  1. I think you'll find that a bunch of us called it overkill there too.
  2. it is not connected with the wikipedia the post regarding it's undertaking is here. And those facts<?> I typed in that entry came from "Cadillac: Standard of Excellence" Copyright 1980. But that's the beauty of it Balthy, go ahead and change them if I'm wrong.
  3. many people still refer to it as Detroit tho
  4. Well, the hope is that as knowlage of the autowiki grows, more people will contribute and fact check. It's not going to be just us doing the work. It's only 3 days old so far...
  5. I'll be there also.....
  6. The last time VW and Chrysler partnered up for a small car, we got this:
  7. Don't get your hopes up... it's really just two GM 4-speeds connected at the input/output shafts....
  8. Our "energy problem" is the fact that we're using non-renewable fuels in our cars. If we switch to renewable energy <which E85 is mostly>, our problem will go away. As far as cost? The country has nearly completed adapting to $2.50 a gallon.
  9. heh, sure... Fly also promised me a link here somewhere since it's going to be a sister site to C&G.
  10. I added all the brands I can think of guys.... have at it! :-D
  11. *I* say that you're dealer has been drinking too much E85...
  12. because I have plenty of penis already thanks....
  13. for very low values of "superb" and "design"
  14. fixed I'll be there on the 30th
  15. I don't think the main Wikipedia would appreciated 400 pictures of RWD, V8, Hardtop coupes like we might....
  16. Well... it's up and running.... don't just see it... contribute to it.
  17. Drew Dowdell posted a topic in The Lounge
    I'm starting a new website. It will is not going to compete with C&G but rather compliment it. AutoWikipedia I hope that one day, the autowikipedia will be an authorative database on automotive history so that we here at C&G and at forums all over can reference it. There won't be forums like what we have here on C&G, just a large database of our combined knowlage...and as the site grows, hopefully knowlage from users outside of C&G as well. This will be a huge undertaking and I'm hoping I can get a number of you to pitch in on writing articles. In addition, I'll need a few "moderators" to watch out for, and edit, the edit wars that can errupt on Wikis. As it stands now, the site is empty, I'll be working on it more over the weekend. Hopefully some of you will contribute. Thanks for listening. Drew
  18. We at C&G should make one. I own autowikipedia.com but haven't done anything with it. Would some of you be game to building a wiki?
  19. September 27th - October 1st Cars at Carlisle Who's going?
  20. Ergo a 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix v. a 1997 Buick Regal
  21. so... then why is Cadillac going "ouch" again?
  22. depends on how flexible I need to be. under 800 miles, I prefer the train. over 800 miles I fly. I'll only drive if I need flexibility at my destination or flexibility in my return trip.... and even then only under 800 miles. I'm one of the few Americans not afraid of public transportation.
