  1. :( Sad but I totally Agree with you. While I am a Proud White American who lives in Seattle washington. My wife is from Korea, my education I got in Japan. Yet I believe we support and keep the profits here in this country for the betterment of all. My wife is a big USA only person, she agree's and loves driving her suburban or Caddy CTS! :D Yet her sister is what ailes us, Her sister will only buy Honda due to them being Superior autos that outlast anything America can Build. No matter what she reads about recall's, or her own grip's about broken issues in her Civic, she still say's it is superior to anything the US makes. I asked her what she has to back up this superior Claim and she points to the Auto Mag's and the youth market that has all those cool RIce burners buzzing around Seattle. Her Friends that also say the same thing but will quickly bad mouth a US auto even if they have never owned one. I took her for a ride in our Caddy and while she loved it, thought it was nice. She said she would not trade in her Honda as it was superior to the caddy. :huh: Like what dope are these younger people smoking. GM and Ford will have to save themselves and they will have to do it with changes from top down including the Marketing companies they use to get the message out and getting Auto's that drive passion. Right now Passion is missing from allot of Ford and GM auto's. For me, I just hope I can retire my suburban once one is available with the Duramax Diesel. :P
  2. <_< I hate Chrome, It totally has turned me off the caddy. I like the current model as it looks good with very minor chrome. The new one looks like something a Pimp would drive. Mercedes and BMW have made a fortune off Mono auto's. THere is no need for all the chrome parts that will end up rusting. Hell the 70's and early 80's taught us that the Chrom only ends up with Dings, looks bad and rusts. Even a new 300C I saw at the dealership with it's Chrome strip had a ding in it all ready. Chrome does not need to be on everything. I Love the BIG LOOK! B) This New Suburban reminds me of my current 94 GMC Suburban from the back end. It looks great. The current suburbans always looked like a bubble and small. I did not like them at all. <_< Yea for the NEW GM 900's :D
  3. <_< Maybe that is cause there is no Camero and only the Sting Ray is what will happen? :unsure:
  4. :P What a great start to an awesome Auto Year!!! :P
  5. B) This baby is SWEET!!! Yea this is so much better than the Mustang. I take one of these. :)
  6. <_< No we just need to shoot all these stupid Neo Conservative Asian Loving Fuggly's that have no real concept of auto's or any real understanding of a vehicle. These are the same idiots that could not turn a screw to save their life. BASTERED! :angry: This baby rocks and way better than any honda Element or any other Honda, Toyota or asian trash. If they made a real auto with real size for real americans, they would realize none of their auto's make any sense and would have to start over. Let the people that want to die young and be cramped have the Asian trash, I stay with supporting my US made Auto's. B)
  7. :puke: Tha is so Fuggly, they really should have just redone the Current SRT4. That will not be a hit at all except the dying baby boomers maybe. What a complete BOMB! :(
  8. :P Interior and over all Spec is nice, but the picture is Hideous. :( I Like the Chevy look better. Course I like the Denali Engine and tranny! :P
  9. :P YES, this baby is HOT and Sharp, I like it's looks even better than the GMC or Escalade Version. I just hope I can get the Suburban with the Duramax and have all the pulling I need. :P Rock on GM!
