:butwhy: it’s only 184 inches long and it has a motherfucking 3rd row? It’s fucking useless.

It looks like a vehicle made for Guadalupe after Javier made it big with his construction gig and is now supervising ppl on the site.

:disgust:

The euro one is great the us one is just a pile of beige garbage
maybe exterior wise they are the same. I'm checking the turkey and us vw website to see.

I checked Turkey website, no signs of 3rd row, they don't even sell the Atlas neither in Turkey and Germany.

When I checked German website, there are 2 types of Tiguans (size wise), Tiguan and Tiguan Allspace (which what we have)

So it isn't completely different in US cause it's also available in Germany as well, looks like no regular Tiguan :facepalm:

I was hoping Cheeto was going to :nuke: them... but no... that shit is annoying as fuck. Make cars that ppl want period. Who cares about this MPG bs. Ppl are buying TRUKs in doves anyways CAFE has been incredibly useless.

The sole thing driving MPGs up is gas prices not .gov regulations. Ppl vote with the wallets. :disgust:

I don't think I've ever read a post from you that I agree with more.

Just how some sports cars have back seats that can’t even hold a :doge: ? Makes sense
that's probably for insurance purposes I guess.

The American Tiguan is essentially equivalent to 750Li versus regular 750i, wouldn't really call 100% as they sell it over there as well.

The Atlas was designed for the US market and is made in their Tennessee plant.
