- Lorenzo If Stellantis had any cojones, they'd have re-named it "Adolfo" after the Italian Business Minister. Let him argue that's an Italian name.
- FreedMike Very nice.
- Lorenzo Ford finally beats out Tesla at something: fixing production flaws. When the flaws are obvious, you get to fix them earlier.
- Kwik_Shift_Pro4X Its a wagon I'd like to have, but it's a VW that can be a decent hit or a terrible miss. I would not want auto nor with a sunroof. That's a tough find.
- Lorenzo If only it had an automatic, it could have been sold at any senior center in America.
