  1. Got it, good point, we do seem to forget the original start of using a specific moniker. Thank you
  2. Very cool that Cadillac has used it on and off, but since it is on their best performing auto that beats the germans, one does have to wonder if they are thinking Victory!
  3. Awesome write up, very enjoyable to read. I suspect the usual suspects will nit pick this apart as it still is not a german sedan.
  4. V for Victory! That is how I suspect Cadillac see's the V but would be nice to have some heritage behind some of this crazy stupid single, double, or triple letter designation.
  5. Agreed, but I did think it was a quick smart way to keep things going. I do wonder how long before we see other providers who are making all the other components as pure electric.
  6. I see no reason they should not do this, performance is always wanted. I do disagree that they will not do this to the Genesis line. Stupid.
  7. Warp motors, their 9, 11 & 13 both in dual motor or single can hook up to existing transmissions and they have a bracket that fits to the front to allow running all existing hardware. Pretty slick setup. If Subaru goes this route it will be interesting, but I also wonder how sales will go when competition has twice the battery range.
  8. Thought this was funny on an editorial write up about flying.
  9. Interesting, now Volvo is killing their Diesel engines as they focus on EV to replace them. Volvo credits Tesla for creating EV demand, says they will stop developing diesel engines to focus on EVs https://electrek.co/2017/05/17/volvo-tesla-says-stop-diesel-electric-vehicle/amp/
  10. Yes, Yes they doo look Pretty in there. Amazing that for the Mustang and Wrangler, the most common transplant is a GM small block put into those auto's. Nothing like a 502 GM V8 in your Wrangler!
  11. Hope this works out for them as I could care less about Fiat and the rest of the Italian garbage, but for the American Name plates, I would like to see them survive.
  12. Gotta love Nature hitting back. Sad for the Elephants, but no love for wanna be hunters aka big game hunters. Real hunters only kill for food. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/trophy-hunter-dies-after-wounded-elephant-crushes-him-in-zimbabwe/ar-BBBnAVE?li=BBnbfcL
  13. Agree, I have played with the finger print electronic door locks. But since we have seen so much high tech intrusion by hackers, I am wary of having cameras in my house, around it or electronic door locks that a smarter person than me or the gov could hack and get into. Latest versions my daughter got seem to work with no problem on her iPhone. My wife and I like to keep our hands open so no gloves for us. Then Seattle is not that cold for winter time.
  14. WOW, Very nice!
  15. Yes, Yes he did Master Yoda. Chevy paid the highest compliment by coping and then building a better small block that everyone loves to have.
  16. Maybe you should have built a better engine.
  17. Hellcat or Demon 300 would for sure drive some more interest in the 300, Chryslers lone sedan.
  18. Nicely Stated! @oldshurst442 I can respect your dislike of the screens in an auto. I on the other hand love them, I love the customization of what info you want and the various ways to present said info. I love having HUD. Once you drive an auto with HUD and custom screens, touch or not, it is very hard to go back to old style traditional manual gauges. If you have not test drove an auto like the corvette or any of the cadillac systems with HUD, I encourage you to do so, go through and choose one of the default screens to see the various differences including their old school analog gauge cluster look and still have HUD and I bet you will come to really like it. Pretty freakin cool. Course as a computer engineer, I love old to learn from, but preferre newer the better. Move forward is always good with tech.
  19. Grunge started here in Seattle, Big hit, the locals are very upset and many tributes to him. http://www.seattletimes.com/entertainment/music/tears-laughter-flow-from-crowd-of-400-at-chris-cornell-wake-at-kexp/
  20. Yes, Snide as I hate Sergio. Cool for the 300! Love the Idea of this for the 300. I think Sergio should have reinvested the profits into Chrysler rather than the stupid Alfa.
  21. Reminds me of your Shocking Personality!
  22. Chryslers last Hurrah? Hellcat 300? Autoblog, a news source you can love and hate and question, but is this late breaking story valid? Does it have teeth? Autoblog is reporting a possible Hellcat 300 might be in the works. Based on the pictures, I would say it is hard to say other than this has that traditional 3-4 inches of tire sticking out, brembo breaks so it might be true but then where the pictures are taken makes one wonder if this is just a personal pet project. http://www.autoblog.com/2017/05/18/chrysler-may-be-testing-a-hellcat-300/?hcid=hp-tile-small-4 So what are your thoughts? Is chrysler going out with a big bang?
  23. So your saying take this concept and turn it into a CUV AWD auto?
