  1. Very Cool on the Cut Down Wrangler.
  2. Hope those little mutt's of a pickup come here with the 2.9L baby Duramax Diesel. That would make them Rock!

    Naw just like any raised 4x4 just step on the tire and hop in!
  4. So much for an open market, let the market forces decide what people want. Seems the politicians are dictating what we can and cannot drive. Holding onto older auto's for what you want will become the norm for those of us that love auto's and love to drive. Sadly the roads are going to become more dangerous due to poor road conditions and distracted drivers who really do not care about driving.
  5. Interesting hump in the middle of the hood and when you blow up the photo's you can clearly see some musculare bulges over each headlamp. Wonder what the while plug in in the lower left black grill area next to the driving light is for? While the cameo does a good job of covering the car, you can clearly see changes are coming.
  6. Interesting, I hope beside adding performance to the GT-R Nismo that they also bring back some of the heritage design of the R34/35 Skyline.
  7. Maybe it is to tow the Fords and Dodges out of the way when they break down!
  8. Anyone notice the Blue with White top Olds in the background or the Corvette?
  9. Very Cool, Glad she got into cars.
  10. Both my old xbox and xbox 360 is wisper quiet compared to the PS3 and the PS3 has Lag on booting up and responding during loading of games, etc. XBOX clearly beats them hands down and has a far superior online experiance. From what I have seen via friends that are working on XBOX 720, people are going to really like it and the new updated Kinect. They are truly taking it to the next level. I am very excited for this.
  11. Congrats, when things settle down, look forward to pictures.
  12. Polarizing as a Love Hate relationship would be and just could end up being a smash hit. I asked my son who bought a 2012 Liberty and he said he would pass as it does not have the traditional Jeep look that he loves and why he got the Liberty, yet his girl friend said she loves it and always thought Alex's Liberty was old looking. Again, this is the Y generation, both 25 years old, so I think they will be successful but to the youth martket more than the older market.
  13. FORD -Fix Or Repair Daily.....
  14. Do not like the Fords, The style just does nothing for me with that big black plastic mouth. Chevy while nice, is too much deer in the headlights look. Probably more of a Gen Y car than my era. Buick wins hands down. OcnBlu, as my dad and granddads always told me, working a bit longer to save a bit more to get a nicer item that will last longer makes it all worthwhile. You have solid transportation now. I strongly suggest holding off, saving a bit more and then get the Buick the way you want. You really will be far happier with an auto you have implied you will hold onto longer than your current churn and burn of new cars. Good Luck Excite to hear what you do.
  15. Flounder
  16. any comment..? Tradesman Roof Racks Those are nice and durable roof racks. They are popular here in the Seattle area for outdoors camping.
  17. Jeers, While a nice try and interior was done pretty well, it looks like it has a broken back. Something weird with the bed to cab connection point as it looks like it is bent up.

  19. And while it sells ton's people will not complain about it's sardine tightness that cannot really deliver comfortably real humans. A coworker has a new RDX and while he loves it he also said anyone over 5'8" should not bother due to how tight it is. Course he and his wife are both in the 5'5" zone.
  20. Camino, I agree for those of us that love to wrench with the right car, you could pick up a cheap car and have a sweet ride once you fixed everything damaged by the water. My concern is that these auto's will make their way into the grey market and unsuspecting people will buy them and then curse the auto company for making garbage cars due to all the problems when these auto's should be just crushed by the insurance company or at least they should be marked as a water logged auto. Buyer Be Ware.
  21. I doubt it very much that real people will see the 15% gain. If you drive a supercharged or turbocharged engine with a light foot you can see these gains, but then you might as well have a normal asperation v6 as you are not using the power to get moving. Most people will live in the power zone and suck up fuel and the real world gas mileage will be far worse than the normal 5.0L v8 was.
  22. Cash was one problem during that time for any company to deal with, but the others based on my own reading was dealing with the Government that wanted guarentees for the workers. The unions who wanted senior based promises for work, etc. There were many reasons for the failure.
  23. Very cool, I suspect someone who was too fresh in the corvette program 20 years ago is now senior in that program and was able to push through their version/vision of the corvette. I like both. Still wish they had not incorporated those rear vents into the tail lights as it looks like sad eyes.
  24. Sad, Lots of potential, but the Unions and Mgmt are to blame for the death of SAAB. They were starved of quality products, to many lemmings just sitting around taking a pay check without really trying to make a difference and grow the company. Then you have the stupid unionized plants that just sucked up money. All they could see what instant gratification rather than survival and eventually growing jobs. Nice history notes, nice concept cars which I am sure someone will poach some ideas from for their own auto's. I am surprised we have not see China Car companies poach more ideas from dead car lines. Imagine if you had GTO's inspired auto's from China. Hummer inspired 4x4's from China or some other country.
