Intrepidation

I agree, a bland Chrsyler...but witha nicer interior.

Yeah, see the rear windows are different..although I still liked the greenhouse of the original Tribeca the most. However the cleaned up rear end and nose make it look much better if less distinctive. But yeah, the did indeed use a lot of the 9-6x for inspiration. On another note, I wish the 9-4x looked more like this:

I need to replace my phone at some point. The thing kills the battery from a full charge in no more than 6 hours. i think part of it is because the backlight won't always turn off when the phone is closed. I can get a really good discount on a replacement if I "loose it".

Happy Birthday!

Lazy. They bitch if they get no product to build and bitch if they have to work more on a a product that sells well.

I think Enclave/Traverse/Acadia would be fine...since they well differentiated and the Acadia and Enclave don't share showroom space, and therefore wouldn't really compete with each other. I think a better comparison would be: VS

That's odd. Can't help sorry, I never text. Have you tried contacting AT&T about it?

I'm glad that enzl puts up with the blind loyalty and continues to post meaningful, well thought out arguments that balance out some of the more radical "Let's defend GM at all costs, they have never done anything wrong, it's everyone else's fault gallery" While it can be pointed out that there are some levels of bias against Detroit, and some of it is indeed unfair and unnecessary, the fact of that matter is that the biggest problems they face are of their own doing. Most recent example: instead of investing money and R&D into small and midsize cars and trucks and SUVs, they invested mostly on the latter. Now that $4 gas has everyone in a panic for small cars, the Big 3 are caught flat on their asses. I mean, what do you they have to offer for small cars? The Cobalt? Caliber? Aveo? Focus? These pretty mediocre products are selling now because they are cheap and relatively good on gas, but with the exception of the SS, SRT4 and SYNC!!11, have little in the way of desirability. They are products that remind you that you made a sacrifice, instead of merely downsizing to something that's still nice and is good on gas. Thing is though, and this is key, Mulally has made sweeping changes within Ford, and is making decisive decisions which may yet save the company, while GM continues to sit with its thumb up its butt, wondering what it should do. The company is like a chicken running around with it's head cut off, and who knows what's going on at Chrysler. The first key is to admit you screwed up. The second key is to actually fix it. FWD Caddies, too many similar vehicles that compete with each other, and killing platforms and thereby wastes precious money is not fixing the problem. Also take into account that enzl isn't a GM hater or basher, if he did it would be "OMG GM sucks, Toyota rules, etc." He's critical to it because he wants it to succeed and it gets frustrating when it shoots itself in the foot, taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back. That's my little speech.

True, although the rear window is different on the Tribeca than the 9-6x, so that still required a fair bit of retooling, since the shape of the quarter panel had to be changed.

IS this the same girl you said you never felt that way about last time or a different one?

You know...Chrysler has been trying to find a partner for a small car. Which is fine, but while they were busy searching you'd think someone in the comany would stop and think: "Hey, we have a compact platform that the Caliber runs on, why not make a sedan out of it?"

All I have to say is wow. It looks really good,and not "good for a Kia" I mean good compared to the entire class. Looks like Kia built a better (looking) Civic. It reminds me of the TSX a bit too. Still, there are unique takes on the design cues, and the overall package looks better looking than the upcoming Cobalt (from what we've seen so far). Proportions are very good too.

Only 2 best EVARS

Interior added...not as clean and finished as the exterior but oh well.

WTF? @ carman21

Wow, that's some horrid numbers. It's interesting that the Viper and Caravan are up...but that's about it.

Need to do the interior still...

Just because Honda can't do it doesn't mean it can't be done. Ok, name one BOF SUV that handles better and is more effecient than a comparable CUV. I don't know if it exists or not, but I'd like to know, and I'm "working" now so I can't look it up. Also, you realize that a huge nunmber of truck buyers (before $4 gas) rarely maxed out the capablities of their trucks. These are the kind of people who would take a look at something like that.

Yes but let's kill Pontiac anyway

The horror.

I'd like to know how a pickup based on a unibody architecture which would ne lighter, handle better, and be more fuel effecient than the BOF trucks is "no longer a viable option" in these days of high gas prices.

Have you sat in a Lancer? GM wishes the Cobalt had an interior that nice.
