  1. *Ahem* currently, I am JamesBond thank you.
  2. I remember I liked this car so much, I built a model of it. Somebody who lives around me has one of these too.
  3. I know people that have cross-shopped the Silverado and the Tacoma. Yeah, it may be a bit out of reach compared to this current comparison. But, I just don't see the Camaro being a competitor to the Hyundai kind of like how you don't see the Tacoma being a competitor to the Silverado. The Camaro is bigger and has bigger engines available and the V6 is not a track car like the Hyundai with the track package.
  4. I'm just making comparisons like Motor Trend did. They are bias, so I have a right to be as well. Just to even things out a bit, Hyundai has a better warranty and quicker 1/4 mile times, but the Chevrolet pollutes less.
  5. Also, the camaro is 2,000 less in this compro and gets better gas mileage.
  6. Well, both the Silverado and Tacoma are RWD can be v6 and are trucks. The Silverado is bigger, wider, and heavier too. Just like the Camaro, the Silverado can be had with a V8 and the Tacoma, just like the Hyundai, cannot.
  7. This comparison is like taking a Silverado V6 and putting it up against a Tacoma. Here is how the copy will read: First Place: Toyota Tacoma The Tacoma handles small loads better than the Silverado. It can tow the 2 seadoos just as well to the lake, has better gas mileage and is just scrumptious while driving. Second Place: Chevy Silverado The Silverado is big and bulky and the smaller loads slide around in it's huge bed. Weighing hundreds of pounds more than the Tacoma, it still pulls the seadoos but mileage suffers greatly. Handling is burdensome and the plastics are hard.
  8. Well, the Camaro has a bigger engine optional. The Hyundai was designed specifically for the V6. I really don't think you can expect the Camaro to be a performance benchmark with a V6. Also, Camaro is pre-production, almost like Motor Trend wanted to test the pre-production.
  9. Is anybody really surprised that Motor Trend which is now a sham and a farce and joke decided to twist the knife a little?
  10. Ok, so new developments on my tower that started this whole thread. I have a dell with a 3.4Ghz P4 and 1gb DDR2 SDRAM and 128 ATI Card. I think one of my ram sticks died as it only is registering 512 now. Where can I pick up some more ram. Also, is my processor good enough to where I should get a GPU card too?
  11. Good thing you have the off-road package on your car.
  12. As you can see by my post count, even though I have been here since the start of the latest incarnation of the site, I do do a lot of snooping as usual.
  13. That transmission was not good for towing. 1st was useless, but you still couldn't start in 2nd. The manual ran at like 2300 at highway speeds and I had to have a 200 gallon external tank because my fuel mileage was so bad. Also, we were running at 26,000 gcvwr. Dodge only tells consumers with the manual at that time to do 21,000. But, we asked and they said it was fine. Something about licensing or gov. regs. I didn't mind the noise from the truck. I could always turn up the music. Edit: Also, the trans started to leak at the end, but Dodge corporate told us to drive it till it broke cause it would take a week over our contract time to fix the thing. Who knows if they ever fixed it.
  14. Dear 2006, I really enjoyed the Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins Diesel that the Chrysler Corporation let me borrow for a few months. It pulled around a big jeep and a bubble and I went all over America in it. I liked my butt being tosty in the heated seats, and the nav that got us lost (sometimes asking me to make U-turns with a huge trailer) and the Sirius Radio with Howard and Bubba. I wish it was still 2006 sometimes.
  15. I almost want to come too. I still think there is fun and good times to be had here, but people need to understand that whats happening now, WE have no real control over. We just need to keep doing what we are doing and have a positive outlook on the future.
  16. whats that new jag that "greets you" when you start it up? The jag dealer lives near me and is driving it.
  17. It's like people that order the whole menu at a fast food place and then pay with a 100.
  18. I always thought that Hyundai or Kia would be interested in Dodge trucks.
  19. I think the 26,000 GM is laying off is more than the non-US companies have employed here. Like it was said, Toyota boasts how it has 8 plants in America. GM has(d) 8 in Ohio. (At the time I saw the billboard, things could have changed in 2 years.)
  20. Red and blue strobe halo lights would be BALLIN! I could just see the fear in the truckers eyes if the CHP picked up some of these.
  21. Buying any used car is a gamble. A lot of the "Certified Used Vehicles" I bet come from rental agencies, because at least they have some records of how they serviced their vehicles.
  22. I hear in Vegas and Arizona there are whole tracts of homes that are just sitting vacant because there is no market and since the air is dry and such, they are just sitting on them.
  23. Thanks for the telegram holmes!
  24. God save the Chrysler!
