Sign of the Times: Badvertising Edition

What do you do when your £50,000 ($82,000) Range Rover requires, in the span of 42,000 miles, the following repairs?

Six front ball joints;
Four front arm bushes [bushings?];
One new seat base;
Front and rear [near side?] struts;
Air conditioning system;
Anti-roll bar bushes; and
A “full” suspension unit

Dwford The problem with Cadillac is that the only Cadillac they sell is the Escalade. Cadillacs are supposed to be large imposing vehicles that are visually impressive. Only the Escalade meets that standard. Everything else Cadillac sells are knock off BMWs. Cadillac shouldn't be in the business of selling compact 4 cylinder crossovers. Dime a dozen vehicles. You'd be better off buying a high trim version of any mainstream crossover than an XT4. Why does a CT4 start at the same price as a Camry XSE? Why do Buicks have nicer interiors than Cadillacs? Why to CHEVYS have nicer interiors than Cadillacs?
EBFlex “Insatiable demand” Pretty sad when even the Uber deranged EU doesn’t want EVs.
Jbltg Had a rental like this once, stock of course. NYC to Vermont. Very smooth and quiet, amazing fuel economy. Not the best for interior space though. Back seat and trunk barely usable.
MKizzy I suppose this means most GM rentals will be Trailblazers and/or Traxes with Encore GX's and Envistas considered an upgrade.GM stopped trying with the Malibu years ago and was merely waiting for its opportunity to swing the axe. Any U.S. sedan GM introduces in the future will probably come from China barring a trade war escalation. At least the plant producing the Malibu it won't close; at least not until GM finds a way to move production of the next Bolt across the border or offshore without touching the UAW third rail.
OA5599 Yes, I will miss it because it is the demise of another sedan. We need people driving sedans instead of dangerous SUV's and unsafe monster-sized pickups. That is, dangerous and unsafe to pedestrians and those in sedans on the receiving end of being t-boned by SUV's and pickups.
