  2. at first i liked the idea of arriving in a Volt mule as good publicity. but since its still in testing, there's still a higher chance it could breakdown then say going in a Malibu hybrid. If a breakdown did happen, the media would make a huge deal about it, which isn't what GM needs now
  3. Anybody know, or know where I can find, how many of the cars sold by the Asian automakers in North America were made here and how many were imported from Asia?
  4. dumb, f@#king dumb. I don't care about company policies, flying in on separate private jets was a horrible PR move. If they can't even figure THAT out, I'm seriously starting to wonder if a loan would really help afterall
  5. if their suppliers went under cause GM went under, you'd be damned sure they'd come crawling, asking for help

  9. same MSRP + lower cost from platform sharing = more profit
  10. totally. must be a Toronto thing haha
  11. 10mi seems pretty useless
  12. oh the irony. the same company that got a massive chunk of money from the Japanesse government to develop the Prius is bitching about the government supporting GM
  13. all the more generation isn't gonna do much if our outdated power grid can't hold up to the expected increase in demand (not just from plug-ins) over the next 10 years
  14. the other problem with prolonged non-use would the gas itself. after a year or 2 the gas will be crap, depending on how much, or even if, any stabilizer was put in
  15. if plug-in's become popular, and given general electricity demand forecast to grow, I hope the power grid is getting a big upgrade soon, because there could be some major problems in the near future
  16. looks great. I wasn't sold on the look in last week pics but in these I think I like it better then the concept. definitely an option for our next car
  17. for once he's got a point, at least in regards to Harper trying to buy votes. He's been shelling out billions in promises since June to prepare for the coming election, and not just to the auto sector Which just goes to show Harper is as bad as the Liberals who he scolded before the last election for doing the same thing
  18. holy alphabet soup batman
  19. initially they did for the refresh but then they granted manufacturing request for use of steel instead of aluminum parts on places like the deck lid which essentially canceled it out
  20. being able to sell a known and "trusted" (by the sheeple) Toyota hybrid for 30k is far easier then selling a new and not so trusted GM
  21. i can't tell if you're serious, but if you are, its the same reason GM is putting Li-Ion in the Volt, they are more compact last longer and have more current capacity didn't think was anything new though. they've been saying the next-gen would be li-ion for a while
  22. 50% owned by Canadians :wink:
  23. there are only a finite number of dawns before the sun goes nova as it were

  25. i like the the front for the most part. not crazy about the look of the back half though
