  1. Well you're half right, the Solstice is.
  2. I don't deal in the spiritual, I deal in fact.
  3. Neither is the G8, it's a Holden.
  4. The SUV will only live as long as there is 2 dollar a gallon gasoline.
  5. Does that mean we should not discuss Level Playing Fields, CAFE, CO2 Regs, etc, since they are all political issues too blu? Where do you draw the line?
  6. We don't need no stinking heater!
  7. Skunk Cabbage
  8. They did that in the 91 model year, when they added the drivers only airbag, and decided to give all L cars the Pontiac Tempest tail lights.
  9. That would work well in an alpha based Camaro.
  10. I look at it as a leveling of the playing field.
  11. Now I see why some cars need a V12, just to haul this sweet woman around! Thanx for the pics DF!
  12. All politicians are elitist or they would not be in office.
  13. Hatches are great for tailgate parties! :AH-HA_wink:
  14. I like chrome rims, not the fake chrome though. It's one of the reasons I don't care for Holden cars, the wheels look bland without bright shinny chrome IMHO!
  15. Well in the cars defense, I remember when GM made a model change to the Chevy Corsica that consisted of simply changing the names on the decklid (trunk) from Chevy Corsica to Corsica Chevy.
  16. Not liking the beard so far, I think I will go back to my profile pic look. Time to buy some shaving cream.
  17. Craig Trudell Automotive News August 22, 2008 - 4:38 pm ET Chrysler LLC has launched production of the hybrid versions of its Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUVs, set to go on sale this fall. Chrysler's Newark, Del., assembly plant started building the SUVs this week. The plant is Chrysler's first to build vehicles with its gasoline-electric Two Mode hybrid system. The hybrid system called for new assembly processes to install a 300-volt battery and other components that Chrysler is using for the first time. "The implementation of this new manufacturing process was done intelligently, with both quality and cost in mind," Joe Ozdowy, Newark's plant manager, said in a statement. The Two Mode hybrid drivetrain features a 385-hp, 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 equipped with a cylinder cutoff system. The engine is combined with a four-speed automatic transmission that has two internal electric motors. The Two Mode was developed by a partnership involving General Motors, Daimler AG and BMW AG. The Two Mode powertrain propels the vehicle on electric power at speeds up to about 25 mph. It also can provide an extra boost of passing power on the highway when needed. Chrysler has estimated that the hybrid system improves overall fuel economy 25 percent, to about 20 mpg city. The Durango hybrid is priced at $45,340 and the Aspen at $45,570; both prices include shipping. Chrysler says buyers are expected to get a $1,800 tax credit. Chrysler's Durango and Aspen hybrids enter an SUV market that has been slammed by a consumer shift to smaller cars. Durango sales were down 84.5 percent in July, to 384 units. In the first seven months of the year, sales are down 51.3 percent to 15,293. The Aspen has fared better than the Durango, but it was a new model in 2007. Through July, sales are down 3.7 percent to 14,446 units. Link: http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/arti...p;rssfeed=RSS31
  18. Sorry, it's what I see when I'm in the US, all I see is women driving it. The car is not for me. Even when GM tried to make a GXP buff up version, all they did was give it a Buggs Bunny look. Not my cup of tea, but if you like it fine.
  19. In Germany I vote as political center-right, In the USA I vote left. I think Germany is to left, and the USA to right, so I try to balance both countries out.
  20. Don't know if these have been seen, my friend Jimmy sent me these of the Cruze @ Lordstown Assembly.
  21. I don't like the G6, but I don't rant about it, to me seems like a chick car, all I ever see driving it.
  22. Maybe Holden will offer more varied interior colors to match the Tutti Fruity exterior colors.
  23. Not really, I have a program that allows me to type in German, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, etc. It transform my keyboard into those keyboards. I do switch to the German keyboard the most though, because of where I am.
  24. I think you mean Español.
