Ram News: Rumorpile: Ram ProMaster City Lineup Could Expand
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Ram
I don't see how it looks feminine... The jelly bean front end has always been associated with more feminine style. Both my wife and Daughter said it looked like a truck a woman would build and drive not Manly like the Terrain. Blocky looks tend to be more buch or manly looking compared to curvy more feminine look. The last generation Yukon was more feminine looking than the current new one.- 12 replies

I think this could explain GM's lack of advertising as they know they need to fix this issue before they can move on. Hopefully the Baby Duramax in the trucks does not have this same issue.

Interesting, surprised it looks so feminine and not a work truck. Yet if it gets the job done guess ugly and feminine can work.- 12 replies

Unusual memento from decades-old auto accident
G. David Felt replied to balthazar's topic in Industry News
That is really weird, you would have thought the doctors would have xrayed and checked rather than just let it go. -
Actually that is from the Jackie Chan Movie Who Am I! Great movie and the driving is awesome. I have the movie on Blue ray with the extra's and he took 2 weeks of drifting lessons to be able to do the stunt in the movie himself. He did put some dents in the cars but was able to do it.

Duke Engines – Time for a NEW FORMAT?
G. David Felt replied to G. David Felt's topic in Alternative Fuels & Propulsion
Very cool, great input Dwight, glad to have you comment on this. -
WELCOME! Glad to have another Enthusiast join. Cool about the cars you like, My only Japanese auto I love to death is the R34 and R35 Nissan Skyline. Those were wicked cars when I went to college at Kobe University. What is your favorite car? Look forward to your posting.

I wonder since BMW is using carbon fiber carriage with their electric cars if carbon fiber wheel rims would make sense here. -

That will be interesting to see, wonder if the drop down sides of the pickup are as flimsy as what I have seen on models in Europe and Asia.- 12 replies

Yes I would agree that for Tesla Roadster, the original .36 was pretty crappy. So be interesting to see what the new roadster looks like. Course that Trans Am was also fully enclosed compared to the open air Roadster from Tesla which is what this .36 is for. So I guess a .31 for the new Roadster 3.0 removable roof version is pretty good then. Most of the pics I see on Google show a lid/roof panel, assumedly the released number is with that in place. Guess the 'formal' rear glass is killing the flow, tho the windshield looks rather upright, also. Just surprised to hear it's where it is. Makes one wonder if that upright windshield will change with the retro kits for the Roadster 1.0 and 2.0 versions when they release the upgrade kits and start producing 3.0 version cars.

Solid Point made Drew, Elon does have a habit of slipping dates. Hopefully GM will do a mid year refresh of battery pack when they do have newer better batteries ready that push the length of driving.

Detroit Auto Show: 2016 Cadillac CTS-V 640HP, 200MPH: Comments
G. David Felt replied to Cmicasa the Great's topic in Cadillac
Just don't see a need for it.. Then again.. if I'm going out in any weather where I may need a lot of traction I'm driving my Yukon.. or at the very least the Impala. Thing is I am so anal about my "upper" cars being clean that I wouldn't even drive it in the rain. I can respect you not wanting to get your upper cars dirty, but then it is designed to be driven and have fun. That is why I drive my Trailblazer AWD SS everywhere even in snow, it is a blast to drive. Some day I will have to repaint it and clean it up and replace parts but till then, drive it like I am going to hell and trying to escape. -
Chevrolet News:Next Chevrolet Malibu To Become Competitive
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Chevrolet
I could agree with the LED Lights as visual is a big piece to the marketing, but I would have to say BS on the 2.4L DOHC inline Four. 99.999% of people could care less about what is under the hood. As long as it is quiet and reliable with minimal maintenance needed you could have what Dwight has stated with a 3.1L 2Valve single overhead cam engine as long as it is powerful enough with great gas mileage and 100,000 mile tune ups and 7500 mile oil changes at least.- 61 replies

Industry News: How Do We Fix the Nation's Recall System?
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
Drew, that would work if all the states would standardize on one database and set of software so that all driver licenses and auto registrations could be meshed into one large database for the NHTSA. Course some folks will yell big brother and scream and yet the IRS already has all their info so why does it matter about drivers licenses or auto registrations.- 6 replies

So I guess a .31 for the new Roadster 3.0 removable roof version is pretty good then. I agree that under the hood is important but then GM needs to be setting the standards rather than just following or doing mid level. I would think using the existing battery design and updating the cell design to maximize the Lithium battery packs for range would be a huge win for them in the eyes of the public.

That is what I do not get, with all the advancements in battery technology, you would think they would want to step up to trump Tesla as well as get this powertrain into a AWD CUV or at least a FWD CUV. I could see the VOLT having a 120-160 mile range battery pack come in the following format's 4 door sedan 5 door hatchback 4 door CUV with lift gate style 4 door CUV with Tilt glass and mini stage coach doors Powertrains being FWD or AWD with choice of gas, Diesel or CNG generator.
