    PICTURES PLEASE!!!!

    Very true Hyperv6 as the filters coal power plants here must use actually are pretty darn clean. China needs to get with the rest of the world and start cleaning up their act.

    This Grill is perfect for GMC

    I personally wish GMC would get back to their grill from 94. My 94 GMC Suburban has that Chrome ring around the big outside, but then pitch black slates and a bright Ruby Red GMC floating in the center. That just rocks IMHO. This is close but it still needs to be jet black or Black Chrome with the red GMC.

    My one BIG draw back to CUV, Lack of a real SUV sitting position and aftermarket lift kits. Compared to BOF Trailblazer and the ability to do aftermarket lift-kits for off roading. I would love it if I could get a 6" lift kit for the AWD Terrain so I had the high visibility as I love the Terrain body style. Just need it to sit up about 6 more inches.

    But it is not full size!

    It could if they kept the new engine lighter or was able to drop weight in the over all auto, but then you have all the new emission parts including heavy liquid pee to help destroy the partical mass output.

    Japan does need to drop their protectionist laws.

    I think any Unibody could be given what people have come to expect out of BOF if it is done right. GC has proven that, but sadly we have lost what was gained with the hummer for offroad capabilities and the GC seems to be the only game in town with that capability now. I would like to have a BOF capable or Uni capable SUV/CUV if they would just pay attention to those extra details.

    Sounds Like they have a new global focus on their diesel platform. I wonder how much more this new engine and emission system will cost.

    Riviera74 I do agree with you that it would be nice to have the rest of the world have a more open free market system, but they do fear the US ability to bring things in fast and cheaper than local companies could grow. I think the chicken tax needs to stay on more items forcing them to be built here or pay up.

    Hopefully, Chevy and better yet GM can have the right people in place to say "Game On!" for both cars and trucks. Game changers need to be there for every product line to show segment leading design, technology all at the right affordable price.

    CNG is being used to replace dirty coal as fast as possible. But even then we still need more power. Interesting is Washington State has huge wind farms and 25% of the time they are offline due to no room to store the power as we have an abundance of Hydro Power. We need storage farms that can hold the power generated by wind and solar and then transfer it to areas that need more power.

    If the GOV did not require all the stupid Nanny devices and car companies had a reasonable 12-15K mini pickup truck, you would find plenty of buyers. The luxury of owning a car is a privilege one earns not a right and yet many think like cell phones and internet that they have a right to own one. Pricing has gotten crazy out of control.

    I would rather they focus on streamlining the tax code, cut the pork out of the budget, reduce the over abundance of military bases around the world and term limits. Two terms for Senators and 6 for house members. This way both parts get 12yrs to make a difference before having to go back to the private sector and their benefits package and retirement perks. All goes away and is folded into Social Security and Medicaid. This way they get the same as the rest of the country. Then they will have inspiration to fix things for good.

    I agree with you Roger, I think GM should be able to do this BOF Trailblazer on the same line as the Colorado/Canyon and take care of all us BOF lovers and make money while winning conquests from the 4 Runner crowd or Pathfinder crowd. I have a friend that has always driven 4 runners with v8 and when Toyota stopped offering them with a v8 he stopped buying and held onto his last one which was from the last year they offered them with a v8. Like me, he is not looking at the fuel mileage but the other capabilities of what the BOF SUV's have to offer.

    Those cloth covered cars just need to die and go away. How ugly. Sad for the dealership. Seems Buick was a bigger focus than cadillac based on the signed one sees. Thanks for posting, always interesting to see what has become of the older dealerships that closed down. Guess just dust bunnies.

    While that is fine for those that want to live in Vancouver, for those of us that do not like living like a sardine it is hell to get in and out of your city. Living just south of you, I would not think twice about heading north to shop and enjoy the parks of Vancouver. Yet with limited parking, congested streets and a tough time getting in and out of the general area if you do not already live there, the desire to turn the city into a walk / bike city does not work for those not living in it. Seattle has been drinking the stupid cool-aid of the Cascade Bike club and take away street parking and street lanes to convert them to bikes and yet bike riders seem to still not want to follow the rules as if the rules of the road to bikes is a double standard. Bike riding is fine for those living in the downtown city and they do need them to be separate from the cars on the road as well as the walkers on the sidewalk. Yet they also need to charge these bike riders and make sure they have a license and know how to handle their bike. Back on subject, I agree with Drew that entry level auto's do NOT spark any passion for youth to want to own. At the same time the youth of today have become more of an entitlement crowd and do not seem to want to bother to learn how to repair or take care of anything. Disposable society is what I see today's youth being. My first auto was my dads clean but well used 76 Chevy Luv truck Series 5. Cost my dad $1675.00 new, I spent another $1K restoring it to like new condition. This included rebuilding the engine, transmission and differential on top of a new dash, interior and paint job. By the time I was done, it took care of me very well till I sold it in 89 $3500 to a lady that still has it today. Needs major work, but she still drives it. I took the time to learn to fix / repair things. The drive to learn, repair/fix and satisfaction of ownership / pride in what I had is what is missing from the Disposable youth of today IMHO.

    Very Cool, Hopefully CNG also.

    And now Yahoo has the Top 12 Most Embarrassing cars. I have to disagree with #3 as I love #3 and own a Hummer H2 http://autos.yahoo.com/news/12-most-embarrassing-cars-192622446.html The rest I think are pretty spot on.

    Interesting mule trucks. True to form, they do cover the work world.

    Seattle has seen it's population decline and I believe that is due to the lack of quality housing, there is a huge building boom going on and it could change later this year once things finish up but for now the rural region is where peeps are at so car sales are pretty solid here.
  24. G. David Felt
    Totally agree with you. Back in the 80's washington state had a major Nuclear plant series being built. They stopped after 2 plants and scrapped the other 4 and were forced by the state to refund millions back to the citizens. Did not go over well with the power company but the people loved it and I agree that they should refund all of it.

    Yea, would not want an electric car in Florida.