  10. <_< Yea, but they still are Butt Uggly or Fuggly! :P
  11. <_< H'mm Guess I will have to wait and see this display, cause the description is sure not blowing wind up my pants. <_<
  12. :P Talk about Fugging Ugly from Nissan. Mercedes, Can you say BMW Copy of the Ugly trunk! :lol: Course nice, but I take my Caddy any day over these unreliable Over priced Garbage. :P My coworker has a New s500 he spent his options on and was bragging about it, course now 6 weeks later, it has spent half that time in the shop and he has been in a E series loaner. :lol: Yea right Mercedes German Quality my ass! :P
  13. <_< We'll Good thing I did not stay up for this, I test drove an H3 this week and while nice, it is so underpowered. GM, Nice try, but you fell short again. :(
  14. <_< New Yukon looks like a softened current Escalade. Course the new Escalade is boring and not catchy at all, plus what is up with all the damn Chrome. Geeze, I hope I can order one with no chrome. I love the current Escalade with a mono color look. :( Over all while quality is sure to be there and better interiors, over all there is very little passion in these SUV's. :( Only the Tahoe really has a proper look. Hopefully the suburban version will be identical but available with a diesel finally. I have held off going to Ford as I like my GM better, but with no Diesel, this really kills us for those of us that tow. :(
  15. Keep in mind he has some large gains to offset this year so this just looks like smart tax adjustments to me. Use GM to offset gains on other stocks. :)
  16. <_< Actually Short term, let it slip to Toyota, no big deal, if the right moves are done internally at GM, strong product with High Quality comes out, they can pull the IBM move done in the 90's and regain the world largest auto company crown and be profitable with cash reserves. :P
  17. B) How about this take, Jeep for those on a low budget and young. Hummer those of us that started out in College playing with jeeps and enjoying our youth, but grown up to want more in a 4x4 as we go off road and having the cash to afford a more comfy ride. :P To me, both are awesome, just one fits a younger profile and income bracket and the other for those that have moved on up the road to the next level. Both still to be respected! B)
  18. :P So a search of 2007 Camaro on Dogpile shows a wide variety of car's, they all look like toy's. Green one, Red one and orange one with black racing strips. Are these the ones that has everyone upset? Seems Autoblog and GTPlanet have them all posted as the new camaro? Seems Smallblock.dk also has a yellow one with black strips. We'll I think this will be very exciting at the autoshow as I hope they look even better in person than on these pics. Finally a Solid Pony car from GM. :D :CG_all:
  19. :P Both Jeep and Hummer are hard core off road machines. I take nothing away from the Jeep, it has a loyal hard core following and with the Rubicon Jeep you really can not get a better OEM 4x4 with Detroit lockers front and rear for the money, I would challange the 27K price as Here in washington, you can not get one for less than 35K. That being stripped of only the base Rubicon, include all the upgraded stereo, etc the dealers put on them and you are in the 35-40K range for a Rubicon. Plus compared to the hummer, they have a known problem of rolling over more than a hummer. The roll over was one of the issues the military wanted fixed with the H1. Plus no diesel so if you look at the approach and departure angels, the diesel engine etc. You will find capability wise the H1 does beat the Jeep except for price. :P Yet every thing that has been written and shown by people that have the H3 or H2 is that they are every bit as capable and with the same awesome approach and departure angles that make these beast so trail worthy. Yes we all would like more power in the H3, Diesel would even be better and I believe we will see it come in both the H2 & H3 soon enough. I say leave the emotion at the door and talk hard core spec's about the rigs. Both are worthy and should be respected for what they are. B)
  20. <_< This is Fuggly, Lutz needs to retire, I do not see this selling to the youth, but only those to poor to afford a better looking car.
  21. B) Yup Here is my list of winners: All of Cadillac Chevy and GMC Trucks and SUV's. Corvette Pontiac GTO, sleeper car, very underrated by press and people in general. Solstic and the saturn twin. Biggest disappointments: Chevy, Pontiac, Saturn and Buick car's for the most part. Not there yet, ugly styling and still front wheel drive. Yes there are some cases for a solid dependable front wheel drive auto, but for me I want rear wheel drive. Short but Oh So SWEET! :P
  22. <_< Sad as these people who make a middle income salary are the REAL brains behind GM Products. It would serve the world and the company better if these Exec's, recognized the problems facing GM, Accepted a wage equal to the average wage for all employee's and gave up all but basic benefits to get the company on the right foot again. Then they have shown leadership and hardship on par with the employees and can take back an exec wage and benefits. I remember the day's when Iacocca took $1 a year till the company paid off the government and was profitable. Yes the Company also gave him a large stock package that matured over time if he hit specific goals and the end result was a profitable company, but at least no one on the assembly line on up could not say that the CEO and his mgmt team did not also sacrifice to save a company. GM Exec's still seem to be in an Ivory Tower that blinds them to the stupidity of this move. <_< :( Sad for all the salary folks and any other employees that count only on a 401K as a retirement plan. After all, I doubt I will ever really see Social Security when I retire in 37 years. :angry:
  23. :P Now it would be funny to take his 20 Point agenda, Add in realworld additions that make some of his points valid and then post it on his site. :lol:
  24. <_< Disappointed, Looks like a better refined version of the current Escalade and WAY to much chrome. The 20" are nothing special just conservative boring rims. Sad, I truly hope when I see the new line in person it looks better than in pictures. I also hope GM follows through on their comments and gives us the Duramax in the Yukon XL or Denali XL model. Diesel Rules! :P
  25. <_< IMO the 1st gen is better looking than the 2nd gen. I do not like that big ass chevy bar in the second one. It looked good for the 1st gen. I like an open grill area. :P
