Chevy Cruze pricing, options, packaging
Still encouraging to hear... this may be the vehicle I buy myself as a graduation present in a couple years. Since the LTZ is going to be low-volume It's going to be tricky to find one as a leftover, or year old vehicle, which is how I'd be buying it, that kind of sucks. Ideally I'd like to see in mine: -LTZ or 2LT -Dark Red or Dark Blue Exterior -Black/Two Tone interior with cloth or leather -No sunroof -17 inch alloys -No Spoiler -Nav/Bluetooth/USB/XM/OnStar -Rainsense would be nice.

Companion Question
My Cavalier's seats bar none. After over 30mins of driving at a time I would get a numb spot in the lower back.

My Impala... but the Front seats and captains chairs in our 2005 Venture were not bad either.

Cloth interior, as an option, for Cadillac?
I'd like to see it as an option but at the end of the day the Ventilated seats in the DTS and Lucerne were just fine on the hot summer days we had rented them.

I think I've lost my GD mind.......
I have the EXACT same problem in my Cobalt and the same thing was going on in my G5.

I think I've lost my GD mind.......
The Cobalt does have $h! power windows that's for sure. This is something I've noticed go down in quality in recent years in GM Vehicles. My buddy's old 1996 Olds 88 has nicer working power windows than my own Impala or even the 2008 DTS I drove last summer.

Considering I have a high school diploma, I know that can't possibly be the case.

Best Evar!
If I get the tires up to 34PSI I can get 43-45 hwy in the Cobalt on flat land.

Panther Blues
My Cavalier was of similar vintage to your Camaro and I bet it had a similar fuel pump too. Towards the end the gas gauge wasn't working very well at all... it was doing all sorts of weird $h! including that. Eventually it just stopped working altogether- got in the car after school and started driving home one day- Gas gauge went to full when I started the car (tank was 3/4 full) and over the next five minutes the gas gauge cruised from "F" right over to "E" then back from "E" to "F", back and forth back and forth until I got home. Turned off the car, turned it back on again and the thing was pegged at "F" where it remained for the duration of the time I owned the car.

not very surprising
Any list that puts the Escalade amongst the worst cars on the market is so blatantly on crack it doesn't even warrant discussion... not that the ignorant masses (such as yourself) won't continue to use it as pablum for your (sadly) misled opinions. Within my immediate family we've had exactly 11 GM products since 1994, none of which have been Buicks, none of which have been anything that approaches what the media makes GM products out to be. Your Logic (with editors note): Too bad that DTS is such a piece of crap (oh wait it's a Lucerne) Too bad that Traverse is such a piece of crap (oh wait it's an Enclave) While you're at it look at the JD Power reliability survey and tell me what car is the most reliable car on the road according to them- I'll give you a hint *cough*Cadillac DTS*cough Your argument fails at life.

The Curse and other assorted musings
Trunk lid is fine but since I was stopped when he hit me I want the wheel alignment checked... also the impact must have loosened something because immediately afterward two door panels and the dash pad area are rattling when they hadn't before (still under warranty until end of June so no big deal). I honestly expected more damage than there was since the impact was pretty hard (must have been going about 20-25kph when he hit me). That being said I'm lucky enough to not have a sore neck, the only 'injury' if you could call it that is sore muscles in my left arm which must have been hyper-extended since I never let go of the steering wheel in the whole impact. For those wondering, this is where it happened: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=51.06876,-114.128828&spn=0,0.002411&t=h&z=19&layer=c&cbll=51.068798,-114.128921&panoid=_7ymT6TQWdhhiBiadOJbrg&cbp=12,166.08,,0,0.34 @ Ocn I already had the dealership appraise it and they quoted me a price of about 1350$ CDN preliminarily for the repair, does that sound in the ballpark? Doesn't really matter since the other guy's insurance is paying for it, just curious.

The Curse and other assorted musings
Today I too was the victim of the C&G Curse. Rear ended by a Toyota Camry taxicab (I guess you can only talk sh!t about Toyota so long without one of them coming to get you). I'm in my car sitting at a stoplight when I feel a huge bump and look in my mirror to see a cab has run into me. Driver was drinking from a water bottle and dropped it approaching the stoplight... The water bottle was pinned behind his brake pedal and he said he couldn't stop. I'll post some pics of the damage but suffice to say the whole bloody bumper needs to be replaced (FML).

What car was hot
- Question for Roger and his Envoy
One of the things bragged about in the Sales literature for the Venture/Silhouette/Montana was that it was able to carry a 4x8 sheet of plywood flat in the back. That was mentioned in every brochure I saw for those vehicles, esp. when we leased our three in 1999, 2002 and 2005.- Brother's New Ride.
Those seats could use a good steam cleaning...- APRIL CAR SPOTTERS EASTER BASKET
Didn't take long for the F3 Camaro's traditional owners to hear that a new model had been released, did it?- A small muscle car based on the Chevy Colorado
I've conjectured to myself about taking a GMT-900 frame, lowering it and putting a Cadillac Sixteen body on it... this is much in the same spirit- maybe it would work.- Buried Buick a punch line in waiting
Considering the circumstances that Buick is CHERRY.- Tourretsguy.com

Believe it or not I saw the same car in Mesa at Christmastime...- Lambs & Lions, Rams & Peugeots
That navy blue on the Camaro really suits it... Today I saw two different new LaCrosses with stupid looking custom wheels... People have no taste!! - Question for Roger and his Envoy
