Trailblazer SS and the Saab 6.0 both have the air suspension. Makes for an amazing ride. Course City driving, my SS averages about 12.5 to 13 mpg but on the highway cruzing, I have gotten 23-24 on trips. Course the power is addicting and I can say my SS does just fine at 130+ The only TB I would consider is the SS as it is the same as what was put into the 9-7x, very nice.

Thanks Drew, that makes sense considering I was looking at an old topic with lots of pictures. I am surprised that their storage would not have bigger cache controllers as you can make HD storage almost as quick as SSD by using a controller with 128GB or 256GB cache on the controller. I appreciate all you do as the site has been amazing under your stewardship. Thank you,

Interesting that I found 243 listing for the 9-7x auto when I polled the whole US yet with in a 500 mile range of Seattle WA there is only 4 that are available. Guess SAAB really was not that popular in the NW. Amazing the price for these low mile models.

How old before topics/posts are moved to the HD from the SSD? I clearly see a delay when I go in to pull up things a month or more older. Before everything seemed sluggish but now current topics that are being posted too seem to snap and older topics clearly are sluggish.

Ford News: Harley-Davidson F-150 Drives Off Into The Sunset
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Reader Reviews
Yes I had also Read that Chevy was going to do Niche models for regions. I hope they focus more on a NW Package, Southern Package, NE package, etc. Regional not brand specific as I think they are pretty limited for the most part. -
Great write up and comparison is understandable for those that have read the other two reviews. This is a solid little CUV that like Drew says, needs a little Rehab to take the stage again.

Agree with the updated design language need. They could go for a far more radical futuristic look but I doubt the Swedish mental could handle it.

So far there does seem to be a bit more snappiness to the site, images upload faster, posts faster, have not spent any time in the galleries. Looking forward to Monday.

The story says they wanted to drive real world but they did not. Driving 5 under the posted limit, coasting on down hills streaming behind large trucks, etc. these are not real world driving habits and for most of us, time is money. I am not going to spend hours getting some place just to save a few bucks.

Industry News: Carbon Motors Closes Up Shop
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
I do not see any future companies getting into the auto business unless it is with a hover car or some other flying futuristic auto that would force the established ones to finally move forward to a different product model. -
Ford News: Harley-Davidson F-150 Drives Off Into The Sunset
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Reader Reviews
Limited market and I think pretty much the Over Blown Harley crowd has their trucks. I really do not see a purpose for this truck any longer not to mention the gross orange with black just was not a great combo. -
Cheers or Jeers: Florida is Weird

Agree, the attention to detail is pretty amazing. Interesting that he used the Supercharged Cobalt engine. I wonder if this started as a Cobalt SS. -
Were is the story posted at as I have never seen anything this high and I would think VW would be marketing the hell out of this if it was true.

Too bad it was not a hover craft. It looks like one. -
Want a brand new or slightly used old car?
G. David Felt replied to cletus8269's topic in Auctions and Classifieds
WOW, The pages of pictures is very cool to see and the story. I love the Chevy truck that only has 1.3 miles on the odometer. Less than 2 miles and the truck just sat there. I also love the 25th anniversary Corvette that is still wrapped up like new. -
What was your initial impression?

Industry News: Backup Camera Rule Pushed Back To 2015
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
I totally agree that this rule should NOT be a rule. At least it was pushed back but still this is going to move more and more people from having their own freedom machine to mass transit which is being cut due to the lack of tax dollars and the excessive social programs. States are going bankrupt and they do not see that they are to blame for this total attitude of we have to protect everyone from themselves. This needs to be killed along with all of the other electronic nanny devices. It is not the Governments responsibility to dictate what is and is not sold in a free market economy. Just as I believe it is NOT the states right to tell you, you have to wear a seat belt. Common sense tells me it is safer, but then where are the seat belts on the public buses and school buses.- 7 replies

I personally like an interior that is shiny and slick, but I have mixed feelings on the Headlights, but I do like the Monochromatic look of the black All Terrain. That truck Rocks.

Very Cool, While the blind spots are terrible, the over all quality is amazing for a custom home job and very impressive. Wish they had pictures of the engine bay. Here is a Jelly Bean car with style in my humble opinion. If I could fit in it, I would drive it. -
Dodge News: Rumorpile: Farewell Dodge Caravan?
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Dodge
I think the MiniVan is a dying product. Toyota, Honda and Hyundia might keep them alive in one form or another, but the CUV has replaced the MiniVan pretty much and I do not see it surviving here in the US unlike how the station wagon survives in Europe. Would make an interesting case study as to why the over all space and versitility has lost out to less room and lower gas mileage of the CUV?
