Starting off 2009 With An Automotive Bang
You are the envy of C&G. Sounds like a lot of fun!

RIP G8 ST
Well f**k. Nah it's cool GM, why make something unique in the marketplace when you can be "me too" and sell the same thing everyone else does, who wants something unique. Plus it's not like there's demand for the modern day El Camino by thousands of Camino enthusiasts or anything.

December 2008 Sales: Chrysler LLC
Well, as a Chrsy;er fan, I see plenty of reasons not to kill it. GM won't buy Jeep, they're talking about killing the brands they have not acquiring more. Chrysler hasn't had the time to fix the damage done by the Daimler ownership. The first product that has actually been overseen by Cerberus is the new Ram, and look how that turned out. Oh and the refreshed Compass/Patriot.

They just need to hang in their long enough for their new stuff to come to market. But yeah, this month was not pretty.

GM @ NAIAS '09: 2010 Cadillac SRX
Intrepidation replied to Chris_Doane's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)The current SRX has a wheel base of 116.4 inches. So that would make the new one's 110.9 inches.

GM @ NAIAS '09: 2010 Cadillac SRX
Intrepidation replied to Chris_Doane's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)I'm just going by what the official specs releases are. Insideline also reports that the SRX is 2 inches wider.

Invicta After All?
There's a difference though. Mercury's website has color to help offset the silver and white. Meanwhile dodge uses high-contrast black and white colors with the vehicles in red to add color and attract attention. There's nothing wrong with having the lineup shown the same color, it's how you present it.

Frozen Pizza
Cheap pizza is hard to find, at least when I look. The one time I found a cheap pizza place the pizza was disgusting.

December 2008 Sales: General Motors
It will be a day of reckoning if the Malibu manages to surpass it.

How old is YOUR car in people years?
It's more than a little flawed but cute and fun nonetheless.

I never got why for so long the GMC version was named teh same thing as the Chevy. That's like The Plymouth Neon.

Frozen Pizza
California Pizza Kitchen This stuff is awesome. I wish their was a restaurant somewhere in New England. Their frozen pizzas kicks @$$! AT least the Garlic Chicken one, the only one I've had. Smells great and full of flavor...but the thin crust isn't very filling. Freschetta is very good too. Digiorno has some really good pizzas, especially the stuffed crust ones. Plus, at $5-6 it's hard to beat. Even the small time pizza places charge at least $10.

Invicta After All?
The website's overall design is fine. However it's the details that seem to be missing, as mentioned by Invictaman. Color schemes are good too, but I agree it feels rather monotone. There's no splash of color to attract your eye from all of the shades of white and beige.

I always thought Quadrasteer was an super innovation. Shame it didn't sell well. But who want's their big truck to turn better? That's just silly.

Toyota and Honda post larger drop in Dec sales
Only problem is Chrysler sales fell 53%. Ouch. They were up compared to last month, which counts for something I guess.

Detroit Preview: 2010 Cadillac SRX reborn
Perhaps, but that's a problem if you're stuck in back. If you own and drive the car not so much. Besides, the dimensions are in the ballpark of competitors still, like the RX. This is the current one since I can't find specs on the new model. Front Head Room: 39.3 in. Front Hip Room: 55.6 in. Front Shoulder Room: 57.9 in. Rear Head Room: 38.6 in. Rear Shoulder Room: 57.1 in. Rear Hip Room: 55.1 in. Front Leg Room: 42.5 in. Rear Leg Room: 36.4 in.

Edmunds- 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe - First Drive
That's pretty low. The Caliber SRT4 makes close to 300 from the 2.4L. Then again this is the base model, and I'm sure a bigger turbo would crank up the HP.

Guess what I did
Sixty8, awesome. When I eventually buy a Jeep I'm going to do that every time I need to part in the winter.

Back to the Slog
I work when I feel like it as long as I get it done for the deadline. From my computer. In my home. Currently drinking hot coca. Such is the life of a freelance graphic designer. Of course ocn you probably make way more money than me, I'm still working on building awareness.

Detroit Preview: 2010 Cadillac SRX reborn
I'm not sure I understand how the new one is "markedly" more narrow. Most of the decreases are around an inch, with the exception being rear legroom. So aside from leg room out back, I don't think an inch is going to make a world of difference. 2008 Front Head Room: 40.3 in. 2010 Front Head Room: 39.7 in. 2008 Front Hip Room: 56.3 in. 2010 Front Hip Room: 55.4 in. 2008 Front Shoulder Room: 58.7 in. 2010 Front Shoulder Room: 58.3 in. 2008 Rear Head Room: 38.4 in. 2010 Rear Head Room: 38.4 in. 2008 Rear Shoulder Room: 57.6 in. 2010 Rear Shoulder Room: 56.2 in. 2008 Rear Hip Room: 56.3 in. 2010 Rear Hip Room: 54.7 in. 2008 Front Leg Room: 42.1 in. 2010 Front Leg Room: 41.2 in. 2008 Rear Leg Room: 41 in. 2010 Rear Leg Room: 36.3 in. Also, the wood thing is a matter of taste. I like the restrained use of wood.
