    Ugly but intersting and I agree with Balthazar, it deserves restoring to take it's proper place in the history bucket of auto's,

    Interesting history, great to read!

    What happened to the photo's? I see nothing and I want to see this beauty.

    Just as many have imported real R34 and R35 skyline auto's into the US, time for you to do the same and get the Ute you always wanted.

    well yes, generally; but these guys beg to differ: The only Hondas I've ever truly loved. I do also like S2000's and Integras (and wish Honda would pull their collective head out of their ass and replace them already!), but everything else can GTFO. Thanks for prooving my Point of Booring, passion less and attempted knock off of Italian auto's. Sorry but Godzilla stepped on all these auto's and someone thought it was meant to be sold rather than recycled.

    No, the current Explorer is a FWD/AWD CUV, nothing truck about it. Ram is strictly truck and (commercial) van, Jeep is SUV and CUV, and Dodge is car only sounds like the long term strategy that Fiat is pushing towards... Yet people like my daughter who loves the looks and design of the Dodge Durango yet find the Jeep DNA repulsive. So then they just kiss off the hundred of thousands who supported dodge? If the durango had stayed body on frame, I could see it going into the Ram family, but as a UniBody, this SUV/CUV is fine in the Dodge family. I suspect the dodge dealers will not be too happy about loosing out to Ford and GM with only selling cars and no SUV's/CUV's.

    Kiss their technology goodbye as the Chinese take it all back to the motherland and eventually kill off Fisker. Another US created technology sold for instant gratification and the lack of balls on the investors to look long term.

    Killing off the Durango is the wrong thing, they messed up when they went from Generation 1 of the Durango to Frankenstein Durango Generation 2 full size and went down with quality. My daughter is still driving her 99 Durango saving money to buy a new Durango once the new engine / Tranny line up comes out. This should help gas mileage and with a new refreshed exterior and interior make it even more desireable. I see this as a solid cash flow product line and do not see it being killed off even when the wagoneer comes out. Just another eveolutionary change. The Durango fills a very nice mid size SUV niche that people are paying good money for. Why kill a cash cow?

    GM needs to controll the Bean Counters. We all need Companies to be run profitably with minimal waste, but Bean Counters is what destroyed this counteries Auto Industry due to going over board on cheapness. A luxury $100K should have high quality components, not the cheapest around. This does not mean you go with every Tom, Dick and Henry who over charges but I have to believe that $5 door handles are far better than $1.80 Door handle. GM America WANTS TO SUPPORT AMERICA!!! $5 USA Door Handle over $1.80 China made door handle should be the way to go! In fact, the top of the line American S class competitor should be 100% USA sourced, USA Built. Having Hand built engines in a customer top of the line USA BUilt Luxury drive. THAT IS WHAT AMERICA WANTS!

    This screams knock off Saturn. Nothing original here from China.
  14. G. David Felt
    Exactly, You read me well my friend.

    Blah, the bulk of the Mini Lovers have their cars and now they are just putting frosting on the same old tired Mule and it will cost them. I do not see them increasing sales but canibalizing existing sales with no gain.

    So after showing a SS concept that people loved. They ignor what the people want and went with a Blah v8 car that will sell limited and just blend in and not stand out as a SS should. Swing, Miss, Hit the shower. This was a lost opportunity for GM and they now truly are showing the bean counters are in control with no passion for anything special. SS should have been special.

    Yet if GM also gets in the game, betcha they will reconsider it and especially if the Asian brands get a diesel into their trucks.

    I thought they died trying to digest SAAB?

    Very True, my 2008 trailblazer SS averages 12mpg well below the estimated city/highway as it gets 75% of the time city and 25% highway since the wife drives it daily to college. Yet on a road trip I took, I reset the MPG and averaged 28 with my Corvette V8.

    Interesting, very nice design. I can see it selling well in Europe. Course if the Politicians did not tax everything so freaking hard with the socialist we provide everything, they would see more sales, jobs growth and people going out and about and wanting CUV's / 4x4's. The European Union is destroying growth with the provide everything attitude.

    EPA Reform I agree is much needed, but then changing anything anymore in our gov seems to be political suicide and everyone is only worried about keeping their golden parachute job than to actually work for the people of this country and make real change. At least this gives home owners and businesses a way to save money for using alternative fuels.

    Thinking on this, I guess one could say they have given a bland design that allows Tuners to come out with all kinds of Body kits and Performance modifications. So the After Market should do really good. But then why not make your top of the line car more distinct in the first place.

    NO NO NO, They need to be Second now that Ram took First.

    Guess I need to watch more TV as I do not recognize the Bazinga thing. What is it from?
