I agree with GMTruckGuy that I would love an H3T inspired GMC HighRider truck, crewcab version. -
Karma News: Fisker Finds A New Home, Promptly Announces Bankruptcy
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Karma
So the tax payers take a bath to the tune of 139 million and the idiot ex CEO and his Chummy Chinese friends end up with the company minus the debt, building an electric auto that is questionable at best. Sad Day for the hardworking tax payers in the US.- 5 replies

My Son's Patriot is a Trail Rated version which he tested out this summer and went off road and it proved to be very durable. No scratches or dents but did get a rock chip in the paint on the drive home from another auto throwing a stone. Jeep built the FWD bias 4x4 Patriot very well. I like the space inside for big guys like me.

It is so rare to see this car that I doubt anyone other than gamers would care if it was killed off. EVO X is an animation fanboi game car. I wonder if they make any money on the few they build?

My Son loves his patriot, wishes for a bit more power but does love it. Drove awesome this weekend up the mountain to go skiing.

Personally this will sell initially to those Koreans that want to support the motherland and a few others that like it over other luxury auto's and are not hung up on names. Yet in the long term, I do not see this being successful.

Biggest one day stock drop due to auto Fire in Seattle Suburb
G. David Felt replied to G. David Felt's topic in Tesla
Considering the numbers of auto's I see driving around that are cigarette pack high off the ground like the Tesla and these Petrol models do not go BOOM. I think this double the ride height so it cannot strike trash on the road is not the smartest fix, but probably the fastest and easiest for them right now compared to building a safer battery cover. -
Biggest one day stock drop due to auto Fire in Seattle Suburb
G. David Felt replied to G. David Felt's topic in Tesla
That was very funny Ocnblu. So I wonder how much reduction in range the Tesla S will loose once they increase the ride height from the existing 3 inches to 6 inches or so the current chat online is indicating with the new software update that will double the ride height. Some are saying as much as 20% reduction in range. Thoughts? -
Vehicle: Chevrolet Avalanche (2013)
G. David Felt replied to FAPTurbo's topic in Member's Rides Showcase
Beautiful Ride, nice going. So you bought it and took it from the US to Vancouver BC? Is it really that much cheaper to buy vehicles in the US over Canada? -

GM at its perennial best. At least they are reacting faster than they normally would before the bankruptcy. -
Aftermarket Gauges and Meters
G. David Felt replied to Rvinyl.com's topic in Product Questions and Reviews
So in reading online, you can install the gauge inside and run the wires out of the fire wall and then you need to locate where the oil temp gauge is on the engine so that you can splice the wire into it and this way the OEM gauge would still work plus your new flashy gauge. The sensors in most cars are able to report all the info, just that it is cheaper to have dummy lights to say too hot or a generic gauge that shows cold to hot. -
Exactly. Unless they mean the Volvo S80 if that still has a V8. Because the V8s in an E550, 550i or Jaguar XF would smash this thing. And you can get 38 mpg from a 5-series or A6 and 45 mpg from an E-class so they didn't win their either. These Japanese companies bet on hybrids and they aren't really the answer. They could have done a skateboard base so a much bigger battery, then use pure CNG or BioDiesel Generator and have the auto fully driven AWD by electric motors. This would be Rockin!

Nice Looking Gauge, but never used them myself. Good Luck, let me know how it goes. -
Nothing New here as Subaru is sticking to their game plan and Toyota is going with their game plan. Same Marketing fluff. Be interesting to see who wins as I suspect they will want both product lines to have it to reduce over all cost.

BFG All-Terrain T/As Rock! I have them on all my SUV's except the Trailblazer SS and Escalade ESV. Trucks and SUV's should have this awesome tire and nothing else. -
I agree especially considering that the auto's run worse on Ethanol blended fuels. All my auto's run rougher when Washington state in October starts having the Ethanol blends being put out. So far the studies do not support the supposed extra cleaning of green house gas since it has ethanol in the blend. The auto's run rough and it is just not impressive.

Very nice review and impression, guess you fall into the German Fan Boy camp, I find your comment about Cadillac to be interesting considering that at the Seattle Autoshow, I was not impressed with either the I3 or I8 electric concepts. In regards to German interiors, Your comments about CTS are the exact same comments I have about BMW. So perception is everything, CTS kills the 3 series IMHO.

This was shown at the Seattle autoshow and received plenty of positive press and people likes but was not an available package yet. I wonder if this is the blacked out edition as it was a sweet looking ride!

I will hand it to Nissan, they did a nice Job on the Nismo Sentra. Juke, Hello, this is just freaking butt ugly! Nothing they can do will make this an attractive CUV for the masses, this is an extreme extrovert cuv who will accept ugliness to just continue getting attention even when it is negative attention.

I knew I had heard K900 before and that it was not a car. Sure enough, Lenovo had the first K900. Car over all sounds nice and to me is a knock off of the BMW but the Name is Lame! KIA, WAKE UP WITH SOME STARBUCKS and get a REAL NAME!

Interesting, I can see aspects of this showing up on models in the Lexus family but the over all complete package is too Anime / cartoonish and you are right that front grill is just hideous, but then many have found the Predator Grill to be a bust. I wonder how long they will stick with it before accepting the sales losses and finally updating the nose of their auto's to not be so offensive.

AWESOME! I want to go out with it.
