  1. anything to get the ridgeline off the face of the earth
  2. "retirement benefits, health care, and the union" all things that have no contribution to the finished product for the consumer. not saying that this means we need to eliminate those sorts of things, just saying that this is the obstacle to success in many ways
  3. no, no...YOU will, cuz you already got yours! and its a few ponies short under the clamshell! LOL
  4. got me! I didn't look at the picture close enough! egg........
  5. HOT! Yellow Pursuit with 260hp ecotec turbo? awww, but its FWD sirry, but that pursuit looks hot
  6. the dashtop is all one big unbroken blob. i sure hope they get decent graining and the plastic doesn't look cheap and that it has decent dimensional accuracy. Why no parcel shelf on the dash like the Murano? i recall this thing having a strange relationship of the steering wheel angle to the dash, so it will be interesting to see if those guages are actually readable under that steering wheel. Don't get your shorts excited folks, it still has the same unbolstered seats, the same CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP door panels and ceiling trim, the same dismal carpet no doubt, and no real enhancement to bring the usability and versatility of the seating into par with the Toyota or the Chrysler. No split fold 3rd row, and you still have to completely remove the headrests to fold it into the floor. They didn't bother to move the shifter down into a nice Sienna like position. They only added the absolutely needed flip tray between the front seats like 3 years after debut. Again, its an improvement, but CARLOS THE TIGHTWAD didn't go far enough as usual. any Ipod or mp3 jacks?
  7. i said yes to one back in october, and then they said, 'we can't sell you one because of the recall' then i reconsidered, and it was mostly due to the GODAWFUL dash. I thought, 'I will wait to get a van until the revised interior comes to market'. thing is, this is a HALF ASSED revision. the seats are the same, as are door panels, and climate controls and weird shifter location. Moving the gauges helps though. Adding the flip tray helps too. i sure hope they moved the DVD player and fixed the odd radio too. I dunno, had this interior been in place on 10/23/05 it would have been 'flip a coin' as to whether to wait for the recall to be completed or pass. Honestly I don't think they went far enough but at the same time it might be just a just enough to get some buyers back....i dunno. It needed to surpass the Sienna and Odyssey inside and it still doesn't do that, so it still is gonna get ripped and deservedly so. and hey, still no split third row. Nissan is getting as bad as GM at half assing it. CARLOS the TIGHT ASS. Folks will still buy Siennas and Odysseys and this doesn't make many reconsider that position. i like the exterior revisions, but those too could have done more.
  8. HELP HELP THE SKY IS FALLING IT's PEARL HARBOR OH MY GOD ITS 9/11 OH DEAR LEO CAN'T FIND KATE CARROT TOP JUST SHOWED UP FOR DINNER Jesus, i am so fking sick of all these doomsday articles.
  9. the interior ain't pretty either! ....... typically DCX BAD/CHEAP hollywood extra NASTY!!!!
  10. i think the eclipse v6 did 0-60 in 5.6 seconds in C/D. So the convertible will be a bit higher. The G6 base w/ 3.5 did 7.9 in C/D. I don't know if there will be a GTP convertible.
  11. maybe the UAW actually would prefer Toyota stay out of Michigan, so as not to erode the union base there?
  12. "Our union in Japan helps us solve our problems," Cole quoted the Toyota official as saying.
  13. um, they just trumped the GXP's ECOTEC. that lasted all of about 3 weeks or so. INSANE...now i might want one!
  14. good luck considering how mediocre the design is, especially the interior
  15. great. the potential for onstar is limitless. I think this is a great asset to GM. they should push the envelop in vehicle delivered entertainment as well (movies, tv, video games, radio)
  16. you didn't HURL?
  17. there's not enough fresh product to advertise
  18. a huge part of the reason toyota is gaining sales so much is the direct and indirect result of their hybrid offerings and the image it represents. so obviously they have struck a chord with consumers. and each and every day GM is caught with its pants down on that puts them deeper in the hole.
  19. good show, but too short. ted at halftime, that wud have bin cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. nesbitt? i hope its no PT/HHR saab
  21. my dad looked at a lucerne for my mom this weekend. she liked the lucerne, but said it's 'still only a buick'. so they aren't gonna fork out the dough for that. but maybe he'd go for this!
  22. i saw a new tahoe interior at the dealer this weekend. i like the dash design, but i was not at all impressed with the seat cloth, or the door panels or the plastics quality in general. it was the light gray color. keep trying GM
  23. that site needs a serious visual upgrade. it looks pretty 'underfunded'
  24. sheryl crow is one hot MILF. except she's not a mom. but any woman who grows a tree or operates a tower crane for me like that deserves the title of SUPERMILF. plus, she's musical. i bet lance is a drink of cool water for the ladies and sum of the guys as well. why have we not got the scoop from LANCE ARMSTRONG'S TESTICLES YET?
  25. i like the exterior but the interior is typical DCX cheap. and horrible.
