WOW First impressions are Clean and a soft spot for their attempt. After looking at the photo's at the link, I would not touch it as that is a rust bucket about to die. Amazing it is that clean inside. I figure the dealership or the original owner before trading it in cleaned it up to get best trade in value. The rust and cracks make me think it will just vaporize on impact with a Detroit pot hole.

Yahoo, reprinted a story by "The Street" that covers the top 10 WORST auto's ever in the world. Seems 8 of the top 10 are right here in the US. Look at the 10 and tell me if you agree. They start by saying #10 is the 1979 Oldmobile Station wagon Diesel and end with the #1 worst Pontiac Aztek. The pictures are in the order of the story. Their justification is interesting. Some of it I do feel is personal experiance versus actual fact, but each person is entitled to their opinion. http://autos.yahoo.com/news/10-worst-cars-of-all-time-revisited-012257791.html;_ylt=Al5rVgaNjh2_MKSMECEr4nImhvZ_;_ylc=X3oDMTduaWFhdTdlBF9TAzIxNDY4NjI2MzAEYWN0A3RpdGxlBGN0A3NsaWRlc2hvdyAoZW1iZWRkZWQpBGVkAzEEaW50bAN1cwRpdGMDMARscG9zAzIEbWNvZGUDQWdCVExiWVFBRjBXRUFCY1FCQUFTVnNRQUFLRwRtaWQDdGQEbXBvcwMxBHBrZwNpZC0zNDY3ODE0BHBrZ3QDMQRwb3MDMwRzZWMDdGQtZmVhBHNsawMxMCB3b3JzdCBjYXJzIGV2ZXIgbWFkZQR0YXIDaHR0cDovL2F1dG9zLnlhaG9vLmNvbQR0ZXN0AwR2ZXJzaW9uA2xlZ28Ed29lAzIzOTc0MjY-;_ylg=X3oDMTE5bXFkMXMyBGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDBHBzdGNhdAMEcHQDcG1o

Infiniti News: Rumorpile: Infiniti's 700 Horsepower Flagship
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Infiniti
My world travel especially in Europe has shown me that the S Class is a heavily used Taxi of nothing special porportions. SMK you have been drinking way too much MB Coolaid. MB Auto's are Over rated, Over priced and just plain boring. -

Infiniti News: Rumorpile: Infiniti's 700 Horsepower Flagship
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Infiniti
Very Cool, I think AWD Hybrid is the way to go to get all the power that is possible down to the ground. Safer rides with better efficiency. I like it. -
This. Would like to add that maybe the Omega sedan should not be named LTS but instead get a 'real' name. Escalade and the Omega woulg get 'real' names, the others would stick to 3-letter names (though I personally might favour a 4 letter naming for the crossovers - ATS-X and CTS-X) I totally agree with this, use X to refer to AWD Crossovers and then keep the name for Escalade and the Omega.

Maybe they could then properly fund the pension funds and not DUMP them on the Tax payers like the Airplane companies have done.

Nice Truck, Personally, I feel your just going to throw money away, you will miss the much higher mileage of your bug and you will be right back looking to get something else in 9-12 months taking a major hit on this truck. I think you should hold off for the Canyon/Colorado twins.

+1000 to Drews last comment. There is no real justification for this Tesla denial of selling direct other than others do not want to have direct sales push in on their franchise.

AWD to performance auto's is a must today. You have the Young generation that has grown up on WRX/STI and EVO and they say I love the look of the Camero, can it get me up the mountain to the ski resort safely? Yes some will say sure as is put on snow tires, most today want AWD and just drive it up and not have to deal with chains. I say GM WOULD see a Solid sales increase with an AWD Camero.

Input on new tires for my '08 Pontiac G6
G. David Felt replied to GMTruckGuy74's topic in Product Questions and Reviews
Coopers have been a love hate relationship. Some people have loved them some have hated them. I have never really gotten a good feel or picture so I could not say one way or another. Firestone, I would stay away from. I have not had any good experience. First time a tire tread came apart, the replacement under warranty blew out the sidewall. After that, I decided my family and friends quality of life was worth far more than saving the few bucks. I have gone with Costco and Discount Tire and never had a bad experience. -
Very cool posted Picture, Thanks never looked at the speedways this way. In regards to the streets, I would have to challange Canton. I know that some of the streets in San Francisco are darn near 45 or so based on even the trolly's do not go up them. I will also have to next time I am out walking around Seattle take a few pictures of some of the streets that connect the main roads as they sure seem to be around the 45 degree area as they to me look steeper than the race track.

Hit the news this weekend, A rare fully restored 1979 El Camino was stolen 1 month after the owner dies leaving his son and family devestated. Beautiful Ride, for those that can Apprecaite the time and effort that goes into making a auto this sweet. http://www.king5.com/news/cities/olympia/Rare-restored-car-with-sentimental-value-stolen-in-Olympia-250433281.html

The Euro Union dictatorship approach to Auto's is going to force some companies / divisions to either die or run away to far more friendly countries. I understand that the emissions is an issue, but for a company like Rolls you would think they could find a better way than a plug-in hybrid. A volt type power train makes far more sense.
