Taxpayer funded stadiums are the modern day economic trojan horses of the 21st century. They are a joke.

And for the record, being even 6th out 11, makes it "mid pack", not "at or near the bottom".

Yeah, too bad that's #6 out of a class that really only has 11 players in reality. Also, while everyone is throwing the sales figures around, here's a juicy little tidbit that nobody knows or ever hears/talks about- GM counts their service loaners as monthly sales. In other words, they're inflated. That's 6 out of 13 in reality. Why you would exclude the Subaru and the Mazda is beyond me, other than the fact that you are saying it like that to support your point, which is a bit muddled at best Frisky. Sorry. Lol, I am counting the Subaru and Mazda. 1)Toyota Camry 2)Honda Accord 3)Nissan Altima 4)Ford Fusion 5)Hyundai Sonata 6)Chevy Malibu 7)Chrysler 200 8)Kia Optima 9)VW Passat 10)Mazda 6 11)Subaru Legacy What on earth is so hard to understand about this? LOL yourself. I am counting BOTH Subarus. NO need to get pissy about it because of your beef with someone else. You want to look at it one way and I'm going to look at it another.

I'm just going to say this about the "bottom of the barrel". It is #6 for the year so far too.

No base model mid size car starts at 200 HP. Which is why the Malibu should have. It would be #1. It's going to be 300 lbs. lighter. That's a much bigger deal than some extra HP.
-
This discussion would go a lot further if people would just stop passing off their feelings as fact. Wait until the car comes out and is test driven. Then state your feelings. This is one thing I hate about upcoming cars. They bring out all these feelings and speculations that really mean diddly squat, in the grand scheme of things.

From the side, all I see is a shorter version of this...

You have to consider that it is also much lighter than the outgoing model (by 200lbs. if I'm not mistaken) so I don't think the power "loss" will be a big deal at all. As far as sales, they will mostly certainly pick up. How much, is anyone's guess.

Actually, you read that wrong. Instead, you were one of the two who voted to NOT show past history with voting habits. See kids! Reading comprehension can be fun AND educational!

migration... yeah...its almost that sad time of the year around here where the birds fly south... But...Football and Hockey season is almost here...and THAT alone is worth the leaves changing colour, the ghosts and goblins asking for candy and the birds leaving for a warmer climate. Don't forget half of your fellow Canadians migrating to my neck of the woods (Phoenix, AZ) over the next month or so. Makes the "wonderful" traffic here that much more fun. From what part of Canada? Because Quebecois go to Florida starting from November. True. We get mostly the Alberta, Manitoba, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan snowbirds but I have seen some Quebec tags up and down the I-10 here. Haven't done Barrett Jackson yet. It is pricey as hell and up until a few weeks ago, I never had weekends off to go to it anyway. May try for it next year though if I can convince my bossman to hook me up on a few tickets. If I go, I going to need a bib to hold back the constant drooling that will take place.
-
That's been my point for a while but honestly, after some time to think on it, I would say just leave it as it is. Revealing names will just start a s*** storm which would ruin an otherwise great site.

Cadillac News: Cadillac Announces XT5 Crossover To Debut At Dubai
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in Cadillac
Insert keyword "available", end of discussion. Oh and Cadillac is planning on a V series Escalade, so there goes another asinine assumption of yours out the window.- 54 replies

Cadillac News: Cadillac Announces XT5 Crossover To Debut At Dubai
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in Cadillac
Of course a car enthusiast publication would say that. That does not change the fact that MB will have more FWD vehicles down the pipeline and that your average buyer doesn't care about the FWD vs. RWD, unless you live in snow country of course. Guess which one sells more there? Hint, it's not RWD cars.- 54 replies

Cadillac News: Cadillac Announces XT5 Crossover To Debut At Dubai
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in Cadillac
Its still a Mercedes with FWD, making your post just pure trolling. Think it will be the last FWD Mercedes? Not likely in this day and age. Mark my words.- 54 replies

Autoextremist Drives CTS. Autoextremist Likes CTS.
surreal1272 replied to El Kabong's topic in Industry News
Honestly, this just shows me that the CTS is on the right track. When writers are left to quibble about purely the subjective stuff, then Cadillac must be doing something right. -

No PR fluff? Well crap Bong! That is just useless! -
Funny, during the "Got a Hemi" ads, I don't seem to recall molar fanboys constantly posting Mopar and Hemi PR articles to show their allegiance and constantly shove down other posters throats, whether they wanted to see it or not. That is a CLEAR difference between fretting about some ads and fretting about someone's non-stop PR push. Clear difference.

So yeah...You're just a basher who has double standard. Thread after thread, and ones that have no relation to Ford, you somehow try to deflect and bash Ford, while remain mum on FCA that your whining over Ford for. I've never seen someone so desperate to bash and be negative. You really didn't read a thing he said did you?
