Confirms bmw stupidity roll they are now on with grills and design.
Not long ago I wrote on another post bmw will make truck and busses soon for tapping into every possible market profit. This is how it transforms the brand from a desirable one to an ordinary car maker. 10 years ago you could still say bmw was a sporty car maker even though having 116i and 316 with 0-60 in 11 seconds is embarrassing for bmw badge. |

It’s hard for BMW to not want to make a pickup truck
The Profit margins are crazy!!!!! Over 3 million a year in sales The problem is Platforms, second problem is engines BMW needs a heavy duty truck platform.... it makes more sense to partner with Toyota despite their rusty frame issues and try to dip their way into the market that way Second problem is engines..... BMW does NOT have a heavy duty mass produced V8 engine to stick in these trucks. After the N63 woes.... no one would buy it The only engine that may work is the diesel Inline 6.... and American Truck owners love their diesels BMW has to make their truck SIMPLE and RELIABLE.... you want to know why people drive trucks in this country... especially when they don’t have too They are RELIABLE.... if you buy a 2019 Ford F-150 and actually use and take care of it. It would be around still running come 2029 |

The only haulers I see are the black steel wheel Ford F-150 that are all banged up , ever hauling crap from Home Depot. Those Chevy guys? Heck, I see all these roofers carrying nothing in their truck. They get 18-wheelers to deliver the stuff. I saw one diesel truck pulling a partially enclosed trailer with old shingles. Probably not more than 5,000 pounds towing. The Ridgeline can haul that. BTW it can have AWD. Only a 3,000 option. This is the most telling sign there is a truck stigma. I see vans carry more stuff than trucks . (Ladders outside and equipment inside )

Dear BMW,
Wouldn't be better if you will focus on the too many models that we have already, fix the nomenclature properly and not the last make them more reliable??? Just saying.... |

I love BMWs (cars) and Adventure bikes. Hate to be a hater and pile on but that's just a bad combo. Sorry design team but that's a double poser idea.
