Geez, we're only at 14. Wait, I have an idea ... When is the R2 getting Car Play?

Yeah, that's quite a jump across market spaces. I mean, the R2 driving dynamics aren't going to be even close (to the Porsches), but that's not a surprise given the price and target segment. I just can't get behind Lucid, there's been a lot of discussion on the various BMW boards about "What's...

And I LOVE the Scout interior, so "analog", love the material options, etc., er, you know, based on something that's not really real yet :D ... and the thought of a modern BEV SUV with a BENCH SEAT option just makes me smile.

Yeah, it's a bummer, I was super interested in a Traveler, but only a BEV version. I have a very early reservation, but it's so far out at this point (especially after Scout deciding to focus on the EREV first - and I have zero interest in that flavor), I don't even consider it in any of our...

I remotely fire up the AC 15-20 minutes before we get to the car 😎

I just wanted to say, that's just amazingly cool. 😎

Nice writeup. I wanted to reply to the above specifically :) BMW is using an IR treated glass, it's the same tech in our iX and it's insanely good. I wasn't even aware of it, till I experienced it first hand, went out to the iX where it had been parked in the direct sun for a full day (down...

Oh shit, hahaha, I kind of dig on this :D

I can't believe this is ever up for debate. Christmas Vacation A Christmas Story Die Hard And so on, and so forth ... Side note: we added a new July 4th movie this year! Obviously Jaws and ID4, but Cape Fear (the insane Scorsese version) also takes place on/around the 4th :)

Yeah, the Turner Movie Classics forum is a rough place …

This is in the top 10 greatest threads ever :clap: :p

Yep. And of course they said, "I meant ..." which is NOT what they wrote (including misidentifying a car model ... WTF is the 18 :D ) Hahaha, and imagine bringing up a car that started sales in 2013 and had a production run for 10 years (my friends in the UK love theirs, especially the size...

Given how BMW sandbags ranges, I’d suspect this will be a 475-480 mile range vehicle. With what I’d suspect is achievable with the new drivetrain in terms of efficiency, ~3.3kWh/mile, with the big 144kWh battery it calculates to around that range. Yep. And with the M-sport package you can set...

No it's just silly. :CWL: That's their attempt to - and I emphasize, attempt - get froggy with me because I (along with several others) laughed at the hero worship they intro-ed themselves with ("THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD ..." :D ) Like if I thought a Tesla was better (it's certainly cheaper...

Exactly. Run errands, mow the grass, go into work for me when I just don't feel like it.

Ours almost killed us. I had a few phantom breaking instances, I mean, I barely used AP anyway, but a couple that were not a complete WTF unexpected moment. But one time, actually here in Orlando where we now live, we were coming from Universal, wife, daughter and myself (so this made the...

Thanks, terrific deep dive, and the perspective some of us really appreciate. Sounds like they did a solid job for the specific market segment, the R2 offers more of a proper SUV experience (styling, space, some decent offroad/ground clearance). Compromises here and there are to be expected...

They're almost like a bot. Like there's no talking with, it's all like conditional response output.

The Tesla showroom that used to be at the Jax Town Center had a 3-row (not this new goofy L model :D ), and for kicks I climbed in the back. Holy Forkin' Heck. I almost died ... NFW, and 7" isn't going to make that much difference. If you've got a big family, you need space to expand, to...
