Gotta say while I wish there was a hybrid now to put Lexus in it's place, this will do as it is really nice. Nice capure Chris.

I expect Toyota as well as everyone else to see a slow down by people willing to buy plug in type cars. Hybrids will fill the nich need till technology gets farther ahead to make it a mass market reality or something even better comes along. Personally, we all should have CNG Home Fueling stations and just go CNG for now. This would put a pinch in the Arab pockets.

SOB Politicians, does not matter what party they are from, they all want to use the programs as punching bags to get their butts back into office where they do nothing. Very sad and pathetic lack of duty to America by the folks that should represent us and cover core repsonsibilities. This does not include giving everything to everyone.

BEEEEEEER

No Problem, Check out www.stevenspass.com Very easy to get to all the runs on the front side and just take Tye Mill or Southern cross into the back side for 600 acres of raw powder, average run s 1.5 miles long. There is two chairs to get back up to the top and then drop into the more heavy used front runs to get back to the resort for food, etc. Enjoy, we love having people come up and pound the mountain. I will upload later some pics I have of the runs from up on the mountain.

Volkswagen wants to be the worlds biggest auto company and is willing to say and do just about anything to get there and yet I doubt they have ever really stopped and asked does this tie up make sense? I can see where Suzuki would see this as a chance to gain access to auto technology to pull their ugly boring cars forward at lower investment costs and yet I doubt that will ever happen. Mazda, Suzuki are among some of the auto companies that might get a life line for short term, but in the long term, I just do not see them surviving. We have production capacity glut around the world still and in reality not all these product variety is really needed. Good luck Suzuki, but I think your years are counted before you are a book mark in a digital history book.

I would rather have had the money they invested in this in a little better material on the door panel. The dash has a nice feel to it. The door panels look nice but they are a little hard in the plastic department. Over all the interior is a very comfortable enviroment. The rear sonic back up is ok. It may save my wife. The Video camera is more of a novalty to me. I just feel more comfortable with the mirrors. I just thank God GM has not gotten into to this auto park crap. If you can park a car you should not be behind the wheel. Hey Hyperv6, I totally agree. The amount of people who say they cannot parrallel park makes me think they should not be driving. If they cannot take the time to learn to be responsible on basic parking or lane changes, backup camera's etc. These people need to have their license revoked. Driving is a privilage you earn by showing you can be responsible. The adults who do not look and back over their kids, change lanes and hit other cars, freak out about having to learn to parrallel park are the ones we want off the road anyway. It is sad that others have gotten hurt, but if you cannot be responsible enough to be alert to your job of driving, then you need to give it up.

So Seattle is getting pounded with rain but our mountains are getting dumped on with Freshies. If your a powder dog, you will enjoy todays video. Rock On PowderBunga!!!

HyperV6, I agree that the Ninny warnings are a pain in the butt and most people if they cannot adjust them to be less intrusive, they will end up turning them off. I hate all this crap about we have to protect you from you.

WOW, this engine with a 9 speed should be very exciting or gas milage.

Interesting, while Buick might be huge in China, I think Pontiac would have been the EXCITEMENT brand that they could have focused on the College to early 30's crowd and still also could have had a stepping stone mid luxury product to go from Chevy to Cadillac via Pontiac. Will be interesting to see how GM handles this, they could have also killed Buick and just gone with Chevy, GMC and Cadillac and had performance with mid level luxury under the GMC label.

Need Avatar, so could use something new.

Congrats Roger, Way to go man.

Sweet update on the Ute, this bad boy is a Star for GM/GMC

I wonder if this is an East Coast AirBrake Job due to all the Rock Salt they put on the roads?

All I said was - That would be pretty cool, especially if the Ute and Wagon were offered too - I didn't say GM would be out of their mind if they didn't offer the wagon or ute, nor did I say GM sucks for not bringing over the wagon and ute too. I was having a moment of hope, especially for the ute (though I would dump the Envoy for a wagon in a heartbeat! ). I know and don't expect the wagon or ute to arrive on our shores any time in the near future How about if they do start selling the caprice, then pick up an Older station wagon you like the body of, cut off the body from behind the driver door back and graft it onto a modern suspension / drive train and nose and end up with your own custom one off modern wagon.

Bummer for those that lost money on what never was meant to happen. The truck while was cool on spec, was not at all appealing to the eye.

We'll I will say you guys are doing an awesome job as the site just continues to get better and better.

QUESTION, Raises Hand! So yes I am a computer engineer and no I have not posted pictures to this site or any other site before. So I would like to post my own collections of auto's. Does the garage here host the actual pics, or do we have to use some other picture hosting storage site and link to it? Do we have a 411 guide on the best practice to post your pictures to the garage? Thank you in advanced to who ever answers me.

SWEET, Nice and Speedy this morning

Boy, do you have that all wrong! The G8 actually sold quite well and it was the V6 cars that sat on lots. SMK getting facts and details wrong? Maybe it is part of the whole Aussie thing since it is a world away from us. Remember they are down under and upside down from the US.
