  1. awww I miss trenton porkroll. any of you traveling from the NJ area to or through the Pittsburgh area your mission is to bring me a log of porkroll. I'll gladly pay you for the trouble.
  2. eh, I'm only interested in more power if it lets me do what I do now while using less fuel. I can already get myself into a heap of trouble with the CTS and it's only at 255hp. I'd rather have the DI focus on getting me 34+ mpg and keeping the HP the same rather than getting 300hp at the same mpg.
  3. that HAD to have been written by 68!!!!! :lol:
  4. saw my first Liberty CRD the other day
  5. or... save yourself the $5k-$7k and get a CXL V8 with only 2,000 miles.
  6. I don't think the TSX or S40 will be soft enough. He's coming from an A-body Century, putting him into a TSX will be shock to his system.
  7. Where do you get those?
  8. If we don't end up in a recession in the next 12-18 months it'll be through a miracle of some sort. My bets are that the housing implosion is going to become a huge Presidential campaign issue. Energy prices are going to hit us hard too. I work in both the Real Estate industry and Energy Industry and there are some extremely major shakeups going on that will effect the economy. That little bru-ha-ha between Britan and Iran over the past 2 weeks caused oil to shoot up about $5.50 a barrel and once it was over it came down $2.50 a barrel. Someone sneezing the wrong direction over there can change the course of our economy over here. Nothing is certain.
  9. Googled most of it....
  10. Just saw this in that link I provided...
  11. Construction is about to take a huge hit as the housing market continues to implode. The mortgage industry is already hurting with at least 50 mortgage lenders gone bust. So government jobs added 23,000 Hospitals and schools added 54,000 Holiday Inn, Walmart, and Starbucks added 57,000....... Where are all the good paying tech jobs? Where are the good factory jobs for the people who can't get a college education? Asia that's where..... Where are the textile industry jobs? Mexico and S. America...
  12. What's the dial behind the shifter? nice car BTW
  13. he was against it.... cause he was planning on trying this years ago but then Daimler came in and stole the show.
  14. which life is your feline Aurora on now fly?
  15. I lease for just under the length of the warranty.
  16. GM Hybrid buses do more to help the environment than all the priuses sold ever.
  17. Chevy dealers "mad as hell" - target Tundra with ads link According to a recent Brandweek article, Chevy dealers are tired of waiting around for GM to dispute Toyota's Tundra claims, and they're doing something about it with a series of ads attacking Toyota and its pickup. One radio spot written by Mark Frost, general manager of Jim Ellis Chevrolet in Atlanta, claims Toyota recalled more vehicles in 2007 than it sold. "Folks, the reality is Chevrolet is better for you, your pocketbook and America," the ad says. Frost is well-known in the area for displaying a Toyota Camry in front of his dealership. Oh yeah, it's crushed beneath a Chevy Silverado. A Toyota representative called the recall claims "ridiculous." The Chevrolet dealer network is also circulating an e-mail attempting to discredit one Tundra ad claiming the truck is pulling 10,000 pounds up a steep grade. The e-mail claims the Tundra did not, in fact, pull a trailer loaded with 10,000 pounds of brick, but instead hauled a 5,000 pound trailer and itself (another 5,000 pounds) to equal the claimed 10,000. Busted! But wait. The ad's producer says it can document and prove the trailer was actually loaded with 10,000 pounds. Snap! It's really a shame to see Chevrolet dealers stoop to this level. Seriously, what do they fear? In February, Toyota only sold 10,000 Tundras to Chevy's 59,000. We say the best way to sell vehicles is to present the facts (facts, not propaganda) to the customer. With enough truthful information, buyers should be able to at least choose the best vehicle for their needs, if not the best vehicle period.
  18. based on looks and size alone it'll probably be priced higher than Taurus X... more into Outlook territory....
  19. and there is going to be a Lincoln version of this?
  20. What kind of turn of the 19th century switch gear is *THAT*?!?
  21. I think they were trying to make a point....
  22. M.S.R.P. starts at $26,995 for a turbo 2.0 with a stick....
