It can't cost GM $40 billion to develop a line of 4cylinder, 6 cylinder, and 8 cylinder clean diesel engines suitable for car applications. It can't cost GM $40 billion to do all that AND triple the production capacity of the Duramax for trucks.

I dont need your sympathy Theres nothing you can say or do for me And I dont want a miracle Youll never change for no one I hear your reasons why Where did you sleep last night? And was she worth it, was she worth it? cos Im strong enough To live without you Strong enough and I quit crying Long enough now Im strong enough To know you gotta go Theres no more to say So save your breath And then walk away No matter what I hear you say Im strong enough to know you gotta go So you feel misunderstood Baby, have I got news for you On being used, I could write a book You dont wanna hear about it Ive been losing sleep Youve been going cheap She aint worth half of me its true Im telling you Now Im strong enough to live without you Strong enough and I quit crying Long enough now Im strong enough To know you gotta go Come hell or waters high Youll never see me cry This is our last goodbye, its true Im telling you That Im strong enough to live without you Stron enough and I quit crying Long enough now Im strong enough To know you gotta go Theres no more to say So save your breath And you walk away No matter what I hear you say Im strong enough to know you gotta go

Silvy still got 1st with the 5.3 over the Tundras 5.7?

I'll take an '07. The XJ is still the best looking of all the super sedans though.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I'll take a 225hp/370ft/lbs turbodiesel CTS any day GM wants to make one for me.

As of yet, I don't know that he's seen it.... but no, it's not a joke. As of Monday night he moved out and we're in trial separation. He thinks it's just a temporary thing....as of now, I don't think I want him back.

In my CTS, the antenna is integrated with the rear window defroster.

Oh gee... I was off by 5% on a shoot from the hip guess.... :bowdown:

RWD hasn't seemed to hinder the sales of the 3-series, G35, CTS, 300c, etc. Only about 1/4th of them or less are sold with AWD <when available>.

would you recognize him if you were laying on your back?

New way for you to get those tough spyshots eh Chris?

That....... That's real!? It's... not a photochop?

don't I know it....

I'd be interested in knowing how profitable these cars are for GM.

the point is, you could have a toothpick or school bus..... either way, the feeling is the same.

heh, the tires comment is about the huge number of shoes he has. He has a black pair of shoes for every *conceivable* occasion.

can you all do a fellow C&Ger a favor and click "best of"? I'm sending a message to someone with this rant.

Low mileage, super-charged, no scratches or dings, slim attractive design. Performs great, but requires premium fuel. Recommend only filling up at Macy’s or Saks otherwise performance not guaranteed. Fuel from other locations may cause failure to start. People afraid of exotic Italian maintenance costs should look elsewhere. Was fun when I first got it, as the maintenance bills piled up, the fun factor went down. Requires synthetic oil. Recently being used by other drivers, but always garaged at home. Requires *HUGE* amount of garage space for the multitude of tires. Has NAV system, but generally drives where it wants, when it wants without regard for the owner. NAV system appears faulty as it frequently loses input, mis-interprets input, or ignores input all together. No warranty. All malfunctions are the result of “driver error”…..or so I’m told. Link

fixed

you're thinking Ford and Nissan.

GM's hybrid is 50% cheaper, simpler and provides 90% of the benefits. The other 10% is made up for by not looking like a pregnant shoebox.

omg! NG SRX SHELVED!!!!!!@#!!@!!!!!

uh, What about the Sigma and Kappa?

but, I'm thinking these numbers are now making the cars under-rated. Cobalts and Malibus regularly see over their 2007 EPA rating now.... they'll be even higher over their EPA ratings afterwards.
