Thats pretty stupid. I actually like the chrome grill better, its makes it much more Velite like.

is the chrome grill optional ??

Me and my son are going to the Detroit show this year...First time ever!

Well there is no option in the options list to change the interior trim. So im guessing that if you get an LT or an LTZ you get wood and if you get an LS you get metal.

Can't wait to see the new crossovers in Detroit! I'm actually attending the show this year, first time!

I use Rogers Wireless in Canada and I baught the Motorola V635 over the Razr because the Razr has an awful camera compared to the V635 and I dont care if I have the smallest cell phone out there. Also to get this new Samsung phone I would have to switch networks and I dont want to do that, especially now because Bell Mobility and Rogers are building one of the most "technologically advanced" networks in the world next year that they will be sharing.

Is the Acadia scheduled to appear in Detroit ?

My son, with the Cobalt SS, just got his license 2 months ago and we pay $150(CAD) a month for insurance.

Will the next generation Envoy and Trailblazer be at the 2006 Detroit show ?

I was reading an article about 2 months ago that stated if GM were to go bankrupt that the entire US economy would crash. They also said that the government will eventually have to step in and help out with health care and pension costs.

British Columbia's minimum wage is the highest in Canada....$8.00 per hour. I hear they are trying to increase it to $8.50 per hour.

Value Pricing was never meant to affect 2006 SUV's and Trucks. I dont have a problem with GM adding incentives to vehicles that are starting to be replaced in 2 months. You won't see incentives on vehicles like the HHR or Solstice, simply because they sell themselves. Once GM has the GMT-900s out they will sell themselves too and won't require incentives. I look at this as GM cleaning out their old product to make way for the new.

Im thinking there will be a 2wd option later.

I decided to take some pictures of my sons car with scenery the other day. I was hoping other people have done the same thing and would like to post them.

I saw this in person about 1 week ago and these pictures just dont do it justice. Wait until you see it in person. We saw a deep red Yukon Denali and it was just amazing.
