Just bought...
Congrats on the truck. We need pics. Doesn't the Z71 off road package come with 18" wheels? Atleast that is what I configured on the Silverado.

Spied: Cadillac SRX-V?
I think SRX should live on. It is a worthy mobile given its not so tall stance and a competent chasis. GM just does not get it. If they had used the killing the least selling products. Cavalier would have got a replacement in less than 23 years. It seems like two extremes. Beat a mare to death which was a miling cow in the past or kill the infant which GM thinks is impotent either ways it puts the sales down. I really want to see at what rate GM keeps these current products fresh.

Analysts Scoff At Chrysler Spin-off
Weren't those the same "Anal-ysts" who predicted GM to die by the end of 2006 and Toy to surpass GM as #1 automakers by the end of 2005? My point is those people are number junkies who do not know the inside of the company and its day to day handling. I think Chrysler spinoff is a great idea. Chrysler has a lot less to worry than GM regarding liabilities and different brands. All it needs is the focus on good products, leveheaded marketing and a sound tag-line. It will far easier to steer the Chrysler ship than SS GM which is showing sighns of coming out of troubled waters.

600 HP Vette announced
THE CAR IS CHEVROLET CORVETTE OR CHEVY VETTE There is more fun of whooping a Ferrari with a "Chevrolet" Corvette than just a Corvette. That car is still a crowd puller into the chevy dealer and whatever leverage chevy has to its history. I know Camaro is coming down the road, but Vette is the Flagship of Chevy brand and it should be.

Satty, That book is not even on sale. Pathetic!

Maserati's New GT Coupe
The rear 3/4 looks awesome. I agree with Bobo that the front gives a vibe of an S2000.

Revealed: Audi A5 and S5
The interior looks picked straight up from the A8. Exterior greenhouse looks charming but the front is too trivial.

DCX seeks sale of Chrysler to...GM?
Diamler and Kirky boy screwed Chrysler big time. Chyrsler was better off before the "merger". The only good thing which came was the LX platform which was essentially the old E class revitalized. Everything else has been a failure. The interiors are shabby. The new vehicles like the Jeep Compass and Chrysler Aspen were total lack of imaginations. I mean come on guys, don't build a vehicle for the sake of "expanding the line up". They discontinued the sedan called Neon and built the caliber with no sedan potential? They should know better, that no matter what they want to bring as a new type of vehicle body in to US sedan should always be a forebearer. Is it not why Jetta is here in the US? Mazda was smart to bring the 3 in Hatchback AND sedan version. It felt like everything Diamler did was screwing up Chrysler. They jumped into the foray of employee discounts in 05 and in 06 when they did it again no one cared a squat. I wish Chrysler can stand on its feet again. Let it be a smaller company. Chrysler should attack the foreign brands. Remove the Vans from it. Make all of the vehicles rear or all wheel drives. Dodge should be in competition with Chevy, Toy, and Ford. A full line scale. And let Jeep be the Jeep. Take those lady-boy crossovers off. Bring off road prowess with some good diesels, stickshifts like the Jeeps of the yore. Honestly Chrysler should bring the MC-412 and shove it in Diamler's a$$. Show the Germans like the Vette that their so called sports cars and super cars are overweight, overpriced POS.

GENEVA: 2008 Peugoet 4007 & Citroen C-Crosser
Although I like the only engine being a DIESEL and with 6-speed tranny. That seems a blast to drive.

Kevin Harvick wins Daytona 500
Yeah cuz if they would have had been in the wreck, they would have given excuses. But finishing last is Moving Forward. Anybody noticed where Mr. Columbiana finished? 19th. A good F1 driver!

Sierra vs. Tundra brochure
Good job GM. But the onslaught should be brutal. Let not Toy come back. This should be on the TV with the ending saying --> "They watched us" But at the same time they should not over do it because that may give a big brother bashing a smaller one (in terms of sales here) Ads like these should be subtle and hilarious. Good work GM!
