  1. Weird, it looks the same in both the latest versions of Firefox and IE 10. Not sure but maybe my company has added a filter on the firewall. Will try changing some things.
  2. While I know they did it to stream line the auto's for MPG, I will say I miss the lip that used to keep water from coming off the car into the door way.
  3. We'll about time they finally upgraded the Defender. Course be interesting to see what they do to replace it.
  4. wow, someone was paid off for this to go there again. What a poor excuse for a auto.
  5. Welcome back, sounds like you have been living in interesting times. Wish I could see the picks, but I figure they will show up some time in the future. This is how lately pictures have been showing up for me.
  6. Sweet Ride, those were amazing auto's.
  7. Sweet Looking Ride, thanks for the update, glad to hear over all it is doing well.
  8. Nice Message of consistency from Audi. CNN Anchor is a moron.
  9. Go to the VOLT as your Hybrid platform and drop eAssist in everything. Pathetic platform eAssist. I would never buy an eAssist car unless they gave me one.
  10. So down to deciding between the Samsung S4 or Nokia Lumia 1020. Decisions Decisions Decisions
  11. I have a Toyota Camry Hybrid 2012 and it has the largest opening doors I have ever seen on a car; tall and wide and open real wide. It has more front seat space than my old Lucerne and it was really big. Two problems with this. 1) While it is big for many, I have tried the latest version of Camry and while roomy to a point, it is not for tall people as once I got the front seat so that I was comfortable, no one could sit behind me and I really do not like sitting partially reclined. 2) I support American jobs first before anything else and will buy from GM and Ford as long as they exist to support our country. So Toyota will always loose out.
  12. I think sport can be used if done properly. A CTS V sport just is wrong in my book. If they want to do levels then have the following. ATS ATS Sport ATS V CTS CTS Sport CTS V SRX SRX Sport SRX V XTS XTS Sport XTS V Escalade Escalade Sport Escalade V Or just replace them all with Touring instead of Sport.
  13. WOW, Dated looking, old and sounds like a sewing machine. Wonder how much that is costing the tax payers. The company should have been left dead. I do not see them surviving in the long run.
  14. I wonder if you had converted MiniVans to CNG if it would make it even thought the MPG does not change but very clean to run.
  15. So if all Taxi's need to be AD capable, then we still have plenty of options with Mini Vans added to the Transit and NV.
  16. I have found staying with the same insurance company for a long time actually does not help you in getting cheaper rates, I have found changing companies and having them compete against each other has allowed me to keep strong solid insurance with very low rates. Right now I am in year 4 at Costco and their Ameriprise Insurance beats everyone else when I go and get quotes. For 4 SUV's, I am paying just about 600 a month, I suggest you shop around as I think you can get cheaper insurance especially once you taking other factors into account like also covering your home insurance or if renting, renters insurance.
  17. Good Point, but then what I have read on the charging is that it is not good to do short charges. Maybe an article on battery life and how charging cycles affect their life and how the Auto Companies are suggesting best charge practices.
  18. Yet here in the Pacific Northwest where we have plenty of Tree Huggers, you find most Charging stations covered in Trash bags so the public can park. BIG Waste of money on installing charging stations when you can charge at home. http://www.cheersandgears.com/_/alt-fuels-news/fumes-tax-payer-supplied-charging-stations-ar-r1171 Remember I did this story on them and posted the pictures which still today have the garbage bags on them. In this case, the overbuilding of charging stations is taking valuable space away from the average auto, especially at the Park N Rides. Might be different in other areas of the country, but here Electric is not taking off even with our cheapest electric rates in the country.
  19. If they can use the Prius for a Taxi, then the VOLT should also be a taxi. Best use of the VOLT power-train would be for GM to build their re-badged Nissan Mini Van with the VOLT power-train and use it for Taxi Service.
  20. Maybe that is why they only sold 150, to the actual Collectors and no real buyers / users of a luxury subcompact.
  21. This problem has shown on all cars today and for the most part I have settled to the fact that SUV's are the only thing for me that fit big men.
  22. This was no surprise for that ugly turd of a car. It was an Insult to the Aston Martin Family. Good thing it was nothing more than a dressed up Toyota as the few buyers will at least now get service and parts from your local Toyota dealer for these ugly ducklings.
  23. If they know bestest, then they should put their Lazy ARse in front of a firing squad and take it like a man since they are protecting the 1% of special interest rather than the American public for who they are supposed to be working for. Time to clean house and kick em all out.
  24. I see your point Drew, I just hope sales pick up and GM gets off their butt and moves this into CUV's and other auto's as I think the Public will buy more when they have more choices.
  25. That's cause the loose parts tightened up due to the cold. After all everything shrinks and tightens when it is cold out. LOL
