So revisiting this as a potential project. I found this web site and they had a Pickup Truck Project they did that is pretty freak-in cool. http://www.thedieselpage.com/features/project2-16.htm I purchased their conversion book: http://www.thedieselpage.com/duramaxconversions.htm It is pretty cool, even a pattern on how to build your new motor base mounts that the Duramax mounts would connect to. They do say for Suburbans, you have to do a 2" body lift for the Allison transmission to fit in properly. Your thoughts on this now?

I am very excited for this to see if they have fixed the one major problem with the current Escalade, the lack of headroom for those of us that are tall. At 6'6" tall I love my current 2006 Escalade ESV Platinum and yet the current model I cannot fit in as the seat does not go low enough to allow me to sit upright. I do not buy auto's that require reclining. As such, I am very much interested in the seating of the new Escalade. The only thing I have a pass on is the damn high belt line. Do not like the smaller seats.

Never understood the need for timing belts when timing chains proved themselves long ago.

Latino rights promoter and famous over acter Ricardo Montalban playing along with Chrysler's not-from-Corinth Corinthian leather. If you think this is just some funny random old car ad, it had a serious, lasting effect on people. Baby Boomers loved the commercial and clearly bought the message. I feel we can learn much from the history of some amazing commercials and what might just be missing from getting people back into transportation. Quality is there, excitement is there, now we just need to find the right message to click for people driving again.

Jean Reno, is currently working for Toyota to try and get Japanese kids to drive again, particularly sports cars. Noble effort. Also, he's Doraemon, the coolest man in the known universe. So with this effort, what do you think of Toyota's attempt to get youth to drive again and buy cars? Should the rest of the auto makers also spend more time on courting youth to drive again?

Nice review, WOW is that the Road Salt on the auto? If so no wonder cars from back east rust out so fast. Crazy, like a salt lick.

It is a long way from the $25K I spent on my fully loaded LTE Suburban in 93. Amazing part is that Chevy is just as expensive as GMC and I would rather have an AWD compared to the Chevy 4x4.

Industry News: Annual Vehicle Ownership Costs Rise To $9,122
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
I can only assume that this outrageous figure is based on being a total pay to have it done by everyone else. I personally pay no where near this amount on any single car of mine. -

OUCH, they really zing ya for that throttle body. Good luck with it over the next few month. Hope it hangs in there and does not cause any more issues for you. Look forward to getting an ownership review once you get your new ride.

Maserati Gives The Details On 2014 Ghibli :Comments
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Maserati
Very cool details, I love that all the engines have real HP along with even bigger Torque that actually moves the ride. Should be great to have Torque monsters like this. -

Very true, I would think a 1L diesel should clearly give them a huge boost in mileage.- 7 replies

Saw an awesome mint condition Plymouth Fury III today. It really was sweet for a car that was not a sales hit that I can tell.
-
WOW, That really sucks. I am actually really surprised that they have manual adjustment lifters in this day and age. I do not think GM has any manually adjustable lifters in any of their engines in the last 15 years or so. If you do not mind me asking, what does Honda want for a new Throttle Body? I would clean it up and us it as a trade in for that awesome new Encore.
-
Yes I agree. This engine in the Encore would make that one hot ride!

Fiat News: Fiat Expects To Lose $10,000 On Every 500e Sold
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Fiat
The whole subsidy for electric cars is a joke. Electric cars are no where ready for mass transit, road trips, etc. Even with building a so called electric highway as they did in washington, Oregon and california with I5 having all these level 1-3 chargers, you still have excess days to get from state to state. You cannot go from say seattle to redding california in 1 day with an electric car. We should stop wasting millions on these charging stations and electric car purchases as we are only wasting tax dollars and burdening the future with debt and interest for the few that actually drive them. If they want to get greener, then they should put these subsidy in CNG as a logical next step away from Petrol.- 7 replies

I don't need an extended cab or dually...
G. David Felt replied to Camino LS6's topic in Auctions and Classifieds
WOW, that is a sweet ride. Very clean and nice. Amazing only 43K miles for 15 years old. They barely drove it. -
weird, I thought I was the only one that had imagined responses I did and I am noticing area's that I swear I responded in as not having any of my posts. Something really weird happened or the database crashed and was restored and it lost a chunk of our posts and changes. Very weird, seems big brother might be making changes or someone.
