Best Selling Cars Around The Globe: Trans-Siberian Series Part 10: Ulan Ude, Buryatia

After a few weeks hiatus, we now continue on our Trans-Siberian railway adventure! Last time I took you to the shores of Lake Baikal, today we are moving across the lake to Ulan Ude, 455 km East of Irkutsk and my last stop in Russia before I cross the Mongolian border to the South. And even though this is one of the smallest hops of the trip, again a fascinatingly different car landscape awaits…

If you can’t wait for the next report, you can follow my trip in real time here, or check out 174 other car markets on my blog.

Donald This is what happens when you make your wife CFO. This is all the result of accounting problems. And could’ve been avoided with a reserve of liquidy.
Rochester When I was young, a number of girls I dated wanted to own a Jeep. I didn't understand (and don't like them myself), but it was certainly something. So good for Jeep leaning into that.
3SpeedAutomatic Elon took his eye off the ball while pre-occupied with "X" (formerly Twitter). Now, Tesla is coming around and biting him on the arse!!In the car business, you need to keep you finger on the pulse. Momentum will only carry you so far. If in doubt, think Lordstown and Fisker. He thinks technology will solve his problems. However, Telsa has moved from premier product to commodity with other manufacturers entering his exclusive domain. Time for Elon to fly back to Tesla HQ and come up with a long term plan. 🚗🚗🚗
Irvingklaws Anymore seems I want a color that is not black, white, red, or some shade of silver/gray. Though I coveted them when I was younger, I also seem to have developed an aversion to all-black interiors. I have a deep negative reaction to any vehicle identifying as "triple black". Don't even get me started on black wheels...I'm not the only one. We're looking to replace my wife's silver CX-5 and one of her few non-negotiable prerequisites is that it be "a color" not in the aforementioned list. It's looking like a Cascade Green Forester with a light gray interior is in her future.
Bd2 I dig it, Pure Pazaak!
