    After a certain point, there is no point to more gears beyond bragging rights. yeah, or else going up steep long hills will require 3-4 upshifts to maintain speed. i'd be interested in what the difference would an 8-speed make in my car, i can drive from my home town to my "work town", with a tailwind, and got 42+mpg over 95-96 mile trip yesterday.

    so should we expect a 160-190hp number?

    dfelt, it's a high % that i'd agree with you...or the unions. what i hope it is, is more money for R&D. There's being competitive, and there is also coming down to the other's level.

    Still wished for a 3.5L v6 to replace the 3.9L, ..gm, but thats another thread will the power difference be substantial? i looked for the 2015 grand Cherokee, i didn't notice it being outside of ~5 hp?

    "intelligently and pragmatically" ....yeah,....sure....

    looks more like a mazda 3... which supposedly the mazda 6 '16 will be getting something similar. btw, anyone else seen the '16 mazda 6 interior? kinda jelly...

    game changing... if tesla and all can succeed... makes saving GM and chrysler co (at tax payer expense) look more stupid.

    wheel bearing?
  15. loki
    epa ratings seem to be $h!. i got 40mpg recently in my mazda 6 with ~120 miles of interstate at ~65 and ~60 miles of highway and ~70 miles of light traffic town driving.
  16. loki
    guessing the V6 is still basically ford's?
  17. loki
    hopefully the engine doesn't have those bad bearings in them.

    decentralized taxes are better. mileage taxes just try to reduce people's movement instead of advancing efficiency. this would be fine for few miles a day people, but the ones that have jobs that deliver, you're hurting them. if driving isn't a right? then get the money at the dmv. upfront.

    the percent rate would be a sales tax.... just like most everything else has. when i started driving a gallon was ~$1. at a ~$.18 per gallon federal and $.17 for missouri. so if it was a percent.... Mo's would be ~26% federal would be 27.7% today in IL gas is ~$3.65 - the taxes = ~$3.30. make them percentages...3.3 * ~1.53 = $5.04. think we'd be complaining about the conditions of the road anymore if that money was going where it was supposed to? yes i simplified and didn't do anything for the state change... http://www.irs.gov.edgesuite-staging.net/pub/irs-soi/00gastax.pdf i think if this happened rural areas would suffer... or walmarts would start poping up in towns with less than 5K people
