  1. Star Trek
  2. Yeah, the earlier Ions had some issues, but the later ones seem to hold up pretty well.......
  3. BUddy's 06 Ion is still going strong at 120k.....
  4. Looks like the mob's version of the Ford Fusion.....
  5. milk
  6. Me too...
  7. Sounds great but many cities are starting to run out of room for cars...commutes for 10-15 miles can take hours in some places....
  8. Don't see it happening....I do much less gas being used as cars will be powered by both gas and voltage... With the population growth currently, more likely will see a rise in public transportation....
  9. Believe it or not, my local Kia dealership used plain old Quakerstate/Pennzoil products in their cars/trucks. Also why you can get an oil change for 14.95 I guess I am sure you could, but you would be changing it much more.....
  10. ringo
  11. All Dexos offers over SN oils is that they clean a very slight bit better, with a slight uptick in being able not to be broken down (or hold up better). That's it....nothing fancy at all. Basically oil made for the turbo'd cars..... And pretty much ANY synthetic can beat the dexos spec anyways......even walmart's house brand synthetic!
  12. Good news is that GM can't do a thing about it if you use another oil. Let's just say I heard it from a little birdy. Most people use synthetic in their cars at this point anyways, with the fact that almost all the oils are dexos certed, so it is kinda hard not to run into one....
  13. Yeah, when my Cobalt has had oil for a while ( I don't put crazy amount of miles on it), it tends to get a bit pissy. It's quite happy with the fresh oil it has now though.....
  14. Good to know it at least has a plot... Might give it a shot....
  15. iphone
  16. Very grown up Volvo here...looks pretty good...
  17. +1 Should get quite interesting now....
  18. Caught an issue with a rotor years ago when I had my s 10.....very true!
  19. Cap, have a feeling you're on BITOG too..... I get slack for running good stuff in cheap and old GM compacts...... I pretty much run nothing but synthetic for mine (usually on sale-mostly either Pennzoil Plat or Quaker State synthetic) Though the last oil change the Cobalt got was dollar quart Kendall Syn Blend (and it liked it too) Actually waiting on the blackstone report for this oil to see how it does against the Pennzoil Ultra in there now..... Also picked up some 0w30 Mobil 1 (10 bucks a jug) to throw in my ol' Cavalier..... My Js get Delco (hengst) filters....feel they do the best. Balt has got a mix...kinda been the test car for filters ( Puros, Wix, Fram TG/Ultra) though I'm just going to keep it simple after I finish my last fram and go Delco with it too....
  20. So driving one of these will tell us how the next Nox and Terrain will be...hmmm.... That said, I am excited to see it....think it will do well...even better is gas prices stay low for a while....
  21. Maybe, but even with lower sales it is pretty much their icon in the US. They need all the good press they can get....thinking quite a few diesel models will get cut though.....
  22. Still see those bad boys around here.....
  23. Thinking they could move it pretty quickly if they set it up right. Same vans that have been built for years.....
  24. G6, Cobalts, Auras are all good choices there....... Spotted a 09 G6 with 38k for 6700 a while back....
  25. wow
