This is not a disagreeable decision. The consolidation of Sigma and Zeta in the future was always an inevitable possibility. It makes sense from a cost-perspective, as well. Not to mention that there is the possibility of the ability to bolt-on some higher-end parts from the Cadillac models onto something like the NG G8 Coupe. I also hope that this NG Global Rear-Drive Architecture (lets call it "Omega" shall we? :AH-HA_wink: ) allows for diesel and hybrid options and a combination of both options as well. While it would have been nice to have a rear-drive Impala, I suppose if this front-drive model offers a different flavor and is larger in size in comparison to the Malibu, it could work out just fine. And there is always hope for a big rear-drive Chevrolet sedan (Caprice?).

Agreed on the wheels, Camino. I love the head-on shot of this car. It is low and aggressive without being totally vulgar.

I really appreciate the side sculpting and fascia design of this concept.

Why is Blu reminding me of my current desktop?

Volkswagen, ah? Can't say I disagree with that choice. Now, that said, let us see some pics. But not of the Golf. I already know what one of those look like. :AH-HA_wink:

ghost If you ever get the chance, mention to that someone in your family that Pepsi in the United States should not be made with HFCS. I have tried Pepsi from South of the Border, which I believe uses cane sugar, and I very much love that stuff. It tastes better. :AH-HA_wink:

Me personally, my favorite Colonnade A-Body is the '73 - '77 Cutlass. The side sculpting is pretty muscular. I like that. And the Monte Carlo of that generation almost ties with the Cutlass for first. Almost. :AH-HA_wink:

I won't argue for a second that you had a negative experience with your Blazer and that it wasn't up to standard in both quality and reliability. I mean, that does happen, no matter the vehicle. And you are the one who owned it. I didn't. End of story. But just because your Blazer was a poor example does not mean that there were not good examples built as well. On a slightly different note, I have always considered reliability and quality two separate things. Reliability being the measure of the trustworthiness of a product, and quality being a measure of the workmanship of a product. They do go hand in hand, no question. But sometimes, for example, you will see a car with horrible quality turning out to be quite reliable as well. (Ex.: Some British Leyland products.)

XP, I have just gotten off of the phone with the owner. He told me that he is asking fifteen-thousand for it, but he will take twelve-thousand. He said that he has to make back the investment that he put into the truck. Well, now you have the number you can call, and the asking price. The ball is in your court now. I hope that I helped you in your search.

Indeed, it is not an easy task, given that Unions do possess bigger muscle than they did way back when. But it could be done. The UAW are overstepping their limits. I would understand such actions if they were underpaid, overworked, and placed into very dangerous conditions on the basis that they work at their jobs. They should be taught to not take their well-paid, well-compensated jobs for granted. There are plenty of people out there who would enjoy to have the opportunities they have been given. It is time that someone kicks the UAW, and the other greedy unions like them, down a notch and puts them back into their place.

Bring on the Scabs!

I wish that a local junkyard would pull a similar promotion. My Sonoma would have leather seats and a console by now, if so.

If so, I will have Lars Ulrich's head on a pike and use it as my personal bowling ball.

When I attended a car show Laurel County yesterday, I happened upon a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS in silver. What a beautiful car. There was also a 1970 Chevelle SS396 there as well, and for sale, costing a healthy thirty-thousand dollars. Needless to say, I was in heaven.

Back on topic, would you like for me to call that number XP?

You are walking on a very thin line when it comes to that fee, all I will say. I also forgot to mention that I randomly collect my dues pertaining to that fee, as well. It could be tomorrow. It could be five years. Who knows? The last guy who I collected from was not too happy about the timing, by the way. j/k
