My grandfather's Model A, disassembled Camino style. I'm not sure of the year, and I only vaguely remember it. I know it basically looks like this one, but with a red body.

The Aurora was originally slated to be a Cadillac. But his argument will somehow involve DOHC.

Maybe Bluehost is using distributed computing and was storing part of C&G on Blu's computer..... that would explain a great many things.

in the extra salvation army dress.....

no problems with the car I figure if I need to buy something, I want to buy an economical engine.... 4-cylinder is the way to go. It'll never go over 50 anyway.

You mean like outsource the marketing department to Apple. ---------- Dude 1: Hello, I'm A Malibu.. Dude 2: And I'm a Camry. Dude 1: Camry, what are you eating over there? Dude 2: Mayo on white.... why? Dude 1: I dunno, just looks a bit.... bland. Why don't you put some cheese or lettuce or tom... Dude 2 interupting: Woah woah woah!.... Don't go getting all wild on me....mayo on white will be just fine....I've eaten it for years <smugly> Dude 1: I just thought you might like something with a bit more flavor, maybe some variety. Dude 2: Ah, that's tomorrow's lunch. Mayo on wheat! Zoom out, show logo, closeup of Dude 2 taking a big bite of Mayo on white and saying "Mmmmm hmmmmm"

I bet there is a whole host of buyers that don't care about Onstar, XM, or 6-Speed automatics as long as it starts every day and gets them down the highway at better than 30mpg.

I'm looking for a possible replacement for the Roadmaster. If you recall, it isn't actually mine. I go on ebay and place check marks for "Wagon" "Manual transmission" "4cylinder" "5cylinder" (gotta remember the volvos.... The most interesting entries are: Ford Escort L Wagon Diesel Ford Pinto Wagon complete with porthole window in back 1971 Datsun 510 Wagon Dodge Omni GLSH Clone with a Shelby engine from a Daytona Oh sure there's a bunch of Subarus, Saabs, and Volvos.... but I need to drive a car that really makes a statement... you know... like a quad color 1996 Roadmaster Wagon does....

With a BAS, 6-speed and $5.00 a gallon gas, people may learn to like it.

'88-'91 Chrysler New Yorker with 3 MASSIVE Escalade portals on each side... applied crookedly.

a Prius probably couldn't make it up your driveway....

Why can't I kwit ewe!?!

you don't know how many arguments I've gotten into on other boards with people saying that the 4 door Tundra is a true competitor for the Avalanche. They're better off claiming it isn't. You simply cannot beat the Avalanche for overall utility.

Or... to phrase it another way... Cobalt proves there is a market for a cheap basic car at $12,000. Which is why it'll hang around for a few years after the Cruze is introed.

6 billion in revenues now how much did it cost them to make it? build the plant? make fake ads? recall it?

they're on track to sell less than 150,000 this year.

uh... being worked on in the way of removing the links to the posts that didn't make it. some posts from yesterday afternoon were lost.

I'm trying to help mom find a nice used Avalanche to replace the Aurora.

I still don't get it. I've talked to people who are shopping for a new vehicle anyway and they want to get a new CUV like a CRV "to save money on gas". They are coming from a 3800 powered Regal that is in perfectly fine shape. I just want to scream.

Gold standard has nothing to do with it. It's the incoherent fiscal policy of the last two generations that have done it to us.

Who said the 1.4 would be for everyone? The 1.4 would probably propel the Cruze, the HHR replacement, and anything below that. We're not going to see it in a Malibu or Impala.

If you click "View new posts" and nothing comes up, just use the drop down and select "this week". We're looking into some site upgrades in the near future, but after the past few days, lets get steady on our feet first.

Volvo XC70 competitor

I told you months ago. He's in the trunk of a Daewoo Leganza with over 100k miles sitting at the back of the used car section of an undisclosed Mitsubishi dealer. You'll never find him.

Oh geeze... not you too?? We could have stuck with the gold standard and watched as Europe and Asia wooshed passed us in the global economy.
