    So the latest report came out with software bugs being the biggest complaint now. One interesting note is that Mini is still at the bottom of the quality pile and for those that talk about how Great MB and BMW are, Caddilac again beats them on Quality. So what gives, is this just bashing to bash or is the study that flawed? http://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/key-car-quality-study-ranks-software-bugs-most-170243393.html Sound off and tell me what you think!

    WOW, Talk about Bloat! I thought the Volt did better than 38 miles on pure electric. Was it not rated at 80? I would have expected the ELR to drop to about 60 due to weight and the traditional luxury bloat, but this is crazy. 38 miles only????? So in rereading the C&D story, I can understand the limitations, but I still have to wonder about the battery pack challenges when you have other companies stating 200+ miles on electric. Why can GM only get so little out of the battery pack?

    Great review, thank you for writting this one up. I am a bit sad to see the current status of the Maxima. This was an amazing sports sedan that actually stood out IMO to the rest of the crowd in the early days as the body style and interior made a mark. Now this just reminds me of the bland Infinity line. I can see it in the Jelly Bean Nose, the rear end is nice but they have lost their Language Mojo. Thanks again for the write up, glad to see the Maxima getting a bit more coverage.

    Why would he do that when you can get fullsize vans, Pickups, Crown Vics, etc. running on CNG fairly cheap? Better yet, why would I give up my SUV's when they have EPA certified Conversion kits and I can get a sweet running ride that is Greener than now!

    Let's just shoot all the bloody lawyers as they seem to be the worst evil around for making everything a gov regulation. The Lawyer attitude seems to be, it is everyone's else problem, you were just a poor victim. Now give me your life savings and your daughter and you can go back to being a Lemming. Sad State of affairs!

    The left side grill does say caddy now that I think about it, but the right side due to the angle the mirror reminds me of the Camero concept

    Very cool, I see BMW benefiting from access to Toyota's hybrid technology and Toyota benefiting from access to real driving machines rather than their dull bland current cars. I would love to see a modern day Supra, I had forgotten all about it. Nissan lost me with their ugly current skyline. Not impressed at all compared to skyline of old years. R34 and R35 are freakin amazing. Toyota could benefit in building a car to compete. BMW could benefit by bringing a exciting to drive Hybrid.

    Ya know that this just drives home the need to move to CNG. Hold a car for 11 years and the amount of money saved if freakin amazing!

    Yea, I am very excited for this movie, the more I review what pictures and writting has been done, the more I think this will be a very good movie! I am interested in how they will tie it all together since no way in hell they wanted Mel Gibson back.

    For this line of car, I think they hit the advertising on the head. This should be about luxury, ease of use and comfort. I believe they have nailed it for the demographic of Customer.

    I've long thought the current Yukon would have looked better w/ the Sierra front end. But I do prefer the Tahoe/Suburban front end over the Silverado. I totally agree and I think most people also, the Chevy Suburban/Tahoe should have shared it's front end with the Chevy Truck. GMC should have ditched the but ugly Yukon nose for the GMC truck nose. This way both truck and suv have family design language that is best and looks freakin awesome! I am excited about the new Full Size SUV Family. I just hope they realize that their is a market for having a diesel in the Suburban/Yukon XL line. Due to Gov Regs, the Whole auto industry has been on a bloat diet over the last 20 years. Time to go on a Diet and loose that mid section!

    Naw, not the Toughest, just people are sold on a cheap ass plastic interior with rubberband and twin body on frame and a Lego Engine. Cheap to fix, so the bulk of people buy em.

    So I missed this in October but so did many others I suspect. A 4th installment in the beloved Mad Max series, MAD MAX 4 FURY ROAD! Features a Bad Ass Holden Ute! http://www.madmaxmovies.com/mad-max-4-fury-road/fury-road-cars/fx-holden-ute/index.html The Interceptor http://www.madmaxmovies.com/mad-max-4-fury-road/fury-road-cars/fury-road-interceptor/index.html Charese Theron is in the movie, new images of her online being bald for the movie and it is being filmed in Australia! Looking forward to this bad ass movie. I hope they do the franchise proud! Interesting Cast: The lovely blonde from Transformers is in the movie too I see. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1392190/ Enjoy!

    Very cool, you say it is an ice cream store, so is it like 31 flavors?

    With traction and stability control my SS is like a tank and damn near boring to drive. Seldom is there a momnet of panic even if you try. I have gotten it to 4 wheel drive over the computer but it take a lot of trying. I do miss my Sonoma 2WD. For years I was a drifter before it was popular. Often I looked like Kinser coming off turn 4 at Eldora. I has a Cobalt with no aids and got my son in it. We hit a parking lot and I did a couple spins with the e brake. It is sad he never really knew a car could do that as he was too young to remember the Sonoma. We live in a world where kids will fail to learn car control buy doing donuts in a parking lot like many of us did. I do agree most drivers today have no snow driving skills and sadly kids do not think to take a car, truck or suv to a parking lot and see just what it will do. I do agree with you on the quality of tires and that does make a huge difference in being able to get around in snow. Sadly, to many idiots with no driving skills live in Seattle and with having been hit twice by Idiots, I now use AWD to make sure during Fall, Winter and early spring I can get around without anyone hitting me.

    I've noticed that, but pretty much anything 4-5 years old that sits outside here has discolored lights due to the evil bright light in the sky 300+ days a year. Yet 14yr old cars in Seattle look brand new even when they sit outside all the time. Guess that cloud cover really works to protect the car!
