    Pro tip from a car guy dad: buy the UppaBaby travel bags for the MESA and your stroller. When we were able to travel pre-COVID, the airlines would mangle our bags so badly that I'm still not convinced the baggage handlers didn't chuck them through the turbines, before throwing them in the fuselage. UppaBaby was amazing to deal with! Every time it happened, I sent pics, then within a few days, I had replacement bags and, on one occasion, a replacement MESA. Of course, the airlines were awful and getting reimbursement from them was like getting a Brodozer to move out of an EV spot. Congrats on your baby, Yuri!

    Baby seat test is a good addition for family oriented cars. One thing I noticed is that, while the seat didn't hit the TV, if a big person got in front passenger seat, and backed it up or reclined, they might crush the screen into the carseat (and that does happen). I guess you would just have to be super careful about it

    Well. As a couple of guys who I’ve never heard of testing vehicles...it appears as you learned everything you know from the internet. Things you cover and how you cover them are totally soft and frivolous. Then I thought, that’s what most people today are really interested in, in purchasing a vehicle. Especially one chasing $100k. So good job.😁👍

    Full-size GM SUV line: Overbuilt body on frame truck. Massive power. Capable of significant towing. Can fit 7 large people. Holds a 4x8 sheet of plywood.
    Typical American buyer: Small statured. Commutes to work, alone. Never sees a dirt road. Never tows. Never has cargo beyond luggage and groceries.
    Seems logical.

      @Glasspack40 actually, yes. Driving a fast car slow is pretty pointless. It's actually more fun to drive a slow car fast. If it gets close to 30mpg, that's actually quite good...except that's on more expensive diesel fuel, negating the fuel economy advantage.

    I actually prefer Denali XL over Escalade. As far as the diesel is concerned I just wish it offered more torque over the 6.2L. You really notice the XLs weight when going up hill and accelerating from a stop.
