Colorado B/S Thread

Re: The Colorado BS thread

ew. what an 80's abomination.
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

The diesel version would be great to have state side. I'm so tired of "America's" general ignorance to the benefits of small displacement turbo diesel engines in cars and small SUV's. My wife's Kia Sportage can be had in other markets with a small turbo diesel, I would love to have that engine in it. Its been a great car with respectable fuel economy, but with a diesel in it that thing would be a road trip king. When I was stationed at Fort Carson a friend of mine had an early 2000's Golf TDI 4dr. She'd drive to Vegas on a single tank of fuel from Fort Carson. It made weekend getaways that much cheaper/easier.

We're american. We don't like diesels. Unless they're in huge trucks.















I couldn't agree more. I love my buddies Diesel Jetta Wagon. Drove it here from Detroit.

A Fiat 500L with 4wd... no thank you... blech.

its built on the same platform as the new Cherokee too :eyes:
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

No its not, the only thing the two platforms share is the steering rack.

Cherokee is on the compact-wide platform and Renegade is on the small-wide platform.

You are incorrect as it is not the general ignorance of the population but the inner workings of the government at the hands of lobbyists! American ignorance is of the political system designed to fool the average person into beliving that the party system and its electoral college are the bees knees. What do Americans have in common? We all love our football TEAM right .... well why do you think the government has parties? Ignorant Americans think they MUST be one or the other and the other guy is the enemy..... Now they have America lock, stock and barrel because they VOTE that way too! So now anyone with a good heart and ambition gets left out on the street corner looking like a chump because Americans are ....... brainwashed... into beliving that it's Republican or Democrat and all else is not worthy. And again you can't enjoy the benefits of a TDI in more stuff because the government makes it that way paid for by your all powerful lobbyists. :soapbox:.............LOL..... I did it again :lecture:
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

I don't think too many of us would argue with the general thrust of your argument. :laugh:
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

What Mike? You don't agree that our two party system is dominated by a class of elites that represent no one but their own best interests?

Mine was the long winded version :D
 
Re: The Colorado BS thread

I'm confused how we went from a diesel jeep. A diesel Kia. A tdi. To football. To politics.
I understand the points made. But the relevance of the topic and everything boggles my mind
