Montreal Autoshow: Camaro SS
I've never been a Camaro lover, but I like this car. I could see myself driving one.

Spark plugs are the one component in a gasoline engine that a diesel will never ever have.

I saw the coolest thing ever
Probably trying to out brag each other on which one can really take down a US Airways flight.

The point of the MetWrench set is that it fits both imperial and metric in the same socket. I've used the very set I linked you to when I rebuilt the front end on that '96 Roadmaster Estate. You'd need half as many sockets.

How many diesels do you know that have spark plugs?

Oh autostore parts guy
The best one for me was when I wanted spark plugs for my '85 Continental and the dude behind the counter says "V8 or Diesel?" I just bluescreened at that point.

I would have been far happier with McCain as President these past 8 years ... especially during 9-11.

Most people, including myself, saw McCain as just a continuation of Bush's policies especially regarding Iraq. "We'll stay for 100 years if we have to!", McCain exclaimed. The tax cuts for the rich really sold me as being anti-McCain. I did not just vote anti-McCain though. I like the President's proposals. I want him to succeed with them.

Do you think he is going to throw out all of his proposals and just do something completely different? Is he just going to go out back and shoot hoops for 4 years? The President, prior to his election, has shown what he wants to do. We elected him based on that.

Are you serious? The Whitehouse website has already been updated with his agenda and gives a lot of details. It is well thought out, comprehensive, and inclusive. We can see the direction he wants to take us in. Even if he can only accomplish part of this list it is still a major step forward for this country. Just looking at how efficiently he has put together the new cabinet and executed the transition. The unknown black man with the funny name out maneuvered the biggest names in today's political game. He raised more money and had more people involved than any candidate ever. I'm not worried about his ability to get things done.

No, I wouldn't have been that upset because I would just be happy that Bush was gone. I would have been hopeful that McCain would return to being the man he was in 2000 and the campaign he ran was just pandering to get elected.

REPORT: GM getting Saab ready to stand alone

it's all ass cracks?- Detroit 2009: Chrysler 200C Concept
Drew Dowdell replied to Intrepidation's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)I wish they had followed through on that Imperial and priced it up where it should have been priced.- Interview with Lutz: Volt, Converj
DeutcheBank thinks bankruptcy is still on the table.- GM snuffs Holden's global RWD dream
I'm not even concerned about CAFE. How many Zeta Park Aves would they sell at 45k anyway? Park Ave sales have been down in China. Take that capacity to the US. Even if GM only sold 1,000 of them a month, that's 12,000 more sales per year with no additional development costs!- GM snuffs Holden's global RWD dream
Can someone tell me why the Zeta can't be sold in the U.S. and what further costs besides shipping it would bring? The thing is developed... it's on the road in other countries... why can't it be sold here? They have a fully developed, RWD Park Ave that uses off the shelf N.A. drivetrain. Why can't it be sold here? They have a fully developed, G8 ST. Why can't it be sold here? They have a fully developed RWD Chevy Caprice. Why can't it be sold here? They have a line to build Zetas in Canada. Tool up the suppliers and crank 'em out!- 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP on eBay...
Not cheap.... because they'd go out and spend the same or more for a V6 Accord. Because it's a Pontiac, they want the rebates.- 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP on eBay...
A big problem though is GM's lack of control over it's dealers. The dealer markup on this car is bad. If GM could just set the price appropriately and keep the dealers from the ADM, there wouldn't be this rebate issue.- 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP on eBay...
and the GXP has more HP and torque too....- Cadillac introduces the new presidential limo
You can't prove a negative, thus your logic is flawed. Prove that Saddam didn't have WMDs at the time of the invasion. You can't do it. You could only prove that he did. - American Family Association ends McDonalds boycott
