Garage Question
Long term it would be nice as I plan to add to it in the near future, but have no problems with it being disabled for a bit. Appreciate the notice.

Sarcasm or did they really do this for a specific group of them? I am being totally honest about the letter for engine replacement that GM sent my dad. Had never seen or heard of this before. If Toyota is doing this for a small group of Tacoma's was a reason put out as to why?

Detroit Auto Show: Haven't You Wanted A Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG?: Comments
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)Interesting, looks way too small for me, but allot of people will like a MB performance CUV in the compact class that is a step up from Buick. Should do well initially. I wonder how overpriced it will be? Any pricing range announced yet?

Wow, amazing lack of driving skills or like you said just plain laziness. Interesting to see the ripped off fender flair of the Jeep in your second picture.

My dad still has his garage kept 2005 fully loaded extended cab colorado 2wd with only 45K miles, gold mist color and the 5cyl engine. He keeps telling me it is a collectors and I just smile. He can think that all he wants at 72yrs old. Interesting point is he has an official GM letter that says he can have the engine replaced with a new one at 100K miles. Not really sure why as they do not explain it but he has kept that letter in his complete file on the truck. I wonder if they are wanting the engine back to see how it held up????

Sales: Electric Vehicle Sales In 2013 Jump 84 Percent
Not surprising that those green freaks that have been sitting on the bench would jump at the lower prices plus heavy fed subsidies. Even is gas prices stayed steady, I think we will see a fall off in EV sales as you take care of those that want a luxury golf cart and the rest will go for the Hybrid types like a Volt. The rest of the masses will continue to stay the course IMHO.

Chevrolet News:2015 Corvette Stingray To Come Available With A Performance Data Recorder
This sounds very cool. For those of us that have used laptops to do this, it makes it much easier, but I do wonder if big brother will want to access this info if they use it on public roads. Have to be careful of where one uses it so you do not leave behind evidence if you do something not legal. I could see this on a future Fast and Furious movie where they show recording their street race and then going back to fine tune the auto.

2013 Toyota Highlander V6 4WD
Modern 4x4 with a push button is nice and simple, just push the button and that is it. The auto lock hubs do their job. No more manually stop, get out and turn the hubs and lock them and then go into 4x4 and move forward. You will love the ease of a modern 4x4.

2014 Signal to Trade it in on the new 2015 Canyon! FYI, filled up my Bi-Fuel Suburban over the weekend. 44 gallon Gas tank of Premium cost $178.20 to fill. Then time filled the CNG tank, which is 42 gallons cost me $35.70. So will be interesting to see how it goes with CNG. Will not be missing the gas bill at all, but nice to have it as an alternative fuel to fall back on.

2015 GMC Canyon
G. David Felt replied to GMTruckGuy74's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)I like these were in the Canyon is the 2015 Canyon! Sorry sarcasm like late night TV comedy eludes me. Never understood what people saw so funny in movies like Anchorman or Saturday night live. Why I stick to Fast and Furious or Resident Evil.

For $8K, which should I get?
Not sure where, but I am sure your area has the same thing as my area. Look at the Reposed / confiscated auto's. In washington state they all go to various auction houses and every saturday and sunday on the first weekend of the month they go up for sale to the public. I have seen some sweet deals where people have captured only a couple years old auto's for a few thousand dollars. This is what I quickly found in your area. http://www.athensautoauctionga.com/ http://www.georgiacarauction.com/athens/

Sounds like what has happened over the holidays at Eastside Catholic HighSchool. http://www.king5.com/news/local/Eastside-Catholic-resumes-school-protesting-students-will-be-disciplined-238813151.html The Vice Principal got married to his life long partner and the Principal told him to get a divorce if he wanted to keep his job or be fired. I hope he gets a much better job elsewhere. :o :o :o :o :o :o In the 21st Century while I understand the catholic church has a right to state their view, it is still WRONG for making a judgement call like this. Leave it to GOD if you really believe this idol exists. After all his bible written by men states that only he judges.

For $8K, which should I get?
QUESTION? Is the 8K the amount you have to pay down so the auto is paid for and you just have to gas it, insure it and drive it? Reason is that at least here in Washington for the 7 passenger CUV's, I see many fully loaded or well loaded for a reasonable 300 month lease payment. One option to consider so that you can get into something bigger and more reliable.
