Looking for Editors

[Drew Dowdell]

I am currently in discussions with a contact at GM for C&G to receive test vehicles for us to review. I am looking for editors to join the staff who would be willing to review and write these articles. I can only accept one or two positions. You must be over 25 years old, have access to a good digital camera <no camera phones>, and be fully licensed to drive. Some ability to write well would be helpful. There may be further requirements.

Add me in Drew. I will love to do that.

<Marketing Mode>

• Lives in Sunny Florida - with a nice private race track 3 miles away from me - if testing requires performance testing.
• Have a place in Detroit, where can directly pick up GM vehicle.
• An open straight stretch of I-75 - ideal for fuel economy runs.
• A good suburban road - ideal for city fuel economy runs.
• Has a 10.0MP digital camera, APS-SLR camera - and in process of buying D-SLR (test drive incentive will drive the desire of getting one soon)
• Never been pulled over by a cop (not kidding)
• Previous go-karting experience
• Motivated, Enthusiastic, Long-term Goal Seeker, Driven

I would love to do it too.

[Blake Noble]

Over 25 ...

[z28luvr01]

I'd do it.

[Nick]

Shame I'm not over 25...I'm in a geographically desirable area to perform car reviews.

[Intrepidation]

Not fair.

Ugh, same. Not even 18 months away, either.

[cletus8269]

is it a survivability/durability review...?

At first I didn't give this much thought, but when I did consider my situation...

• over 25
• fully licensed
• wife wants a nice digital camera (digital SLR type)
• current location provides various terrains (desert, mountains, flat highways, etc. mostly at high altitude) and weather conditions (dry heat, cold, rain, snow, wind)
• I want to take roadtrips anyway
• have been published in a technical journal

[Camino LS6]

Not at this time...

[BigPontiac]

I might be interested in this if the cars were available locally.

This is a very cool idea, and I hope whoever gets the job loves doing it enough to make it a solid, long-lived addition to the site.

I'd qualify, and Im not doing anything right now, but Im Canadian. Im guessing this is a US gig?

Z-06 sounds like a good candidate!

I don't know that it's limited to the US. Send me your qualifications anyway.

Yes I did... Thank you!

[Bimmer325]

Yeah, I'm a journalism major...but 5 years too young.

[FUTURE_OF_GM]

I could do it... As long as it's local.

And I do spend a fair amount of time driving, with the 2 hour (each way) commute from my apt in the city to the house in the mountains.
