It's the same story we've been hearing from car-makers, especially those in Detroit, for the past 30 years: "Just wait a little longer and we'll have those new cars and trucks you've been hoping for."
Sometimes, it's the incongruities, not the new models, which make the auto industry so interesting.
Whoever wins the upcoming election will apparently ride to the White House in a brand-new whip, with rear-wheel (or even all-wheel) drive and a marine-cooled diesel engine.
