Also, I'm not sure why this thing won't work but I picked up a 2003 Yukon XL Denali last weekend. I love it. It's like driving a private jet around.

If any of you are looking for some AWESOME automotive artwork, check out this guy's work. I've bought a few prints from him and they are epic. Hand drawn with pencil and marker, limited runs, and he does it himself for a living.

Yummy, I have a question for you. How long does it take an order from Petrolified to deliver? My order shipped on February 2nd and I still haven't received it. And my tracking information only shows it left Slovakia on February 4th.

Is this a normal time frame? I thought it would be closer to only 1 month to deliver.

Weird. There was a strike for delivery services down in the US recently, right? Would that have impacted the arrival...? I would fire the seller a question...because, it's about 2-3 weeks if I recall.

I emailed them to inquire about it though. Thanks, hopefully something is not wrong.

No problem. I just got a piece from him on tuesday that I need to get framed up. It's this one:
Fvcking fantastic, would definitely recommend hitting him up if you're interested. I plan to decorate the entirety of my basement with his work.

Exciting news, but did you guys see the new 2016 Kia Optima image? Not bad.

Test drove a TLX V6 P-AWS this morning. Not bad.
Likes
-V6. A Honda V6 has such a distinct sound...miss it. Screams.
-Toys. LKAS is so damn helpful. The brake hold thing is nice too.
-IDS. Each mode has a distinct dynamic to it. Sport+ is incredibly aggressive. Normal is comfortable. Not sure what all the fuss is about on the 9 speed DCT.
-Affordable. The sales guy mentioned a TLX V6 promo that's $0 down/$380 a month lease.
Dislikes
-The dual nav screen setup has a pretty unfortunate UI. Crunchy, circa 2006 looking map. Having to tap the screen four times to turn the seat heater on high is a nuisance, unless that was a user error on my behalf.
-Handling is not as good as my Fusion, though, I'd imagine the handling on the I4 TLX would be a more fair comparison.
-The rearview camera is very low resolution.
I'd get one.

^ Actually, yes, in normal and eco modes, absolutely noticed the lag. Was irritating but I just attributed it to the tranny having 9 gears. In the sport modes, the car was pretty responsive.

TLX is a good car but not a great car. Therefore not worth what they ask for it. I could certainly live with one but I wouldn't spend my own money to go get one.
Fahrvergnügen'd
TLX: It's that kind of thrill ...
Uhh, what kind? That kind?

oh it's dust. I don't know the story behind it.

$380 a month? Not bad. 12k miles? My buddy leased an ATS 2.0T for like $0 down/$430 a month with good credit but it's tiny and kind of has no balls.
