Well it is my duty as an American to crusade against anything that compromises our standard of living.

The nicest CUV in its class, easily. Makes the Cadillac TX4, or whatever it's called, look like the cardboard box the Corsair was shipped in. And take a look at those power figures... this is luxury car power.

Makes sense then that the headrest is a dead pedal for anyone considering such tripe as this.

Ohhhhh... the HUMANITY... it has HIGH MOUNTED TURN SIGNALS! *Passes out thinking about the 2020 Silverado HD*

YUGE reason why electric powertrains will never take the place of V8 power in a car like this.

Buick Encore and Encore GX Debut in Shanghai :Comments
ocnblu replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Auto Shanghai
If they bring the longer Buick and the shorter Chevy, then where does the Granite fit? Which version of the GMC will be built? I do like both Buicks. The shorter Chevy, with its "baby Blazer" face, looks cool to me, I like the windshield situation, it appears relatively flat and steeply raked, sort of SAAB-like. This should make the dash shallower. A deep dash is wasted passenger space, imo. -
This is a sweet concept. It is small, but its ability to reconfigure for a longer bed makes it brilliant for the occasional Lowes or Home Depot run. The rear seat would never get used by me, except for groceries. I'd buy one. TDi and stick?

Very nice color choices. Love the fact it is a stick shift (3 pedals). And the bench seat. Other than that, it scores a zero.

Chevrolet News:GM Confirms and Teases Mid-Engine Corvette

Ugh WTF -
New Encore and Encore GX look great, imo. GM has finally figured out how to design a GLOBAL Buick, instead of a regional one (Envision, I'm looking at YOU in my head). I think both variations could be sold here successfully, if they are built in North America. Good job!

According to our DP, there is a Genesis AWD coupe coming. We just signed on to be the only Genesis dealer in SE PA, and he's seen it. -

Well they've renewed copyright for the name Cavalier, which, looking at the current car sold overseas, appears to be similarly sized to the Cruze, but cheaper to build. -

Amazing transformation. Proof that small cars CAN be built. Happy a manual remains. -

I can see why so many people have left this site over the years. -
The Colorado Z71 Trail Runner and Silverado WT Appearance Package 4X4 V8 I posted above are in the same price range, at $39k. I could save $1400 and get the excellent 4.3L V6 in the Silverado. Both trucks with V6 would get similar gas mileage, per road test reports. The Colorado, with a low profile radio antenna, would fit in my garage. The Silverado would need parked outside, and I would want a remote start kit put on it for winter mornings. My dad and brother both park their trucks outside their garages... and although I think a garage is for vehicle storage and not junk, I could get used to parking outside I guess. But do I want to? I just love the idea of an old-school regular cab pickup truck...

The black GMC Sierra regular cab demonstrating its G80 locker is a 6.5' bed. The only 5.5' bed is on the crewcab. A 6.5' bed can be ordered with the crewcab half ton. 8' bed is the only bed lemf available IN THE USA on the regular cab half ton, and the regular and double (extended) cab HD. Balthy, are you confused on bed lemfs? SIZE MATTERS. I am mystified as to why GM will not sell a regular cab 6.5' bed in the USA... but they will in Mexico and the Middle East. It is the ideal configuration for maneuverability, garagability, etc. etc.
