  1. well, he doesn't seem to me to be a 'big' man anyways.........
  2. that last ones scares me
  3. MMMMMMMMMMMM, maybe it will be a SCION this time? A nice qute, hopped up Xb......
  4. clearly you don't ever read my posts. You would recall that about a year ago, i agreed to lease a Quest, and then as she was arranging the paperwork, the chick (internet manager) said Nissan had stopped sale of new quests due to safety recall on the middle row seats. You would also know that I have test driven odysseys, sedonas and siennas. I even had a great deal offered on a Sienna I turned down because it was dull. The only reaosn I have my 500 is because the Quest lease I agreed to fell through because they couldn't deliver the new Quest for a month. As far as the uplander, here in the US I will bet you the Toyota leases much cheaper. In fact, the deal that was offered to me on an LE 7 passenger was around 370/month for 18k miles and 1k down. The Quest lease I agreed to was around 340/month for 18k and 2k down. She then offered me the base maxima w/ stick for the same range (even though they would have to go outstate to locate one) after the seat recall debacle, but my Ford dealer set up a deal on the 500 lease that allowed me to get the loaded limited for the same price as the Quest van. Considering leases on Grand Prixs at the time I shopped were 100 bucks a month more than the limited 500 i got, for only an SE grand Prix with a sub 25 sticker there was no reason to believe that an Uplander in the 28-30 range with less resale than the GP would even come within 150 bucks of the Sienna.......and then to top it off I would not want to even spend a dime on an Uplander. Reasons? ugly, pushrods, 4 speed, lousy seat utility, lacks space, I could go on and on. At least here in the US, the Sienna holds it lease structures very well to steal those who lease DCX vans and want to upgrade etc. So they have to keep the prices low to move the metal. Although it still is far cheaper to lease a DCX van, at least the DCX van is desirable from a functional standpoint and doesn't offend with its looks. You get the DCX and justify it. But not the CSV's. If you BUY a Sienna, then you really do get bent over. You're better off in a DCX van. The DCX at least has stow and go and decent styling. The Uplander cannot compete with the DCX vans in price, space, or seating utility either.
  5. LOL, funny but true. I would love a new 07 Altima 6 speed manual for weekend crusing though! i can see why the impala would not get a stick, but i think the Malibu could stand to have a stick. either a cheap turbo 4 w/ stick or a v6 stick. but since the G6 has a stick, that's ok. DSG is the way of the future. I think i could live with that although i do like clutch pedals and the feedback you get through them.
  6. so what would look better, a hacked and stretched DTS or would a photochop actually look better (end product)? maybe this is a way for Caddy to chintz out and not build the sixteen, but still have a flagship. that's what the contorted michigan minds would think I bet.
  7. its hard to lube up fleece
  8. so even if you can get the GM vans cheaper than the toyota, if you hate driving them, its money you hated spending and that does not make a happy customer. plus the toyota residuals are much better than the GM vans so they probably lease cheaper than the GM vans.
  9. siemens
  10. LMAO! well, the list obviously doesn't include your mom. How else do you think she found out you wanted a Ford T shirt for xmas? Just in case there are still some of you who don't know, the whole thing is a bit. But its a fun one, so i go with it. Hey, here's an idea, let's turn this one into a gay vs. straight thread!
  11. love the accent lighting for the hazzard button! now that's class! KIA GO HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
  12. i am a minivan proponent and almost bought one and i can tell you from the uplanders dysfunctional seating (lame ass thrid row) and horrible cabin alone the sienna is worth the extra money. i've been in plenty of uplanderterrazamontanarelays, they are always used as dealer shuttles by my pont. dealer. hey fly, that uplander is sexy. don't you see all the chicks pulling up to the bar with them whne they go out clubbing? my aztek is far better looking than that uplander, even if its the same vehicle
  13. yeah but if you can't stand sitting or riding in the uplander, and its seating isn't as useful, and it isn't as spacious, and its engine is woefully deficient, then you're foolish to waste money on the inferior product you would be unhappy with when for a bit more money you would get something that better suits your needs and you WOULD be happy with it. with an uplander you'd end up with big time buyer's remorse.
  14. um, not no more, and maybe if y'all DROVE it, you'd like it. what is it with people not wanting to go out and test for themselves? arg. that aggravates me. DON'T GET THE KIA and the Honda is not that good either. If the Nissan is avante garde, the Honda is just plain bad.
  15. blasphemy! toyota is an American company!
  16. chick in red is quite nice. the cars, not so much
  17. edmunds bought a new 07 chevy pickup just to do a test.
  18. think of it this way. the complex mind figured out how to skin the cat once in a masterful way, instead of repetitively having to do it over and over again the 'simple' way. fud4thot
  19. ok, gm, how about a REAL TRUNK? perhaps you should design the suspension and convertible top next time to allow space for a grocery bag.
  20. well, she did look rather mannish, BASIL.......
  21. its amazing how she cleans up. in the pic above she looks fat and disgusting, even if she is prego.
