  1. Get an Avalanche then? This idea has been around since at least 2002. The ones in the Avalanche are lit and have a small drainage hole at the bottom. Fill the sides with a bag of ice and a case of beer.... I got your cooled cup holder right here. And I used the Avalanche as a real truck too. It would haul construction materials and tools, and I'd even load pallets of brick into it with a fork truck. I'm certain I took it over it's payload rating, but it took it no problem.
  2. I loved the ones on my 2003 Avalanche. I always called them the "saddlebags"
  3. Remind me what's going to be built at Oshawa again? Impala and Camaro simply cannot support the volume that these two factories are capable of putting out.
  4. Two epsilons dead, a Kappa dead, a Delta dead, two Thetas dead, a Lambda dead.
  5. It doesn't work when Benz does it. It doesn't work when Lincoln does it. But wow... a front bench seat!
  6. !! Getting into the back of the final generation Riv wasn't fun even when I was young and limber!
  7. What I'd really want is an Ecoboosted 2.8 litre V6 with around 280hp but gets 26mpg.
  8. I got 18 highway out of my '03 Avalanche without AFM.
  9. With an electric powertrain, you don't care about horsepower; torque is what matters.* *Same could be said about ICE, but I gave up that fight long ago.
  10. Let's see...... - trapezoid smiling anime grill - headlights pulled back along the fender like they got an eye lift - Bangle butt - unusable interior
  11. need to see more pics.... I'm not sold yet.
  12. Damn! That is a big fat ass! but I still like it.
  13. What is so difficult about slapping an already developed LHD interior into an already developed RHD car/truck, slapping on a Pontiac nose and putting it on a boat with the sedans you just did the same thing to?
  14. They're all over Western PA. But then again, I think every single Envoy XUV was sold in the Pittsburgh region.... because I see more than my fair share of those.
  15. My bad on the DI thing. The website I looked at had the LS listed as SEFI.
  16. Doesn't matter when you're still wrong about the torque steer. GM could still do a FWD Super
  17. he can look at me like that...
  18. by "all that 2 years ago" you mean just the 8-speed right? Lexus doesn't have a direct injection V8 and they don't have a 2-mode hybrid.
  19. I think that is more due to the fact that Buick hasn't had anything to really offer the ES buyer since....welll ever. If the new Malibu can run with the Camry easily, then the new Lacrosse should run with the ES just as well having similar upgrades.
  20. Due to current economic conditions, a 2015 Ford Falcon UTE
  21. It's great that you can see the worst in anything good written about GM. The article didn't say any of that. Most articles rate the Malibu as the best looking of the bunch and consider the Malibu a pleasure to drive. You're just grasping as straws to say anything negative about GM. Stop trolling or be banned.
  22. You first with the thinking. Monte Carlo, Ion, and Grand Prix are out of production. Impala, during the past year, did much better than expected with retail sales, much of the decline was in fleet sales. Lucerne and DTS aren't even close to the same class as the Malibu, no one walked out of a Cadillac dealer after seriously considering a DTS and went to buy a Malibu. Only the G6 and maybe the Lacrosse fit your argument, but both are at the end of their lives anyway. And if Pontiac or Buick are going to lose a sale, I'd much rather them lose the sale to Chevy than to Nissan, Honda, or Toyota. That's what having multiple brands is all about isn't it?
  23. That's pretty strong praise for a FWD car coming from 68.
