Somebody forgot that style is a requirement, this is lacking in that and much more. Ford Transit wins over this.

I agree with Moltar, there are so few if any of the outlook there to be seen that this is NOT a rebadge issue. So I think GMC will have a winner on their hands.

For a beginner driver, not a bad ride to purchase, but otherwise, I would pass. Clearly based on the photo, it is an elderly driver that is past driving.

My friend has last years M3 fully loaded and it is nice and has amazing power, but comfort between the M3 and the CTS-V, I take the V plus there is more room inside for a big guy like me. Plus I like supporting amarica auto companies.

Super Size

Why do I get this feeling that the GOP is doing ths to continue to help reward the few rich enough to have an interest in pure gas only. Sadly, this will continue to drive this country to depend on oil from outside when we could easily lead by example and move to 100% BioFuels. We have one of the most productive farming sectors in the world that could easily grow what is needed to create 100% BioFuel. We need to take what has been proven to work in Brazil and expand it fast here.

Does Infiniti really need a more expensive super car? Cadillac XLR did not survive, Lexus I do not see surviving past a couple years. Reality is that there is only so much money being spent on crazy hi end sport cars. I would think the money could be better spent on their existing auto's giving them more interior room to fit everyone instead of just the 5'8" tall crowd.

That's how it's been since 1997....GM, like Ford, Toyota, Hyundai, etc is primarily a FWD appliance maker...any RWD models are just occasional low volume desserts... +1

I preferre the OEM Manual.

I wonder how the 1.4l turbo compares to the 2.0 L diesel for horsepower and torque.

Avery amazing vehicle that truly did not live up to the expectations of the rich and famous. Too many options out there with rich people more than happy with cars that cost much less. Style was very blaw and did not have the distinct grab of a royles royce or Bentley.

It seems that Roger might be right. GM dusted off the Outlook and made it into a new Acadia. Here's the rear-quarter view of the Outlook: Here's the rear-quarter view of the Acadia, pre-2013: Here's the rear-quarter view of the 2013 Acadia: Aside from the obvious wrap-around rear glass, the rear quarter panels, liftgate, and shape of the taillights are all pretty much the same as what you got on the Saturn. WOW, thanks for the comparison pictures, it does have the saturn, but with better tail lights and a much better nose. Still Love the new Acadia even if it is a dust off of old parts.

Tater Tots

I loved this commercial, it was freakin funny.

Sounds like a nice wagon that many families would enjoy especially with the Diesel engine and high mileage.

Freedom

Thanks for posting, the Lambo is drop dead beautiful in my eyes.

Saw an old DeSoto today on Highway 99 near edmonds. Sure do not see to many like that anymore. Needed some TLC, but over all still in pretty good shape for as old as it is.

No Need to worry about the big earthquake, if it happens nothing anyone can do about it. Visas should not be a big issue as Boeing and most of the Hi-Tech companies here handle H1 Visa's, very easy to do, Just apply to the companies your interested and let them know you are willing to relocate. I have a bunch of friends from India and all over Europe who got interviews and then relocated here. Course I do know of many recruiters but one especially that specializes in handling the H1 Visas. If your interested in contacting him, let me know and email me at [email protected]. We are one big happy melting pot.

Right now Amazon is throwing money after people with solid skill sets, they have greatly expanded their offices on the water front here in Seattle, on Lake Union and on Lake Washington plus in Bellevue and Redmond. Cannot go wrong with any of the campuses, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, EMC/Isilon, and a ton of other tech companies and cloud based companies here. Come on up and join us.

If you have no passion for individual auto's then why be on this board as a moderator or writer? Clearly you would do well with the tree huggers in Portland and the Seirra club. My so called Monster Truck can do far more than anything green or an apple I-Thing. Try going off road, getting over broken roads with no damage, rescuing people in idiot Nissan Leafs or Prius who go up on the pass and get messed up and complain as to why they should have to deal with snow. I could bitch and go on and on, but I will agree to disagree with you as most of your comments seem to be anti Auto's. Clearly you have no concept of satire. My apologies if I did not take this right, but then I never could read something and see it as Satire. Seems a weird concept for me to understand.

That reminds me...I haven't taken a 'destination unknown' random drive in a long time...I always seem to be busy w/ life and have a specific destination in mind--the office, a restaurant, Starbucks, Target, etc. Haven't driven just for fun in ages.. Driving for just for its own sake is an alien concept to me. I can barely afford the gas it takes for my school commute. I drive with hypermiling techniques as much as is practically possible. If I were to go on a drive just for fun, I wouldn't have any fun because I'd be lamenting all the money I'd be wasting to get basically nowhere. Time is the limiting factor for me these days. And within 50 miles of me it's all pretty ugly desert.. though there are some interesting backroads up north. When I lived in Colorado I used to do 200-400 mile weekend day trips to search for twisty back roads for fun when I had my M3 and my Mustang GT. Seattle has many fun roads to drive and scenery to enjoy. The North Cascade Highway loop is an awesome 440 mile drive I think everyone should do once in their life. I always do it every spring after the road opens from the winter and usually will drive it 3 or 4 times during the spring summer as there are tons of places to see and things to do for an enjoyable weekend. http://www.cascadeloop.com/ Enjoy the site as it is a blast to drive in a auto designed for driving.

Interesting, I do find there are fellow engineers I work with that love their apple computers and can actually use them to do things, yet most people seem to not be able to do much. I on the other hand will stick with my Linux/unix/windows systems. I do agree I love my andriod phone from Samsung. It is a blast of usefullness. I too will pass on the Prius, not a car that can ever fit me.

But that unfairly penalizes people who rely most on transit: students and low-income earners. Taxes should be levied on drivers. If you choose the luxury to use a car, you pay to subsidize the people who choose not to. Here you clearly hit the nail on the head, These people choose NOT to drive, so they SHOULD pay for their share of riding mass transit. It is NOT my place or any other tax payer who chooses to drive their own private auto due to working hard and saving for it to have to provide transit for others. It is a luxury you earn!

#1 due to being the Cheap Redneck truck of those that seem to not want to demand a nice better truck. They are the Plastics of the Plastic industry. So you prefer the GM interior that gets ragged on over the ford or dodge that most critics put on top? (serious question.) i haven't had first hand experience with all of them so i don't know Nothing wrong w/ GM and Ram interiors...I had a '10 F150 as a rental a couple years ago, the dash was just a bunch of ugly plastic rectangles within rectangles. Cheap, nasty plastics... This I totally agree with GM and Dodge have way better interiors than Ford, the last 30 years and Ford still makes a cheap interior. Even with all the rage on how great the new Mustanges are and yet you sit in one and it has a look and feel of cheapness, you can clearly identify the parts bin parts and worse yet is the bad rust I find on so many engine and driveline components. I have yet to see Ford Quality Job 1 ever on Ford products.
