Yet...some still wanna dismiss Tesla... Porsche comes out with an EV... Tesla competitor that will eat Tesla's lunch they say... Bentley makes an EV... Tesla competitor that will steal Tesla's candy bar... Chevy makes the Bolt... Tesla competitor that will kick Tesla in the nuts... Yet...unconsciously, these haters of Tesla are unknowingly giving praise to Tesla... How? Like You said Suave...they themselves acknowledge Tesla's presence by comparing Tesla with the supposed old guard greats... "Either way, pretty shocking, how a company, with its first in-house developed car can be catapulted with the likes of the most well recognized and prestigious automakers in the world." and its these very haters that seem to compare Tesla cars to the greats by actually admitting that Tesla is in competition to these cars...actually....they admit that the cars that Porsche, Bentley, Chevy will eventually bring out are TESLA competitors...TESLA, will acquire competition...Telsa will acquire competition...meaning Tesla is the benchmark that needs to be dethroned... And they say...without any embarrassment, that Tesla is but a blip on the radar...and rookies building cars... And yet Tesla...is the ONLY pure 100% all electric vehicles on sale with 200 mile ranges...2 models...and counting... With an engineered platform that is solely for voltage power... Porsche's attempt is not for awhile... Chevy's Bolt is from a Sonic... The Volt is form a Cruze... It is to laugh... Tesla will continue to exist boys... Because electric power is the future...and it seems the old guard has no idea how to achieve the future....they still half-ass the EV...

Burning rubber... AC/DC style... High Voltage Rock-N-Roll

Doom and Gloom...*yawn* Enjoy your tiny blip on the radar screen, BLU.

I used own one of those brand new in the day...a teal/aqua blue green 1994 4 door GT...3.1 liter V6. I loved it. However, I would have preferred to have bought a 3.4 liter DOHC 1994 4 door Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme instead...

heavily photoshopped? And your point is? Who in the Entertainment world isnt heavily photoshopped? Even those young lassies in that OBJ commercial were probably heavily photoshopped... And Tesla knows how to pl;ay the game...so much so...that the old guard likes to play dirty with them...

Yep, I liked those too. I liked Tom Petty as well. I was talking to me partner today, he threw a Superbowl party. Always does. Def Leppard should do one!

I had to google that. Not sure what you found via googling, but 'B' = Beyonce. Some call it 'curves', some call it 'thick', I call it what it is : fat. She fat, and I'm not talking about phat. Yes...exactly. I got from the urban dictionary: fat, chunky, junk in the trunk, obese... So I immediately knew you were talking about my Beyonce post... Even white boys got to shout Baby got back! Ill spare you guys with yet another video!

At least the hockey team is a Chevy... And Chevy named a truck after the state..and my Jeep is named after a city on the Texas-Mexico border.. Not a Beyonce fan...her routine looked too much like something from Janet Jackson 20 years ago... but Gaga's performance of the National Anthem was great... I forgot about Colorado...I was thinking about the Avalanche...silly me... Honestly, I was not really paying attention to the show, I was perving her. I skipped the National Anthem... Sorry. Tell you what though. Ill stand up for 4 minutes for this rendition: (partly because I dont do Gaga either!, Hendrix ROCKS!)

I had to google that. I dont like skinny bitches.. I mean...skinny bitches are aw-ight. But I prefer my hoes with some meat on 'em. (I like to feel and grab) Id slap that ass silly..

"Buick is desperate to become hip." True dat... And THAT is why that OBJ commercial sucked big time... Not only is the "Not your father's Oldsmobile" shtick old and stale...from the Oldsmobile days...that angle for Buick has also come to an end....Buick should have ended that last year and for this Superbowl...number 50 might add, should have been something unique... Oh...because using an up and coming football star coining his own bloody name is pure marketing genius... Because Buick has not hired an athlete before in its recent past to pedal their cars... Because other car companies havent hired celebrities to pedal their cars before... At least Montalban was sexy, had a sexy voice and the cars he pedaled had fine Corinthian leather... The reason why Im giving you a hard time here is that you want to dismiss Tesla so bad, that you even want to dismiss their commercials yet obviously give a pass to a very mediocre effort by Buick for that stolen "This aint your father's Olds" campaign with a very very FORGETTABLE performance by the future NFL football star... At least withTiger, we could still picture him inside his SUV while his ex smashes it...too bad for Buick he was driving a Cadillac Escalade... You want hip...WHOOMP! THERE IT IS! The fastest growing hip sport Golf, and thegame'sbiggest star, ever, cheating on his wife...and then getting his SUV smashed with his own Golf clubs by his wife... Now THAT is hip! There is your commercial! All we ended up with is an ad campaign from the late1980s early 1990s with a couple of floozies at a "marriage" jumping for flowers and the guest speaker blurts out Adele... ooops...Odelled... Maybe they should have used Adele instead....look at that cleavage... I bet you that that cleavage could get guys in a Buick showroom faster than OBJ ever could... So...how about cutting Tesla some slack?

