    Totally understandable, more and more people have been turned off from diesel in cars. Trucks they are fine with but for cars, Hybrid / EV is the way to go. I suspect over the next 24 months we will see a proliferation of the Hybrid / EVs with performance equal to or beating diesel.

    H'mm this is going to be very interesting to read once it is released.

    Drew, I also forgot about Motus, An American Bike Builder that used to build Corvette Racers and they took the V8, cut it in half and now produce a Pushrod V4 1650CC Liquid cooled bad ass ride! They have a great comfort ride position. Motus MSTR Motus MST Motus Corvette based V4 Pushrod Engine

    Have to say in playing with the configurator, I am really liking the Magnum X-1 Stealth Edition bike also.

    Drew, that is a sweet bike. I used to ride till I got married and had kids. Wife gave me a choice of her or the bike. I retired the bike. Miss it, but am happy with all the other fun toys that have replaced it especially my waverunners. I have always liked the Yamaha bikes, I checked out and rode the following that is a blast: Empulse TT 10,400 watt hour EV Bike. I also like the Hammer S

    Nissan is going to want to address this ASAP. Otherwise their investment could just go up in smoke.

    That is good to know Drew as my sister is wanting to get one of these. This is what we are going to go look at tomorrow it looks like.

    I would just go with AWD, sucky to have this be FWD but I know it will sell still.

    This.. Absolutely This. The CTS-V and the Escalade possess a great deal of what would make a helluva sales romp happen over at Cadillac IF.. GM would just realize that the OHV V8 should be in everything they make in one form or another.. only exception maybe being the XT5.. and even that should get a TTV6 with minimum 400HP asap. This also reinforces why Cadillac needs to do a V edition of the Escalade. I would take a fully loaded ESV Platinum V edition now. Would love to have my escalade as is with that extra supercharged power! At this point.. just for profits and novelty. I could see a 550HP Escalade. 640HP in an Escalade would have GM on trial for MANSLAUGHTER weekly.. guaranteed. I see no problem with keeping the engine as is all 640 lovely ponies in the Escalade. Other high end SUVs have this kind of power and are not on trial, just saying.

    Finally have them on the lots here in Seattle. Going to check out a Purple one with the black with purple accent interior tonight.

    This was cut during editing as I couldn't find a spot to for this to fit in, but I think it describes my feelings on both vehicles. "To put it you this way: If I was going to do the Moab trail, I would pick the Wrangler because I know it will get me there and back. As for getting to Moab, that would be handled by the Grand Cherokee." That is a perfect ending IMHO! I would totally agree with you. Have the Grand Cherokee pulling a trailer with the Rubicon Wrangler on the back. Leave the Grand Cherokee at the trailhead with Trailer and go play for the weekend in the wrangler. Nice job Bill!

    Love the write up and the comparisons, ending wise, the Grand Jeep Cherokee is a great auto, but is too refined for those of us that like to play in the outdoors. Wrangler it is!

    OK, true, globally, but then I checked out what Volvo stated and was honestly surprised. Here is their actual numbers: https://www.volvoclub.org.uk/press/releases/2009/2008sales.shtml In 2007 they had a record year producing and selling a total of 458,323 total auto's produced globally. The S80 made up a global sale of 42,527 so then that would make this a multi-billion dollar sales auto. But I would have to think this is still slim in comparison to other product lines. They clearly are not as big as GM or Toyota.

    the blue is sharp, i really like the rain forest green too but if had the cash and nothing better to do with it id go for the midnight edition 2500 hd I think he was talking about the Colorado btw. how embarrassing, i keep forgetting the diesel colorado/canyons. duramax = 6.6 when i hear it! a local dealership had a trail boss z71 crew cab colorado but the 43k price tag is tough to swallow... Yupo, I was talking about the Colorado/Canyon twins since it was what started off the article above. They are lovely trucks as are the full size.

    OK, will try that first, appreciate the suggestion as I forgot about resetting everything to default. Cool, will update later tonight once I am home and can do that.
  19. G. David Felt
    OK, so maybe I am missing something, but if the S80 sedan only sold 12,347 in 2007 and the average transaction price was $75,000 that means gross sales was $926,025,000. I wonder how much it cost to develop the auto in the first place, support, testing, etc. Did they ever make money on the auto? Even break even? I question how a company as small as Volvo can make money on such low production figures. Any additional info on this from them?

    Thanks Drew, OK, then it is an issue with my chrome installed, will export my bookmarks and then uninstall, reinstall and see what happens as my work chrome is fine. Thanks,

    I think who ever gets multiple versions of EV CUVs out that are quality, 200+ to 300+ range will clean up. I am hoping that GM is starting that with the BOLT. BOLT 225 mile EV Subcompact JOLT 325 mile EV Compact JOULE 425 Mile EV Mid size VOLTAIC 525 Mile EV Full size I could see this as a full Chevy EV Family of CUVs.

    This is a Lovely Sexy auto! Compare to this 1958 Packard Hawk.
  23. G. David Felt
    I agree that 99.9% of people will not be able to tell the difference between the 15HP but I bet a butt load of folks could tell the difference between a V8 and V6. Yet the exhaust system does give it a very nice note! Yes the cost is there, but I like the pull of a v8 over a v6 everyday.
  24. G. David Felt
    OK, I know I am tired, I even looked in the help section but I cannot seem to find the options or style or theme to change and see if that is an issue now even though up to the time this started all worked fine for me. Where do I go to change my look n feel as I seem to be missing the link in the interface.

    Cadillac is far more popular than most people realize in Japan. I think this will actually do pretty well.
