Huge Epiphany
No. Rotations = revolutions. Typically, in 1 revolution of a 4 stroke engine, 1/2 of the total number of pistons fire. It takes two full revolutions of the crank for every cylinder to fire. I'm sure this varies by crankshaft design... but it's fairly close.

NOISY LUCERNE CX disappointing
They have a history of favoring foreign brands over domestic ones...... even when the cars come off the same assembly line. When one displays bias like that it is hard to deem the rest of the information as reliable.

exactly how small do penises get anyway.....?

NOISY LUCERNE CX disappointing
That is CR's way of saying "Pushrods suck". Keep in mind that the method's that CR uses to test cars...especially domestic cars...is not going to be anything remotely similar to normal driving.

NYIAS: 2008 Cadillac STS
Sounds like a good deal. I think I want to wait for the upgrades from this or the '08 CTS. Won't this make Cadillac the second youngest lineup in the GM fleet?

NYIAS: 2008 Cadillac STS
I have no problems with this car... it may end up being a 2 year lease to hold me over till the CTS coupe comes out.

SRX competes against 8 lux suv's in C&D
GM should really reconsider it's current stance on the future of the SRX.

FIRST LOOK: Buick LaCrosse Super
yeah, that..... it comes up in every stinkin Buick review.... as if *REALLY* mattered that much in a car. Toyota gets away with a 10 cent LCD clock in every car it builds though.....

Really GM... how hard would it have been to just use the Chinese design that you already did?

FIRST LOOK: Buick Supers
That Lucerne interior almost makes me think GMT-900..... not that it's a bad thing... but they should be more unique somehow.

Your nerd/geek quotient
I can out nerd most of you. My other common username is Drewbert. I have a small model of Spock on my work desk and two models of the Enterprise on my home desk.... and that's just the start of it.

GM Sued Over Inaccurate Speedometers

NASCAR Names
nascar is so f-ed up right now, I doubt it matters which car they choose to run as it likely doesn't do anything for sales anyway. You think Toyota is going to sell more Camries because they race them? They're all just jelly bean blobs with different stickers on them anyway. Wake me up when they race actual "stock cars"

Holden's Alloy Tech V6 (aka HFV6) responds well to software tweaks
So... if I read this right... he got it up to around the 255-260 mark that the CTS already had?

You HAVE to See This!!!!
what an ugly POS.

More Alpha bits n' pieces
I agree. The current CTS is within 1/10th of an inch of the 5-series. Given the engine choices that are likely to be available <3.6, 3.6DI, 7.0, with a possible bored out 3.6 in there somewhere> it lines up perfectly with the 5-series....especially with the new interior.
