Ugggg, 11 years old when a new CUV comes out. That is like 110 in dog years. Very long in the tooth!

Sounds like VW wanted a leadership change and he was given no choice but to move on.

How about we just forget about the whole ECO thing and Oil and go with CNG auto's. Mucho Cheaper price and way better ROI than the eco gives.

Looks like it was a fun test drive. Nice write up. I agree with Balthazar, it does look like a ford or ford looks like this ranger rover. Also I too want to know, how many things broke or just did not really work intuitivly like they should?

Freakin crazy when you can be paid 70K for sweeping floors.

I so love me this generation of Monte Carlo http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?zip=98043&endYear=1987&modelCode1=CHEVMONT&showcaseOwnerId=563264&startYear=1985&makeCode1=CHEV&firstRecord=26&searchRadius=0&listingId=319706655&Log=0

$800,000 for a cobra??????

Yawn, not interesting as long as they keep making cars for 5'8" tall maximum people.

Unions just have no common sense let alone intelligence to actually see what needs to be done to help save jobs and create efficiencies to save a place. Seems US unions are realizing they need to come inline with world demands on pay and benefits for basic manual task jobs.

Hate to say it, but I think you got this ALL WRONG. Baby Boomers love their full size cars. It is the folks these baby boomers breed that love all things small or vertical. All my baby boomer grand parents and parents love their big boat cars and most still have them. It seems the folks born late 50's to 70's seem to love their mini cars and or suv's.

You just have to find the inner OCD person in you.

Pretty freakin cool, thanks for posting.

Congrats on the car and your new Schooling. I know you will succeed and then continue to dazzle us with your writting. Greatly appreciated.

Cadillac does offer an auto that dwarfs the S class, Escalade it also dwarfs any SUV/CUV MB or BMW puts out. This is America's Full size car now.

This is a light version of a Predator. Swinging for the other team. They have no design language and just seem to copy elements from everyone else. I am shocked these cars even sell. So many better choices out there.

Just proves that we all have a mess in some corner of the house.

FWD - Four Wheel Drive Auto company. Bing it baby http://www.flickr.com/photos/porkypig/4656868235/ The FWD Battleship Dubbed the "Battleship" because of its amazing traction and ability "to go where no car could go" this 1909 Badger-FWD is generally regarded as the first four-wheel-drive motor car in America. It is the first of 10 such cars and chassis built during the years 1909-1910-1911 by the Four Wheel Drive Auto Company, later named FWD, Clintonville, Wisconsin. The car is powered by a Continental, 4-cycle, 4-cylinder, 45-horse-power gasoline engine and a 3-speed transmission provides a top road speed of 55 MPH. Its weight, including the hand-crafted, 7-passenger touring car body, is 3,800 labs. Its selling price, FOB Clintonville, $4,500.00. The original car is on display at the FWD museum and historical building in which it was built in Clintonville, Wisconsin (FWD Museum pamphlet).

Jeers, while really cool, not a practical use daily driver or modern camping. This is a great history note for a museum.

Very Sweet Ride!!!

Chris did a nice job on snapping the pictures of the auto. Looks like it will be a nice SS, should have a good smallblock v8 and if tuned right should handle very well.

Keep in mind, Full Size Cars have been replaced by Full Size SUV's, Full Size CUV's and the so called Mini Van that holds 7 or 8 people. Our Life styles have dictated this change, not all like sitting on the ground in traditional cars and more important is the change from large families to smaller ones and to a variety of activities. Traditional large cars do not cut it when you Ski, Hike, Camp, boat, etc. The variety of life activities has shown why the auto's have changed.

My lawyer drives nothing but cadillacs, and keeps them immaculately detailed. Why do you think I use him? Very cool, this is the first lawyer I have heard of that drives American. About damn time. THanks for sharing. Back to the thread, what about kit cars? I have never seen a vin on these cars and how the Skylines were built tends to remind me of a kit car. I do have to agree that removing a vin while illegal should not end in the destruction of two beautiful auto's. The prosecutor just seems like a dick.

Sorry just could not hold it in for these soccer mom mobiles.
