    That Rocks Dwight Thank you!

    Agree, instant collectors item, but I bet you could purchase base level mini and then just pull out the back stuff to convert it cheaper than paying the chicken tax. Stupid tax's IMHO

    Maybe it will come triple turbo diesel for the little truck like this!

    The interface of their nav/infotainment system looks like it has really small buttons. How responsive was it and did they lock it down during driving so you could not interface with it?

    Awesome Post Dwight, thanks for sharing this standardization of engines. This totally makes sense for a Global platform with minimal cost to meet the the needs of the market place. My question for you, if you had to do this same list for CNG and Diesel, what would it look like?

    Stopped by Seattle Jaguar/Range Rover to look at the cars and ask about Jag's SUV. Interesting is that the sales people are very excited about it. The Man in his late 40's told me that they have many Jag customers that are truly not interested in the Range Rover and have been asking for a Jag SUV that follows the body style of Jag rather than the Brick Block of Range Rover. They have been able to sell a number of Evoque since it came out to Jag owners, but he said for this market Jag owners are pretty loyal group in Seattle. With that said, I would love to see someone here who has some drawing skills take the current curvy body of the Jag and produce a SUV based on that style so we could see what it might look like.

    TOTALLY COOL! Yet I do find it amusing that in the background at 43 seconds you have an old GMC truck. Nice way to tie in the whole family!

    Hopefully they are spending money on the interior also...the current, dated Colorado looks like they budgeted about $10 for the interior--cheap and nasty inside. I agree that the current interior is a bit cheap, but then my 72yr old father has one and loves it and thinks it is perfect so it could also be a bit of perspective. The younger groups just have higher expectations and yet with that said, if they are not willing to accept less features / base level auto's will never be in the reach of someone just starting out. Not every auto needs to have a cadillac interior.

    Nice review, how is the seat support for what should be a sport or semi performance model? My two issues with this car is the big black mouth on the front that mimics Mazda's poor style of a grill and the tight engine bay. For a GT car, this car should be a performance fun package but also leave a bit of room for 3rd party tuning and based on the picture supplied it looks real tight so that 3rd party companies might not bother building a turbo kit or other performance mods for the car. Over all I would say Hyundia will have a success on their hands again with this new model. I just wish they would get an engine that had some Torque as all the horsepower in the world is useless unless you have the motivation to move the 3000lb mass and that comes from Torque.

    Plus the plastic cover does say V6 VVL I hope someone snaps a pic of the oil burner version.

    Hopefully a 3rd party company will realize the benefits of this and build a kit truck of the Avalanche.
  15. G. David Felt
    Yes they are taking a long time but next year when it does come out and has a torquey little diesel under the hood that makes it move, all will be forgotten by those that love this high mileage oil burner.

    What else would anyone expect of SRT division but to say that it will be staying around. Personally, I could see Dodge being the performance division with Chrysler being the family division much like how people wanted Pontiac to be a true performance sub group under GMC/Buick. Yet with SRT filling that roll, it does make one wonder what the real future is for the two brands. There is room I believe for DODGE to be a SubGroup of Chrysler. Families go to Chrysler for cars and minivans. If they want excitement, go to a dodge. Pure performance SRT. If you need a 4x4 SUV, then Jeep and RAM for trucks. I think this makes sense.

    I can see a quality car only focused company for Dodge. Leave the Mini Van in Chrysler and the SUV's CUV's to Jeep.

    My brother inlaw called last night to ask me where he could get a new AC pump for his sprinter since the AC died yesterday during the work day and with temps in the 80's which is hot for Seattle he was dying by the end of the day. Pointed him to a place I use to get all my AC and Radiators since they wholesale to the public. Dodge wanted $1590.00 to replace the AC pump and recharge the system. He called and the new DENSO Pump was $195.00 plus about two hrs of his time to change over the pull and recharge the system. Cool as cold!

    I agree with you Drew, the Lamps and Sign had a style that really needs to come back. Current versions are just so BLAH!

    Black-knight, that 2000 is a sweet ride, nice job it was clearly meant to be for you to have a drama free 4x4 back in your life. Enjoy it as I really like the style and think Jeep needs to remember not every Jeep needs to be a Jelly Bean.

    Love them both and can actually see Chevy selling both here. I really would love to have the Ute here as I deeply believe there is an underserved market for a truck like that.
  22. G. David Felt
    I think this would appeal to anyone even in their 20's or teens who love to drive and love performance. This should attract attention from those that are into auto's, play racing games, go to car shows, etc.
  23. G. David Felt
    I totally agree with the ditching the DOHC and staying with OHV. I think they can still make great strides on a reliable engine with this technology.

    I will tell you this, you will like some of the changes GM has made to their ordering program.