At least the hockey team is a Chevy... I ORIGINALLY WANTED TO QUOTE BLU AS WELL...I FAILED!!!

At least the hockey team is a Chevy...

I thought the game started at 19:00 hours yesterday. It started at 18:30....luckily I was recording it... OK...this is where my random thought really starts: I thought I was gonna catch up to the live broadcast at half-time...because...who the hell listens to Coldplay, Bruno MArs and Beyonce anyway? I know I dont... Well, lets just say I continued being about half-hour behind...(behind...yes, carefully chosen word) I was looking at those legs...those are mighty fine legs... Here, let ZZ Top say a few words on my behalf.

Well Reg, I guess Tesla's commercials are not as epic as what we saw from Buick yesterday... Yeah...I mean a couple of broads trying to catch a bouquet of flowers and a couple of idiot guys saying that they "Odelled it" and then they couldnt believe the convertible was a Buick just oozes betterer baby puppy monkey baby monkey puppy... Awesome machines. Both of them. Somehow this song is appropriate for this moment... Because in a way...the Golden Age of Horsepower is NOW! A Second Coming... The Charger is a modern old school muscle car while the Tesla represents the future... Enjoy! PS: If the rat pack was still alive...Frank and Dean and Joey and Sammy, they'd be robbin' them Casinos and their getaway cars would be these two...obviously wwith scotch in hand and cigar in mouth. Swing, baby! 18-Karat rides!

Well...good luck in your mid term tomorrow Suave... The only math Ill be concentration soon is: A field goal = 3 points A touch down = 6 points The extra kick if succesful = 1 point Therefore 6 + 1 = 7 points for a successful touch down! LETS GET READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!! And good luck to you Suave!!!

Just like the movies, eh? And THAT would be Canadiana from me since we are into making fun of cultural identities...

OCN's Amish paradise... Ive got another hour to go before Kickoff. So...I youtubed Amish Paradise just to listen to the song again... :roflmao:

Québec WAS a leader in this highway infrastructure recharging thing only to step off the gas pedal 2-3 years ago... However, last year, Québec announce billions of dollars in rebooting the electrical charging grid. I forget how many electric cars the Québec government is pushing for y 2020, and its a lot... Plus...Québec has signed deals with the Province of Ontario to share the costs for the electrical charging infrastructure with Tesla so you could include Ontario and Québec along with the North American West coast. I dont feel like posting proof of what I said with links, too lazy, and if someone requires evidence, just ask me...Ill provide...Google is one small step to achieve the proof... So yeah...electrification of our roadways is more than on its way, its already here and only getting bigger... Think about how long it took to acheve gas staions at every city corner... Well, it will take less time to achieve electric charge stations at every single corner. Because in Québec, there is also another way to charge an EV... Grocery stores and restaurants and hospitals and the like all have partnered up with Hydro-Québec to install charging stations for their clients... The city of Montréal is already putting charge stations with their parking meters...that would be part of the billion dollar investment I talked about... I bet you Los Angeles already has that in their city, but at least we are pro-active as well...

Or yeah, Like Suave mentioned, a Mazda Tribute or Ford Escape. Two great vehicles which are basically the same thing and no issues. Well... that Im aware of anyway.

Is it official though,Balthy? That the Vue used Honda's 5 speed transmission... And if it indeed was Honda's unit, was it as problematic as it was in Acura TLs and Honda Accords and Honda Odysseys? And did the Saturn Vue's transmission with that Honda V6 actually have issues... Just questions that need answers because you might be missing out on a very good vehicle. I just wanted to shed a light on the transmission issue because I am not sure myself, so I wanted you to be aware of potential problems. But these potential problems may not exist with a Honda sourced Saturn Vue V6. These issues are very real for Honda's vehicles though...

I found a Car&Driver article saying that its one engine....for both V6 regular Vue and for Red Line Vue. http://www.caranddriver.com/news/the-shock-of-a-hondafied-vue-car-news

Why Hyper? You dont have a sense of humor? Are you that into yourself that you cant laugh a little? Block me all you want...I aint NEVER going away!!! And the more you resist me, the more Ill bug you, until you remove that stick out of your

The motor might run forever, but did the Saturn Vue Redline come with Honda's 5 speed automatic? Because I know that thr Vue Redline did in fact have a 5 speed auto...and if its Honda's unit, that automatic had issues staying intact...so while the motor might be flawless, expensive repairs to the transmission will be made...

On a MOPAR kick. In a restomod pro-touring kinda way.

Several posters from Cheers and Gears called this car vapor ware.... I think even Peter De Lorenzo called it vapor ware also. And now I believe them!
