Ask Me About: 2019 Buick Regal GS
I think Kia markets the Stinger as a Grand Tourer, the G70 has a tighter suspension and is presented as a sport sedan by Genesis.

Chicago 2019: 2020 Subaru Legacy Preview: Comments
I don't know, I was really underwhelmed by that combo in the Outback, I think it was in 2016 when I drove it after trying out a Sportwagen with the 1.8T. Just felt like an old massively understeering car from 1999. Softly sprung, CVT, larger ground clearance did not do it any favours I guess.

Ask Me About: 2019 Buick Regal GS
Subaru had a V6 Legacy GT around 2005.. I think BV had one for a while. I'm looking forward to reading how the Buick compares to the Stinger GT.

Lexus News: Lexus Plans on Building Out their F Performance Sub-brand
I could see them doing a performance variant of one of their CUVs, but not on the current generation products. Perhaps in a few years if the next gen RX arrives on a new platform.

I sometimes search for old online photos of my neighbourhood, the best ones available are of the public spaces like libraries and fire halls, as well as of the buses that ran in the 20's, shortly after the neighbourhood was established. I wonder how many of these buses are preserved somehere. TTC had a lot of GM buses in their fleet from the fifties to the eighties. I'm partial to the streetcars though. A few times a year in the summer they bring out the old models on a few routes for a weekend.- Tesla Laying Off 7% of Workforce

Currently, I live in an inner suburb and work in an outer suburb, so traffic is not too bad going opposite of what the majority do, 30-40 minutes drive, evenings tend to have more traffic than the mornings. Thankfully I commute east in the evenings so sunsets are not a problem. My wife hops on the subway to downtown and has a similar length commute. Her immune system seems so much better than mine with all that exposure she has had over the years .- Industry News: NADA's CEO is Concerned About Consumers Being Priced Out
Most young people here aspire to live downtown and have a walk or short subway ride to work. Of those that can afford to live downtown (our 650 sq ft condo rents out for $2400), few can also afford the parking, insurance etc for a car, so we don't even own a parking spot for that condo (was 75 grand If we wanted one IIRC).- Infiniti News: Infiniti's New President Admits QX30 Is A Flop
One of the perks of getting a new car is Android Auto and/or Apple Car Play.. Why spend on a new vehicle that doesn't offer either? Might as well just go the CPO route.- Infiniti News: Infiniti's New President Admits QX30 Is A Flop

We have only had 2 or 3 inches of total snow this winter season so I'm actually sort of looking forward to the storm this weekend. The cold coming with it I could do without though.
