#Chicago2014

After two days of walking the floor at this relatively quiet show, here’s a recap of what has happened:

BMW has debuted a diesel-equipped version of its flagship 7-series sedan in the US. Jack will not be driving one.

Nissan has added a few “sports car-inspired” design cues to its practical grocery getter.

Two new, performance-oriented Volvo models made their North American debut at the Chicago Auto Show.

The consensus regarding the 2015 Lincoln Navigator seemed to be unanimously negative. I know this because Doug DeMuro wrote an editorial saying he believed in Lincoln, until he saw the new Navigator, and everyone agreed. Which is what they seem to do. As long as he writes in that suspiciously self-deprecating manner. And broken up sentences, just like this.
