No. Over there it's basically part of MB's "fleet" type business, which doesn't really exist here (other than the Sprinter @ Freightliner).

Yep.
And Nissan announced that they will update the Frontier, but it won't be the Navarra that the rest of the world gets. Instead, it'll stay on the existing frame/platform and get "modern styling" and a more fuel efficient drivetrain.

So, probably a baby Titan with an atrocious turning radius and CVT. Huzzah.

It's the Murican way. Dumb down the truck to hit the price point that :fatty: will shell out cash for.

Nah, went with a Golf R.

You can't avoid the draw of the Golf. Eventually we will all be back to Golfs.

Ah, fair enough. As a DD, it's hard to beat for sure. I miss my GTI, but not the water pump issues it had. Getting back into one though isn't an option, as the Colorado fits a ton of needs, and the wife won't go for anything smaller/lower to the ground than the Rav4 we currently have.

:wrong:

I will admit. A DSG GTI has crossed my mind a few times in the last week. Can't do it though. Nope. Even though it's the car I probably should get.

I get it.

If I didn't have a 150 mile round trip commute I'd have kept the ZR2. The problem with it for me is that it is completely boring to drive and I was getting about 16 MPG in it, the way I drive. The R will be quicker, brake better, more fun, and get better mpg's.

I think the R is the ultimate nice all-around DD vehicle. I'd do the exact same thing in your situation.
