    Yeah, screw the D3 in this regard. If you make a better product you'll do fine and put them out. This only shows me the D3 are a bunch of babies afraid to make a great product.

    I think this would actually be a huge hit. They would have to make it very very retro though. If nothing else it would be way cool of them..lol

    To be honest, I'm not even sure how to approach them. I found their email address. Now I'm not exactly sure what to say. lol

    I wish I had hopes for getting them In 2017 here.

    All this discussion between the Bolt and Model 3.. All I know is the Bolt looks like a lame piece of sh!t in comparison. It might perform magically(and it sounds like it is) but it looks terrible in comparison.
  6. ccap41
    The only difference between the 3 and Bolt are FWD vs RWD, right? Why can't they be compared? If one metric difference is key why would you compare a 100mile range car to a 240 range car? Right now they are all in their own leagues, for the most part. They have to be to carve our their own niche as to not even have a competitor and own the segment.

    Not the same thing at all. One was done unintentionally. They thought they made the product to do it's intended purpose and it turns out that it is failing and the other was completely intentionally frauding customers, shareholders, and everybody else for that matter who breaths. Their vehicles were specifically designed to circumvent the law. And we will never know how many people die or get ill from too much exhaust fumes being pumped into the air but to think it is zero is being pretty oblivious for how many vehicles are on the road(VW diesels that is).

    Hey guys, I have a buddy of mine who's typically a Chevy guy but he came across a 2012 F150 XLT EcoBoost. What I'm really looking for is are they reliable... I know it's kind of a loaded question but it's a little difficult to get some answers when Googling it because most that have 150,000 trouble free miles aren't the ones online posting about how reliable their truck is. The ones posting are the ones with premature issues. So, does anybody have any first hand or friends/family have first hand with any of that generation 3.5 EcoBoosts that have issues relating to the engine. AND/OR anybody that has put a lot of miles on their truck without issues. The truck in question has 69,000 miles and according to the site(local dealer) it has been maintained every 5000 miles at that dealer. Heck, I'll just post the link to the truck. http://triford.com/Highland-IL/For-Sale/Used/Ford/F-150/2012-XLT-Red-Truck/49186248/

    That entire platform has sold less than the mustang last I looked. So while it gets spread out it still sells less units.

    Thanks for the review, Frisky! Nice read. I'll have to see if one of these comes to my local dealer and see if my buddy will let me take it for a spin.

    A friend on another site(facebook) son just bought a 2016 or 2017 1SS with 10k off sticker, walked out for only 28k. Freakin' great deal!
  12. ccap41
    I actually thought the same thing. I was uber disappointed when I read it has the 1.8T.
  13. ccap41
    I just know that 240 miles of range is plenty for probably 99.5% of us. When I'm on my own and/or done with school and have my own garage I guarantee I will have something electric in there. I'd have to do some research and number crunching but the Volt is insanely enticing. At least until there is a sufficient charging network in the area. Right now it's basically home or nowhere. Which, at 240 miles shouldn't be an issue unless I'm traveling to see my sister or vacationing.
  14. ccap41
    Oh that isn't too bad then. It sounds like they're all doing it right then.

    What else is shared with the mid size sedans like the Fusion, Malibu, Camry, Accord? Are they all only used for those cars? Are there any of the 16 cars in the class sharing their platform with anything else? Because if so, they should definitely work on new platforms to be utilized for crossovers AND cars. Seems like a lot of money to be saved in the long run with a platform like that.

    Doesn't really bother me any. I wouldn't buy a 2 door hatch anyway.
  17. ccap41
    I think the AMG GT is gorgeous but the 'vert form looks terrible to me. It does not do the coupe version justice.
  18. ccap41
    I think this part is where things will become too costly for a business standpoint. They definitely cannot do this at all dealerships as not all Chevy dealerships are 1) Cadillac dealers so you will not get the level of treatment you're talking about(that I agree with) and 2) They aren't all large enough to even partition off a part of the showroom for something like this without rebuilding the entire building. Everything else you said I pretty much agree with 100%.

    Haha no problem! ..probably because it was surprisingly low on the lap time..

    Ehhhh Camaro doesn't look the greatest to me, I'm over the Viper.. Just better all around cars for the money, imo. It's a monster track car but it sucks at anything else. But I do love Cadillac and Mustangs! Did you watch any of the lightning lap videos? The Grand Sport looked like you could do almost anything with it and it would just stick.
  22. ccap41
    The V6 1LE actually didn't even sound too bad either.. Grand Sport, GT350R, and 1LEs are just monsters in their respective classes. US really had a great showing.
  23. ccap41
    "Birds vaporized by Ferraris: 1" - Hahaha best thing read in the article! 1LE in any form is one badass track-ready car. Period. Little Focus RS on the heels of the 707hp Charger is pretty cool. Grand Sport punches waaaay above it's weight class on a race track. It finished basically door to door with the baddest of the bad 911's. GT350R put a surprising hurting on the M4 GTS. By the ways of 1.1 seconds. 130k track-ready M4 bested by a Ford at it's own game. V6 1LE bested a 2011 GT500, 2015 Mustang GT, 2009 CTS-V, 2011 CTS-V Coupe, 2007 R8, 2008-9 M3, 2006 Vette Z51, and the list of impressive cars it put the smack down on goes on... Alpha:1 World: 0 ...I still don't care about the Viper...

    Good, be picky about where you get your tint. If it gets screwed up it's a pain to either get places to fix, schedule another appointment, or even find a second place to fix it.
  25. ccap41
    Absolutely. The only times I drive more than 200 miles in a day are visiting my sister which I just looked up my address to hers and it's 335 miles. So I would definitely need a charge up in the middle somewhere. Other than that even a 100 mile day is pretty rare for me. With that said.. Having a 100 mile day being rare a Volt fits in there pretty well because MOST of my driving daily is only about 20-25 miles mon-fri and usually more on the weekends.
