    Actually most of the current GM crop outside of the Cruze seems fairly bullet proof.
  2. A Horse With No Name
    Existant
  3. A Horse With No Name
    Oddly enough, i saw a Prowler the other day, Red IIRC.

    Oddly enough, you almost never see VW/Audi recall stuff.
  5. A Horse With No Name
    I hope they can succeed, it was a fantastic car when it was here.
  6. A Horse With No Name
    Not sure what needs to be done.

    In another 5 to 8 years everything will be hybrid and the manual will be dead. Local Honda dealer sales manager said he sold exactly three manual cars all last year other than Civic SI. A premium diesel would just rock in this car.... Pretty much my thoughts as well..

    I have had the same thought. They could probably kill the Malibu and keep the Impala. The Impala is world class and the current Malibu is currently Camry/Altima level at best. Ford did knock it out of the park with the current Fusion, my Ford Touch is probably a big reason I will buy a Civic SI or GTI when I trade the Miata in. But I still lust after the Focus ST.

    As cars get more complex....what else could you have expected?
  10. A Horse With No Name
    Between Toyota and GM.....ugh......

    All this needs is Ohio or PA plates and we are....not so good....

    Hey, when you can hire someone to drive your car....

    Cadillac have always looked good in white for some reason...even the 50's and 60's cars.

    Red 64 Galaxie 500 two door, sweet, rolling north on US 23. Red, yellow, and a very rare factory purple SSR, all out on the streets headed places. A couple of nice old Air cooled Beetles, still looking like they were seeing some regular use.

    Toyota and Honda were once niche players, and to an extent VW group/Audi still is. But VW is at least doing some of the right things to stay here, and Toyota and Honda obviously did the right things to build sales. Volvo, methinks, is going the other way. 2025 might be optimistic.....I see more Teslas on the road than Volvos here in Ohio. Probably because they sell almost zero of the newer ones, and the Ohio tin worm has destroyed most of the older ones.

    I see very few of them here in Ohio, although Equinox does fantastic here. Maybe it is a west coast thing....I recently drove on a 400 mile (one way) trip to North Carolina, I only saw one Encore the whole way down.

    The FJ cruiser shows that Asian engineering is not always better. There are Asian, American, and European cars I love-I get so sick of people saying all American cars are junk, or all German cars are junk, etc. Toyota and Honda have their fair share of issues, as do Mazda and Nissan. Suburu is actually the best quality Asian car maker IMHO, GM is best in North America, and Mercedes Benz is the best European builder. I would say while Toyotas are often reliable, their design, handling, and overall feel of their products really leaves something to be desired. BMW seems to be the most issue prone of the Europeans, while Chryco has been lagging behind in the US since before I was born. Back in 57 Chryco had a horrendous lot of problems with the 57 redesign....relatively speaking, they haven't caught up to Ford and GM since the 50's. ....and can you imagine the embarrassment of Toyota if they had to buy back all fo the FJ cruisers after they bought back a blue million Tacomas with frame issues? Time to buy stock in a company that makes car crushing equipment, for sure.

    Chryco really does not need another failure right now.
  21. A Horse With No Name
    I need to test drive one.
  22. A Horse With No Name
    Just like Mazda did with the Cougar Ace cars.
  23. A Horse With No Name
    They need better marketing. They are rapidly becoming as invisible as Mitsu in this market.

    m.leftlanenews.com/nissan-recalls-2014-leaf-over-missing-welds.html Nissan has issued a recall for a limited number of 2014 Leaf vehicles. Some of the hatchbacks may have left the factory without proper welds on the front structural member assembly, compromising the integrity of the vehicle. The company suggests the defect may not be noticed unless the vehicle is involved in a crash. Engineers believe the missing welds run afoul of federal safety requirements related to occupant crash protection. The problem appears to be limited to Leaf units that were manufactured at Nissan's Smyrna, Tennessee, plant between February 28 and March 12 of this year. Owners will be asked to bring in their vehicles for inspection by Nissan service personnel. If any of six spot welds appear to be missing from the structural member, the entire vehicle will be replaced with a new Leaf. Seems like a little fantasy fulfillment for our small truck loving friend....

    When you consider how much better a base Sonic or Fiesta is than the 500, you realize how far behind the curve Chryco Fiat really is. GM sells more Corvettes in one year than Viper has sold its whole production. Impala is orders of magnitude better than Charger, and even better than 300 in a lot of ways. In my mind, Chryco/Fiat is destined to be the absolute bottom feeder in the automotive world, sucking in every brand they offer other than Jeep.
