Recession is good, it shakes up the economy and causes new ideas to forge and spring up the economy again. It is like a mini revolution.

No tuner will be touching that engine bay for a while.

As to that, the reason why GM vehicles in general are heavy, I quizzed it to none other than Jim Taylor at the South Florida Auto Show. He said that GM does not use high strength aluminum and steel to keep the weight down like the Germans do, thus the weight gain. This is concurrent to what I posted earlier. Cadillac's Weight And regarding the CTS, he says it is a 5-series "sized" car and features priced at 3-series sized car. But he did not divulge if it will have a bread and butter V-8 standard on it like the 550i. Yeah, at least they should make the BRX full time AWD like the Acuras. I understand having a common platform for all the vehicles. But I think it is a step backward for Caddy.

She will fly off and live on Mount Everest.

I hope GM does not abandon this small truck and UTE market. Things are not looking too bright for those in the near future.

OK I guess.

Chevrolet Vapor the Pickup Truck

Look mostly at the Detroit 08 Autoshow with the sales starting within a few months.

I discussed this in the SEMA Cobalt SS release. Theoritically we should see an increase in the mileage for the following reasons: 1. DI is more efficient the the regular 2.0 used in the supercharged SS. 2. The DI turbo gives better gas mileage in the Kappas than the 2.4 ecotec, although the final gear ratio for the DI version is lower than the ecotec. Assuming the same for the Cobalt we can see a couple of mpg jump in the highway mileage compared to the 2.4L. 3. Generally turbocharger is more fuel efficient than supercharger.

Wait another couple of months.

I talked to Fly on the way to Miami about this, and he said that he will take care with the host. Is the search based on Windows 95?

Which means, if we get invite to LA autoshow, nobody will be going. Detroit, here we come!

Ummm 72% of the Earth's surface is made of err WATER? Like Griffon said, using clean water is not a requirement.

Mr. Troy Clarke - President of GM NA and Fly Da-Man! ---- And the Escalade Platinum ESV

Which means dropping the Turds off from B52's on their Factory in Japan?

No it was there only for the show car. The other one which was in black on the floor did not have it.

Here are the pictures of the official unveiling of GMT 900 Cadillac Escalade ESV, Platinum Edition. More to come.

Guys, Here are the hands on photographs of official unveiling of the Cadillac Escalade HYBRID, taken by Fly and myself. More exciting comments and some thoughtful hints about the future GM products, and hands on photographs of other products coming on later, PLEASE STAY TUNED. Our special Thanks to all the GM employees and their Marketing team to give us this opportunity and we hope that we will have these previliges in the future. Enjoy!

Now if they only had a orifice there before the front end of the seat, things would have made perfect pleasurable sense.

Too much bright wood that looks fake.

They still only gave a **** instead of five.
