New 2014 Police Chargers, all black with no markings other than the lights for Edmond's and Mountlake Terrace Washington. They must have just got them. They were at the local Country Donut place this afternoon, funny to see cops comparing rides. The cities but up against each other.

That is one ugly bug. Needs to be squashed dead. LOL

I would take a good American auto with a V8 over any of the German turbo 4 bangers or 6 any day. I can expect a low cost maintenance and long life compared to the over priced imagined value of BMW or MB.

Interesting that this is one of the few times you have a TDI that is priced below the rest of the gas lineup. With Audi's Generic Bland Jelly bean design language, I think they need an update as this will get them a few more sales but not the growth they are thinking. Pricing seems to be inline with this class of car. Better than MB or BMW, that is for sure. -

MB like BMW seems to have gone over the top in building over priced cheap auto's that only Badge snobs would pay for. They have Whored out their product line and need to clean house.

Very cool, not bad less than 2K for the repair. Thanks for posting.
-
For under 12hrs of work that is not bad. If you do not mind posting it, what was the final price tag for this damage?
-
Awesome, so happy to see they are finally going with this standard and they have done a great job. I think this will only help GM.
-
Awesome, another fine example of taking care of your ride pays off!

Volvo News: Volvo May Export Vehicles From China To The U.S.
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Volvo
Private car services will love a long wheel base auto and I am sure limo companies will use them as corporate cars. I also believed that the Long Wheel based Cadillac would find a market here but when you have a dealership / auto company on deaths door, this is not the right answer. I agree with you Drew. -
We'll GM will be out of the spot light soon as FCA and Ford and who knows who will be next will move into the spot light just so the different Departments and the House and Senate Idiots can justify their jobs since they are getting nothing done. I so hope this fall every established member of the house and senate looses. We need to clean out the lead in DC!

I like balthazar sleep like a stone. With Sleep Apnea and Narcoleptic I get at most 3-4hrs of sleep a night. usually 1-2 5 min power naps during the day. Since I do not dream I never miss anything. Like many have stated, once I start thinking about work or projects I am pretty much lost to being up. I will say that working out daily keeps me going strong and able to recover fast in my 3-4hrs of sleep a night.

I agree that as big as I am, I grew up driving a restored 1976 Chevy Luv Truck Series 5. Loved that little truck and wish we had mini trucks again. So I created what I would love GMC to do with the Terrain.

Go to the following web sites and put in your zip code and it will show you all available CNG stations and their current prices. http://www.cngprices.com/station_map.php Then you can enjoy more HP and Torque on 130 Octane Fuel. Zoom Zoom!
-
Always cool to get updated information. I am very excited for these trucks. Just wish it was a true mini and they would get a decent engine with more torque than the HP. Trucks are for work, they do not need a ricer type HP heavy engine with little torque. They need it the other way around with more Torque and equal or less torque.
-
Convert to CNG, your pocket will love you and Earth will love you for not blowing out the green house gas from the Tesla Battery production.

"The Beast?"

Love the body on the new full size SUV's but love the older nose on the chevy more than the new nose. Mazda 6 I have to disagree with everyone, very ugly car with a big nose on it.
-
I have stated many times that GM could win big if they would bring back a true mini pickup truck as city folks would love to have one for inner city work. Plenty of needs for a mini truck.

G. David Felt Alternative Fuels & Propulsion writer www.CheersandGears.com Top 10 Most Stolen Autos Some might consider it an honor, others a sad statement of the times. No matter how you look at it, it is amazing that in a short 12 months from the last report from the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) that we have gone from a top 10 list of most common stolen cars to SUVs. REPORT HERE Top 10 List of stolen autos #1 Ford Escape #2 Ford Edge #3 Ford Explorer #4 Jeep Grand Cherokee #5 Kia Sorrento #6 Chevrolet Traverse #7 Nissan Rogue #8 Honda CR-V #9 Toyota RAV4 #10 Chevrolet Equinox Compact SUVs were stolen twice as often as full-size SUVs according to the study finds. The most popular state for SUV thefts was California, followed by Florida, Michigan, Texas and New York. So are the thefts driven by what is popular to buyers or is there another reason behind this change in stealing tastes? In years past ease of breaking into an auto and hot wiring it was sited as the reason for the auto's being stolen. With today's technology, this has changed and forced thief's to become more tech savvy. Interesting enough is that the most popular unrecovered SUV is the Jeep wrangler. Five states actually had all stolen autos recovered. Seems the south is far more popular than the north for stealing. If you are interested in more details than just the basic report on the link above, you can get the following information from these links. Thefts by State report here Data Analytic report here Insurance Loss Information from the National Institute for Highway Safety Top 10 Most Stolen Luxury Autos #1 Mercedes Benz C Class #2 BMW 3 series #3 Infiniti G series #4 Mercedes Benz E Class #5 Cadillac CTS #6 BMW 5 series #7 Lincoln MKZ #8 Acura TSX #9 Lexus IS #10 Mercedes Benz S Class Data Analytics report here Top three states were New York, California and Florida for having these autos stolen. The Infiniti G Series is the most unrecovered auto.

Glad to hear it is just a sore back DF. Sorry to hear about your car, sucks as our beloved rides get older, the insurance companies want to just throw them away and move on. Good Luck with getting her back on the road.

Gret write up, very informative. I will add that I had the chance to drive a coworkers QX70 and for 6'6" tall I am able to sit in the car slightly reclined. The car is awesome to drive, responsive and has like my Trailblazer SS AWD a nice exhaust note. With that said, no one can sit behind me at all and I could never sit in the back due to the coupe roof like just no space for tall people or leg room. A nice luxury driving machine for two people who want room to carry stuff. Would love to see how this does against like vehicles from a performance stand point. Quirky AWD Performance CUV's. What other ones are there?

This makes one wonder if the CEO has decided to attack every little thing and get over the issues even the smallest so they can move forward with bullet proof line of auto's. At least I am hoping this is the thinking.
