An early-90s Chrysler not functioning? No way!

Brookville? More like Brokeville.

I would like to point out someone who lives around Deftones has two near identical Chrysler New Yorkers. WTF?

As usual, they do to an extent. Not your fault, and why I hate Edmunds. This 'anti-theft alarm with remote' is something the Avalanche has as part of its keyless entry system. 4WD vs AWD is an advantage in Avalanche's column due to its versatility. Avalanche also has standard Stabilitrak across the line. I don't know how much value you would put on the midgate. So, declaring that the Ridgeline 'blows away' the Avalanche in features really depends on what you value more. If you're that inclined towards the luxury goodies, maybe you should be considering either vehicle. I also assume you selected the 1LT. Stepping up to the 2LT would add a great many of these features as well as exclusives like remote start. Its another $1500 but factor in the likelihood of an equal (if not greater) incentive/rebate on the Avalanche as time goes by, and its generally a wash. Even for 2006 models which lack some of the equipment, there's up to $6000 cash back. What you're really talking about are two similar but very different vehicles. Buying an Avalanche gives you many luxury features, a slight compromise in ride quality, and a large gain in utility (towing, hauling, etc). Choosing a Ridgeline gives you a few more toys, better urban handling, the Honda name, but compromises much of the strong utility characteristics of the Avalanche. When it comes down to it, either will handle your day-to-day hauling needs just fine, but the Avalanche is overbuilt in comparison. You may not need that much capability 9/10 times, but on that 10th time, you may wish you had it. Pay a slight bit more now and never regret it when the time comes. That's the rationale behind an Avalanche.

Yes. Yes. The new one likely will be at least on par. Irrelevant Yes. EPA figures bear that out. Yes. Though neither are sports cars. More torque = yes New one probably will Yes. Yes. GM trucks are reknowned for their ride quality and smoothness compared to other fullsizers.

Damn. I think I just got WPBHarry a date... Just so you know, this conversation was 100% real. I'm dead f-in serious. This chick is hard up or something.

Deadline is a short 9 and a half hours away! Anyone need more time?

Welcome to Choppin' Competition #25! The future of the HUMMER lineup is up to much speculation right now with the softening market for fullsize trucks and sport utilities combined with the division's very limited scope. However, here is your chance to light some fire under the offroad truck maker. Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to design the next HUMMER product. This can really be anything, from a Wrangler-sized H4 to a the next generation H2 to a completely new vehicle. Use your imagination and give HUMMER some good product to help it continue to thrive in the marketplace! Size guidelines remain at 800x600, so please size your entry accordingly. Other than that, go nuts. Some suggestions for base photos include the new SUVs and pickup trucks, but whatever you use is up to you. No restrictions. The winner will recieve a HUMMER-related prize from C&G! Deadline is Friday, August 11th @ 11:59PM your local time.

Drink some Frusion.

I would leave my hot Spanish girlfriend for you, O.C. :rotflmao:

Regarding the features, things like power tilt-telescope steering wheels and articulating headrests already exist on other cars within the GM lineup. My Olds was designed in 1994 and has three-position articulating headrests.

Hey, did you ever get my PM about how to uploade pictures?

That's a different subject. My point is powertrain differentiation can do wonders for cars that look similar.

You know, just because I say 'arguably' doesn't mean you have to. :AH-HA_wink:

I have a feeling that if I met up with Reg, it would involve strippers.

Surgically implant a testicle, then rip it off forcibly with a steak knife and one of those extend-o-reach things on TV.

Croc is a fratass.

I had to add the last two

We're working on it. This is the culprit's info... IP - 65.78.77.53 C&G Registration e-mail - [email protected] Feel free to unleash unmitigated anger against that person.

This guy looks pretty "interesting," too... Just kidding. I really wanted to use that pic.

Bill Heard dealerships sucks. There's one east of Tampa.
