Love the color, it is a beauty so is the Smoke Grey one behind it. Thanks for posting.

Yea think Livery would be happy with FWD or would they go AWD? I can see fleet sales for this also, but I still think it will be allowed to run it's course and die rather than a long ongoing run unless they change it over on the next major frame design to AWD/RWD.

Very Cool, you will have to get a picture of the car and post it for us. Plus do a review and let us know what you think. I do not think anyone has done a review on the Soul yet on this board.

8 is more than enough to look into the wrangler, but for the cruze it needs to be 10-12? I have no issue with looking into something with two incidents, the trouble is that people hear of an investigation and they jump to conclusions. I keep the same number to the Jeep, I said with 8 it is starting to be a bit much and if no one was asking questions then someone should. I would do the same if it was 8 cruzes and 10-12 for sure. I just feel that the gov is jumping to fast at times to point at a problem as the manufacture when they have no idea if it is sloppy maintenance by the consumer. Gov is NOT to be the I protect you from everything and not hold people accountable for their actions. Yes we need to hold companies to a high level of safety and this start of an investigation could have been and should have been done quietly or for transparency purposes, They should say the Media cannot report it till they have some facts to go on. I agree that the Media will sensationalize it and people will jump to the wrong conclusions. Things like this and all the stupid nanny devices. If people cannot get up early enough to wash, dress and eat before going into work, then take the freakin bus and loose the ability to drive. I am so tired of people trying to do everything behind the wheel other than drive and then complain the gov did not protect them from their own decisions. Nanny devices we can do without: Lane avoidence Cruze breaking Blind spot monitoring Seat Belt noise till it is freakin buckled. There are times and places you do not need a seat belt. Yea the list can go on, but the point being, when do you stand up and take responsibility for your own actions?

Cheers or Jeers: 26,000 Mile 1977 Buick Regal
G. David Felt replied to wildmanjoe's topic in Auctions and Classifieds
Having grown up with a father who had a repair garage, a game he always played especially at night was to identify cars by the headlights. Probably with two grandfathers that both only Drove Cadillac till their deathbeds, this is why I see cadillac on this car. I know the headlights are a generic item GM used on many cars, but that is what I see when I look at the front end before I notice the grill or emblem. I see cadillac eyes looking back at me. -
Welcome back Ocnblu, glad you got recharged and have brought your enjoyable thoughts back to the boards. Good luck to your family on their new ride.

The XTS is a MUST have Car for Cadillac as there are a ton of Baby Boomers who loved the DTS but wanted a modern turn of the full size sedan for their retirement. Till GM can finish mapping out their road for a complete RWD sedan family, the XTS will suffice as a stop gap measure and you would be surprised by both old and young who seem to really like the pictures of this car. I think GM did the right thing in prepping to have a stop gap measure while they work on nailing down the ATS and Continueing to build up the CTS lines.

Cheers or Jeers: 35 Mile 1978 Oldsmobile Toronado

SWEET, Like a Rinestone Cowboy!!! That is a pretty nice ride! -
At first glance, my gut said Jeers, but then after reading about the truck and what is there, it really is a true work horse that has had allot of love to get it back to where it is and what it can do. For the price you will not find another truck that can do what this one can do. Cheers for a reasonable Beast of a Power Wagon in true 6x6x6 fashion!

Love the side and rear profile pics. Not feeling the nose of this car or the roof. Like others have mentioned, I believe that sad excuse for a glass roof will be gone in 2 years replaced by a more traditional sun roof. Sad how little that roof opens up. Interior, I am feeling it. I like the layout and the over all design that to me seems inviting.

Cheers or Jeers: 1974 Cadillac Eldorado Estate Wagon
G. David Felt replied to wildmanjoe's topic in Auctions and Classifieds
Sweet special 3 seat wagon that any Family could love! Reminds me of the days growing up in our 76 Olds Station wagon. I loved that 3rd seat facing the rear. -
I have seen people who do their own oil changes and other work on their car and do a messy job with letting oil drip onto areas that get very hot, etc end up with Engine fires, but 2 cruz out of the thousands sold does not make me feel this is a worthy investigation. Now if they had 10-12 then I would think something else is causing a problem. I do think that the wrangler needs to be looked at as 8 2010 Jeeps with engine fires is a starting to become a bit much.

WOW, The blinding light in my mirrors officer caused me to run over the poor pedestrian due to the reflective blinding nature of the over loaded Chrome on that dodge truck. Siiiiiiiiiggggggghhhhhhhhhh Why can American auto companies not understand how to be subtle in regards to making an auto, car or truck be impressive without being downright gaudy???
