  1. Just doesn't have the name cache that Denali, King Ranch, and Laramie do. I'm thinking they should have used Scottsdale or Cheyenne instead.
  2. I'd get Bosch Icons and RainX washer fluid, same effect for much cheaper
  3. Hello and welcome. We have at least two other posters from Portugal I believe!
  4. Or get a Google Device with Google Software and it all works, no muss no fuss. The problem is the carriers and the phone manufacturers putting bloat on there. But that problem is also an advantage. It also means that I can customize my phone in an infinite number of ways. and I still have a bigger dick screen.
  5. That sounds like a shift interlock problem. Try shifting in and out of park a few times.
  6. Well it is also that the cheaper cars are no longer total penalty boxes. A Sonic or Elantra isn't something you buy because it's all you can afford, it is something you buy because you like it too now.
  7. I think it has more to do with the fact that the purchases that were deferred a few years ago can no longer deferred.... that 1998 Accord/Camry/Impala just can't be kept on the road much longer.
  8. Welcome! Glad to see all the new people signing up lately!
  9. Teslas all over NJ and CT... more Teslas than Volts actually.
  10. Who blinks first...?
  11. Fap, you can get a replacement launcher without rooting. I use Nova Launcher on mine in place of TouchWiz.
  12. 4.5tt hmmm, so the Elmiraj motor could be real.
  13. I.hope it doesn't have the 9-Speed from the Cherokee...
  14. Flat paint is a repair and maintenance nightmare. Hand wash only. It gets a ding and it's done.
  15. 4 cylinder flagship can still sell in China were those type cars are mostly chauffeured. Cadillac has an XTS with the Turbo 4 and I believe bmw does too.
  16. You'll find plenty of friends here I'm sure. Welcome on board.
  17. I was speaking to the Volt's propulsion capabilities. The gas engine being there isn't a statement about electric cars, it is a statement about electric car recharging infrastructure. When charging facilities are even half as plentiful as gas stations, the need for an on-board regeneration capability becomes unnecessary.
  18. Lots of Taxis.
  19. I'm probably going to be springing for a new set of Michelins on the CR-V in a week or 3. Only got 30,000 miles out of the 80,000 tread wear life rating, so hopefully Michelin will be picking up most of the tab.
  20. Why wouldn't it be? The Acura NSX is considered a super car and the GTR blows that out of the water.
  21. I'm on my 3rd Android here and only on the first one did I have those problems, but it was a very early device. The second device was a great phone crippled by a horrible network. I've been very happy with my 3rd one and my tablet as well.
  22. I dunno, the tC is a pretty decent car too, but there is no reason it couldn't be a Celica.
  23. The Tesla Model S is in the high $60k range, will out perform a 550i, and can recharge in 30 minutes. The Roadster could walk away from an Audi R8 like it was standing still. A Volt can do 0 - 60 in the same time it takes a 2.5 powered Malibu and that is mostly software limited. I'd say we're a lot closer than you think.
  24. Although how as the E250 Bluetec? One day when I no longer want a big engine, that 45 mpg is going to be really tempting, on a 22 gallon tank I'd fill up once every 5 weeks I bet. Atrocious... a civilian issue Checker for the new century if there ever was one. The interior is dreary, engine refinement is poor, though acceleration is very good for what it is. The engine refinement is so bad, right in the 2,000 - 2,500 rpm range under heavier acceleration, there is a hard vibration noise not unlike an old Civic with a loose catalytic converter heat shield.
