Co-worker flagged me down in my work garage last night, his Ody had a dead battery, so I offered to jump start. He asked how old my car was, what kind? He was quite surprised when I told him heading towards 6 y.o., and he told me it's just gorgeous. Sigh.
Call me superficial. Call me iluvmysephia2. Call me anti-breld. As long as you call me.

Next service visit I’m going to chat up service dude about what issues they are actually seeing on them. Hopefully the 2020, the earliest we would get, are more trouble free. And one reason I’m reluctant to get a slightly used one.

Audi RS6 is coming to America!!!
I think we all know that the final outcome of this will be abject failure (from a sales perspective), but I am quite glad to see manufacturers continue to try!
I also saw a Ford Fusion (~2012 vintage) up close the other day, and it reminded me of just how transformative that design was at the time, and how influential it was on this decade of cars. As much flak as Ford often gets on its cars, it has had an astounding influence on the automotive industry for a long, long time.
Was on the phone with Apple tech the other night and they got my iTunes account all synced so now all the 880 plus songs are on my iPhone like I wanted. Took about 20 minutes with the tech until she figured out what I was doing wrong. Turns out I was one step away from getting it done all this time! But it's all synced now and I'm a happy camper.
Still not ready to start the search for new but I do know I'm going back to Japan or Korea next time out. Have done the German thing and though nice enough, I really want "cheap to keep" going forward and has to be able to run on regular petrol. Synthetic oil isn't required nor is a turbo if need be.

The Enclave is a total pig, the Elantra was pretty darn good but the Volvo so far has been sucking down premium at a good clip.... not that I would know since I've only driven it three times but I was told by you know who. Reality set in on that car too, first bill came in the mail and plates are in!
Good news is wife told me she remembered to put premium in it, so there is that.

We would like to use the new features. Nav, car play. Certainly heated seats and stuff like that. So all that needs to be easy to find and use.

I also like The Fast Lane Car reviews.
They get to the heart of their car reviews quickly without a lot of fluff. I like that.
He was insulting and demeaning to me personally. Yes, he apologized after I roasted him. But, still......he came in here with his schemes of how he was going to try and deceive his wife to let him buy a car, and go on an on about how he was a devotee of Dave Ramsey and in the next post talk about how he was underwater on his Kia and wanted to add that negative equity on his next car. Unreal.
I’ve said my peace. I’m finished on the topic.
I think that I want to lease a Porsche Cayenne S. But, it's kind of a ubiquitous vehicle in my part of the world. Obviously, the Cayenne base is the most common, but the S and base are usually visually indistinguishable.
I've also weighed ordering a 2020 GLS 580. However, initial pricing and inventory on them is going to be super unfavorable. If the 2020 GLE's rollout is any guide, the 2020 GLS rollout will be filled with pitfalls.
I'm trying to figure out how much the 2015 GL 63 will depreciate since it is part of the outgoing chassis. I also want to know how reliable they are. I've read conflicting accounts. The 4yr extended warranty is $7580 from my credit union, and a shorter factory warranty from Mercedes is $6995.
I really shouldn't be getting anything.
In other news, low hanging tree branches cracked my windshield. :@
Volvo's new interface isn't all that easy either.
The only "hard" buttons are the front/rear defog and a volume knob. Everything else is done via the screen.
I don't mind it, but it takes some getting used to. They do try and make certain things easy to access, but there are a lot of left/right swipes and various menus to get things done.
For example, to turn on the heated seat you first tap the icon, then select whether you want the seat or the steering wheel.
Climate? Touch the temp setting on the screen, then another popup comes up with a slider for the temp.

Like many windsheilds today, the one on the Subaru has to be "calibrated" due to the Eyesight system. No mobile swap outs for us, nosireee.
2 hours later, new windshield in. I tested the Adaptive Cruise on the drive home and all is working as expected.

Of course...I should clarify...I have no intention of getting rid of it at the same time. I would prefer to sell it myself or to Carmax.
