    WOW, Dodgefan you are amazing with those machines. That is freakin awesome. My 6.5hp Sears lawnmower gets cleaned via hose off all the time and then I do a cleaning at the end of the season, but sadly my deck on my 12 year old mower is starting to rust and during cool weather it is very picky as I have to squeeze the fuel rubber button for the first min or so till it warms up and then it runs fine. I do change the spark plug, oil and air filter each spring along with a new blade, but it has been good for being 12 years old, yet nothing like what you have done. KUDOS to you as those are some nice machines!

    It's only a matter of time. It would be good if you get two different versions of the same product line, to not only have the individual reviews, but then do a compiled comparison of the two.

    I truly hope that I am wrong, but my personal experiance of our over weight sedans with hi power 4 bangers is that they still do not seem to drive like a V8 powered version even when the horsepower and torque is about the same. Wait and see.........

    That looks pretty cool, I just finished using up my cleaning and polishing products I had bought about 4 years ago from Costco. Crazy to have Gallon jugs of stuff, I had to work just as hard to keep it mixed as I did to clean and wax the auto's. Going to try some new stuff I have seen at the O'Rielly's auto parts store and will post results here. Thanks for showing us how it did.

    I agree, while I have been disappointed with the lack of new material, the 1990 version is one of my all time favorites and this movie has me pumped as well. Love the video on how they did those cars and while not a fan of the man they choose to play the lead roll, I do love both woman they got even better than the original movie.

    I agree Olds that it is amazing about them calling it the Town Car. Yet anyone who has driven one I think will find the FWD 4 banger engine to be sadly under powered.

    They might be out selling the Escalade now, but I do NOT consider the GL full size. At 6'6" tall, I find the GL to not as comfortable as my Escalade ESV. The GL is between mid and full size. The interior while nice has seats that remind me of airplanes due to the shortness of the bottom cushion, poor leg support and then over all mid and upper body support. I think they went to the asian rim to get people to test their seats rather than use some big people.

    In all honesty, I think GM has the right focus and the right people working on the ATS-V project that regardless of the count, 6 or 8, we will all be very pleased with the end result. C & G I hope can get their hands on an ATS and then ATS-V to test drive and review.

    Just about all the asian eco box cars are in this list to me. They are dull, plastic bad interiors which remind me of piss poor american cars of the 90's and just about any BMW or MB as they just cannot seem to stay out of the shop for repairs. Do not get me wrong, I think the design language of BMW and MB is very nice, just their quality sucks. Chrysler has it's own issues with the 200, Sebring, Caliber, etc Even the mini van has gone down hill in my opinion.

    It could be built into so many things, Great way to start a project with what appears to be a quality clean foundation of a truck.

    Sweet job on that pour, It will really help you gain a warmer, cleaner and varmit free work zone.

    I think for the most part, people who held off on buying from 2007 to 2011 are now either being forced to have to settle and stay with their old car or if they have the cash are finally trading in.

    I want to add this lusty car to my bucket list!!!

    Sadly this is due to the politicians and lawyers. Blame all those people who are not willing to take accountability for their own actions. Lawyers have so many people in the "It is not my fault" that it has driven variety away.

    Car list: 85-87 Areo Monte Carlo SS in black or Maroon. Custom Duramax Diesel converted 93-96 Suburban SLE, do not like what they did to the interior in 97-99 models. 68 or 69 Camero 57 Chevy Belair 70's Cougar GMC Syclone GMC Typhoon 2001 - 2004 Chevy or GMC Dually 1 ton Duramax Pickup 50's era GMC Truck Current model ZR1 Corvette Current Model GT500 mustang Current Model ZL1 Camero Current Model Challenger 2001 AWD RT Durango for my daughter. Yep, I will pass on all the exotics except for one. Customized R34 Skyline. This is one asian car I loved and drove while going to college in Japan, would love to have one here. I have to agree with you, I always seem to blank out on the older cars before 1960, but I would love a chopped 49-50 Merc, There is something very sexy about the design.

    This good news for Mazda, thought I still do not see them as a stand alone player in the long run. Weird part is that everything I read on their web site really did not give me a clear picture of what SkyActive technology really is till I read this older story on it and now feel I have a good grasp on what this is all about. http://www.autoweek.com/article/20110805/CARREVIEWS/110809919 Masda really needs to change their marketing as their commercials leave one still wondering just what the hell is SkyActive technology? I figure if a gear head like me is left to search for better answers, how is my wife who watched the same commercials and asked what were they trying to sell me? A car or something else called SkyActive technology? That right there tells you their marketing is a failure.

    Seems the fire sales at VW dealerships is working to take market share, but I wonder at what expense to the long term life of the company? Stopped by the VW dealership lot last night and was not that impressed with the Passat. I do not see what people get excited about in these bland appliances.

    So have you actually gone and looked at one in person, sat in the back seat and truly checked it out yourself or is this just part of the reposting of other comments?
  19. G. David Felt
    As expected but I am excited for the new models later this year. Fleet sales I expect to continue to drop off as long as the economy stays weak.

    While Ford Sales are up, I wonder how their big recent recalls will affect them for the 2nd half of the year.
  21. G. David Felt
    Understandable that Dodge has the slowest growth when you consider that building and need for new trucks is way off. Still good to see all divisions are positive. Wish they would not include Fiat in their sales reort.
  22. G. David Felt
    This is good news for Audi and expected as they have great design language and some rather catchy ads that make one want to check out their autos

    Wonder how many family mice will still call you Doofus once you have your wall of Fortitude built!
  24. G. David Felt
    I agree with you HyperV6 about the balance, but just as we have seen BMW move batteries to the rear of the car and other components, I suspect if the ATS goes with a V8 or the TTV6 they will find things they do not need up front and move it to the back under the rear seat or somewhere in the trunk area to keep the 50/50 balance. This way they can truly build a M3 Crusher!

    Wow, I think someone could do a better animation at home than this OSCAR flick.
