  1. 2Quick, I'd say most of my tanks are 85% highway with my 50 mile commute 5 days a week. I agree with Z-06 that a manual trans would have been a great thing to have in a Cruze diesel, but yours should loosen up nicely as the miles pile on. Let us know how it does on that long trip.
  2. Brown late model Roadmaster Estate wagon (with woodgrain). It had a black Impala SS grille... and in place of the bowtie? A "Final 500" Oldsmobile emblem tacked on.
  3. I am going to pine like crazy over these new trucks if I feel I cannot afford one.
  4. Sweet car, dude
  5. Looking closely, I can also see signs of a Sweepspear, which is a defining Buick styling characteristic missing from the current car. And one I feared would not survive due to GM's insistence on synergizing Buick with Opel.
  6. I have a nagging fear of the MSRP of a Colorado equipped the way I'd want it. We'll see. As of now, this VW has been very enjoyable.
  7. Filled it up yesterday. 581.8 miles, 13.769 gallons. $4.00.9/gal. 42.25 MPG this round.
  8. I am sure an all-electric Durango would just be such a smashing success.
  9. I trust today was a good one.
  10. If anyone still does not believe that California is full of Looney Toons, I feel sorry for them. This is a MONUMENTAL waste of automakers' resources. RIDICULOUS and ASININE.
  11. You've done a good job with it! I hope the repairs hold for you.
  12. This is not even a Denali, it is an SLT. Makes me shudder to think what the Colorado/Canyon will be priced at. GM is running up the prices of the fullsize trucks. Is it a profit grab? Is it a misguided attempt to temper sales to meet these ridiculously oppressive CAFE standards looming? Thinking if a Silverado LT double cab 4X4 Z71 is at least $44k, it is likely a Colorado ext cab Z71 will be about 10 grand cheaper... out of my budgetary reach.
  13. Also an Emerald Green 2014 GMC Sierra Double Cab SLT Z71. $48,000. WTF? So sad. Gorgeous truck though.
  14. I am pretty sure that under a load, this engine will sound fantastic. I am not concerned with the revving video.
  15. Light metallic blue Rabbit pickup with period GTI wheels. I heard it before I sawr it... parked in a gas station parking lot, the driver was picking up some ice... VW diesel engine idling a sweet little clatter.
  16. There's another video of this demonstration, taken from a different perspective, and it sounds better.
  17. Truly a heavy hitter, swingin' that big ol' thing between its legs. LOVE.
  18. Needed to recharge my batteries.
  19. So, the customer comes in, and Datsun turns over a new Leaf? Is that what you are saying?
  20. There already WAS a hybrid Tahoe, and it failed miserably.
  21. A charcoal gray one of those electric Datsuns. I LOL'd.
  22. Mr. dfelt, for the sake of the integrity of C&G as a news source, please change the title of this thread and the text of your first post.
