    Morning all, Has anyone else upgraded to IE11 or Firefox 25? Are you running on windows 7 or Window 8 or 8.1? I have IE 11 and Firefox 25 on both Windows 7 and an upgraded 8.1 system. If you right mouse click on the quote button in a forum post and say open in a new tab, everything works fine and you can reply and post. Yet if you just click on the quote button it will take you to the field to type your reply but be blank. No quoted post will appear and the only way to make it work is to do the right mouse click and open in a new tab for quote replying. If you just click in the reply field to post a comment, it is a 50/50 chance that you will see your posting comment. It is easily fixed by clicking elsewhere in the browser window and then clicking back in the comment field and you can then type your comment and post it. Seems to be a loss of mouse focus but not sure if this is a browser issue for both browsers or maybe an incompatibility issue with the forum since both browsers are so new. Hope someone else has seen this issue, both my work laptop and my home desktop exhibit this behavior.

    Actually, I have been reading and researching both the claims from the environmentalist and from the power companies and from people who have actually had fracking wells on their land. I admit there are those that have had bad problems with Fracked wells, but there are more successful and especially in the last 13 years fracked well's than the leaking destructive issues of before then. I still stand by NG and especially CNG. Safe and much cleaner alternative to go to from Petrol. Like electric cars perhaps. I find the irony hilarious. Not afraid of electric cars at all, just they are not ready for mass transit and cannot handle cross country driving. They are just a luxury golf cart for inner city commuting.

    Over all a very nice truck, Love the interior and it's clear connection to the full size trucks. Clean logical and well laid out. Very nice job. Excited to see the GMC version, this is a nice Chevy Family Truck, I want the Professional Grade!

    I forgot just how ugly that car is.

    Nice, looks like a photoshop job to get people reaction to maybe having a Willy Edition.

    Most Fracking complaints come from data of the 80's and 90's and I covered this in the alternative energy forum. In fact the Hypocrisy is how many people including the idiot Beatle wife in NY spreads false information about Fracking and yet use Natural Gas to stay warm, power, cooking, etc. Many farms have been saved especially in NY and Pennsylvania due to having NG wells. People have been able to hold onto land that has been in the family for generations rather than pack it up due to the inability to make a living off farming. The few areas that have had problems are again from old wells in the early days before they solved the problems of protecting the under ground water and sealing off the water supplies from the natural gas supplies. But then some people just seem to be afraid of anything that moves society forward.

    You can call me what ever makes you happy. CNG has it's faults, nothing is perfect, but it is a logical safe step away from petrol to a better energy source eventually for auto's. Everyone to use your statement blushes over how clean EV's / pure electric auto's are without touching on it's BLACK side. Yes in the early days Fracking had problems. Like any science, they figured out how to correct the issues and make it fairly safe for use as an energy source. Electrical also has these same issues such as the toxic settlement ponds from Battery production. Yet it is almost impossible to get anyone to accept and acknowledge the down side of the battery movement especially the destruction of the salt fields in Chile to extract the Lithium. So to you your quote DodgeFan:

    The Bar-b-que engines would be a pain to keep clean and nice looking.

    Bummer, having gone to Kobe University and the family I lived with spoiled their son so I was able to drive both his R35 Skyline and his Japan version Ninja and they were amazing. The R35 was so roomy inside even for a big guy, but I can see with the drive to tight fitting seats and the bigger center consoles, you loose the ability for big peeps to fit.

    WOW, What an Ugly Car and the interior is hideous. There is nothing I can actually say that I like about this Single Buck Tooth Grilled monstrosity.

    Sweet, I actually like what I see, with the Baby Duramax Diesel, this should Rock!

    Interesting, I like the bulging wheel wells, but the coupe look is so dated and old. The front end styling is very conservative. Not a fan of the front end at all.

    G. David Felt Staff Writer Alternative Energy - CheersandGears.com Gaining little attention in the main stream news but giving a nice bump in stock price to Chrysler, GM, Honda, Fiat and a few energy companies. Chrysler showed off a new RAM 2500 that had a pair of CNG tanks that are in the shape of lungs storing CNG in many different compartments. The new tank design in the RAM truck gave it a 255 mile range on CNG. With the 35Gallon Petrol tank, this now gives the RAM Bi-Fuel Truck a 745 mile range when configured in Bi-Fuel form from RAM. The longest range currently available from an OEM for a CNG/Petrol Truck. The idea is it would allow the ease of making various shapes for CNG fuel holding with increased storage removing the limitations on traditional CNG tanks. Full story here: http://www.autonews.com/article/20131112/OEM04/131119977/chrysler-mimics-human-lung-to-broaden-cng-use#axzz2kYb3krjY Thoughts? What do you think, will this help speed up adoption of CNG?

    Good to know that the driving is excellent, Just wish the body style would attract me like a metal to magnet.

    My gut tells me the SS will get pand once it comes out as it has been too long in the press of coming and not really coming. I call this DOA!

    For all the Money Honda put into F1 racing, I sure do not see a payback in terms of translating that technology into current selling auto's. I agree with your list Drew, I wonder if they will use TT on any of these engines as Performance engines?
  23. G. David Felt
    IMHO, yeah, can be. Its sure a clean fuel that the engine will run longer. I have one of the kits and its pretty simple. I never used it because I didn't locate a decent tank... and back then, refilling stations where nonexistent. I bought it because in NJ you can forgo emissions if you have an alternative fueled car. Every so often, you find the old kits popping up on eBay. Usually removed from a western vehicle undergoing restoration that no longer needs the kit. I just like big old boats... If I were to win the Powerball some day, my first stop is not going to be the Cadillac dealership, but Ebay motors. I'd love to have some of the mid to late 80s Detroit iron, but power it with natural gas instead of gasoline. Totally agree with you Drew that the old Iron is awesome, one reason of what I am doing with 94 GMC SLE Suburban. Big, Roomy and looks great even now 20+ years later.

    Money seems to always be the key element, some will probably say the carbon fiber is too expensive but I suspect Oil companies are more than willing to pay auto companies to keep certain technologies off the street to maintain their monopoly on our pocket books. This is why we need to shake things up by going to CNG, Hybrids (battery plus Generator) versions etc.

    Be cool to have the seats from a hummer or or truck, captain chair made into outdoor chairs for the deck. Fun to also have the bed of an SSR turned into a hot tub or cooling tub based on the season of the year.
