    Guess I am one of the few that actually hates the smartphone apps and slow 4g LTE response. (Interesting Observation that is confirmed by my wife and kids, we have unlimited Verizon and I have not been willing to resign a new contract. As such it seems even though they denies it that the upload and download has gotten worse) I would rather have a dedicated Nav in my autos. What the auto companies need to do is stop trying to reinvent the wheel and partner up with those companies that are already doing nav well and push out via satellite constant updated Nave to begin with.

    See this would be a perfect nitch for GMC and Chevy. Build a New Trailblazer Z71 4x4 with the H3 off road capability of 32 to 1 or 64 to 1 crawl ratio. Duramax 2.9L engine. Wash out inside Optional or standard OEM Roll Cage like the Wrangler. Priced in the Mid 20's this could do very well.

    I think the best thing that could be done is for GM to bring back a basic TrailBlazer with the Hummer H3 capability powered by the 2.9L Duramax Diesel at an attractive Mid 20's Price point and you will win over Jeepers who are looking for a Capable off road package. Trailblazer Z71 4x4 64 to 1 crawl ratio 2.9L Duramax Diesel Wash out inside. Option OEM Roll Cage This could sell very well.

    BMW is going down the WRONG road in doing FWD. People here see BMW as Luxury only with Performance Driving Road Machines and I see this backfiring for BMW. Oh well, they should use Mini Cooper to expand having Class 1 & 2 FWD appliances and not water down BMW. Europe might be used to this, but not the US.

    Awww poor wittle babby got his feelers hurt. black knight............where did you come up with that thought? Are you a preteen or what? I don't get your juvenile remark Ok, guess I am lost on the comments or it is an inside joke as this makes no sense to me.

    But they are both Ordinary as Lexus offers nothing special to stand out from the rest of the Luxury car companies. Their Idea is bland and boring, fall asleep at the wheel driving. They might as well merge with Google and just make all their ugly boring cars Self Driving since the people are more into their electronics.

    Exactly that is why the company should be focused on Quality. Building Quality will give you sales. Quality with Passion so the auto's stand out from the rest.

    You don't get to complain about jellybean styling by a domestic manufacturer ever again and I'm shocked you would ever wish a domestic manufacturer that is trying something new to fail entirely as a company. Someone just got spanked!

    Considering how long I have wanted a Duramax Diesel in a Suburban, This would be a welcomed auto. GM can bring economy of scale to these large family haulers and trailer towers while reducing the cost of fueling. I look forward to seeing this come out.

    So a little Birdy from GM Fleet made a comment to me and when I pushed she said she could not comment on future product. What was it she wispered to me you ask? I made the comment in talking with this individual who over sees the Pacific NW Fleet sales that I would love to buy a Diesel or CNG Suburban as Gas powered versions just do not do it for me. Her comment was just wait till the roll out of 2014 models and your wish will come true for Bi-Fuel. So I pushed her if this was an Impco product like their Bi-Fuel Trucks and she clamped up with the no comment on future products. So I am now thinking that since the 6.0 V8 in the Suburban is no different than the trucks and the better benefit is that the tanks can be on the driver side between the frame and drive line that this could be a very cool option. With the auto switch sensor between natural gas and regular gas, this could make for a great hauling ride and daily driver as it is cheap to fill up the Natural Gas. So what are your thoughts on this, would you be interested in a Bi-Fuel Suburban with about a 700 mile range using both fuels? Sound Off!

    Very Exciting to see, I wonder just how long Fiat can really survive. I still see only a rare Fiat on the road and the two dealerships here have hundereds stocked up. No matter what they do for sales prices, they are not moving cars. I am so glad Chrysler and Dodge are not going with Fiat cars. I know many here have said they build exciting quality product, but their style is ugly to me and many around Seattle that I talk to and quality/reliablility is another I hear brought up all the time. Maybe for the east coast being closer to Europe they love and will go with Fiat, but for west coast, seems Asian and American is the way to go. Mini being the lone exception and even then, the Mini dealership here has cut back on what is in stock as they are not selling much also. Seems a fickle crowd for compact, subcompact cars.

    I love the Idea, I agree all major autoshows should have their own folder and then by year under that. It would be great if you cloud list on each year folder the main contributors at the show so when you are looking for a specific writer filed story, just go to those by that person.

    Noticed on MotherTrucker, I did not have the option to upload any pictures, but other threads I get the button to click for other reply options which allows me to upload images. Figured it was a setting on that thread.

    Death is on their Doorstep, Someone will pick it up for a prize as Companies would rather pickup bankrupt assets than to partner up with a money burning company. My gut tell's me Death for Fisker by March. Bankrupt = Asset Sale by April or May.

    Come on up to Washington state and plan to drive what is considered one of the most beautiful drives in america. The North Cascade Highway. http://www.cascadeloop.com/ National Geographic has continued to vote it as one of the top 10 drives you must do in America.

    I love road trips and driving, no problem pulling 18hrs straight to drive to LA to go to Six flags or to visit relatives and see other sites and shows. But I know I am a dying breed as my kids want to be plugged into their electronics or sleep the whole damn time and not enjoy seeing America. The Y generation is truly lost out on what it is like to be in a freedom machine and drive the roads.

    I just love that engine on the cover of the GM Performance Catalog. The 502 RamJet is an amazing engine I wish was put into a Real SS Suburban!

    But you miss out on all the variations that are way to funny. Almost every vendor has 3-5 commercials and are running contest to pick the best one for Sunday. Without seeing them you do not know what you have missed.

    Interesting Jelly Bean of a car. While it tends to just blend in like all other commuter cars, I do apprecaite the Chris talked about a very important feedback. I love to drive and I want to feel what the auto is doing. If you do not know where the car is at any given point, then do not waste money on performance cars. The whole Idea is to becomeone with the machine and push the limits as long as you get proper feedback. Pass on the car, but glad it has some feedback via the wheel.
