I test drove a BMW X2. My mom was interested in getting it. I am not a fan of the bottom plastic skirt. And the windows are tiny. It feels like you're in a Camaro and the limited visibility is a negative IMO as far as safety goes. I guess it drove all right and had some acceleration. We drove a X3 right after that and it was a lot quicker and overall a better car. My mom ended up going with an Audi Q5.

Hey @quad. I've seen the X2 and it just doesn't impress me. Too small, and it's underpowered. The X3 is a better choice. Audi does a great job IMO with their SUVs. The Audi Q5 is nicely equipped. Decent power. Nice luxury. I considered it before ultimately choosing my Genesis GV-70.

Bicycles!! That's the future ...I'm telling ya!
Ford may as well start selling (taking pre orders) for bicycles.

You can work on them, do wheels and different tires, change gear ratios, brake jobs, mod them , different fenders, horns, seats etc...
No chips required

Bicycles are gonna make great muscle car replacements!

Oh you know they're gonna race them too
A group of friends rent a drag strip every year (well, covid screwed us last year) and one year another guy and I had our mountain bikes with us. The track lets us do lots of things during our rental day so we asked about taking the bikes down. The owner and starter said no problem, and they wanted to see this because it had never been done before. We only did to the 1/8 because the timer wouldn't stay active long enough for us to hit the 1/4 mile mark. Unfortunately I had a red light on that pass LOL

Good one, Nick. God only knows what we'll all be talking about 10 years from now, vehicle wise. LOL.

Have you ever seen their Ford Think Electric Bike from the early 2000s?!

They were pretty rad minus the battery charge.

Meanwhile Chevy dropping amazing middle class family rich. Great videos

Except that GM stole that "idea" for a commercial from a real life experience from a Hagerty employee. The Hagerty employee fixed up a 70 Challenger Convertible, in Blue no less. Happened about 5 years ago


GM totally stole this.
It is what GM does. They do not have an original thought in the entire company.

It’s been done 484737273 times. So what?

It’s 4837372727 times better than what ford is doing

For a happy holiday wish from a manufacturer, it was good.

Different takes from the same commercial. I see a lazy, unimaginative and insincere marketing gimmick. Nothing more.

Meanwhile ford making bullshit memes….

I’d say doing a full blown 4 minute video is a bit less lazy less unimaginative than a meme…

Your bias is showing
