  1. *snore* I've been hearing that one ever since the "experts" realized they were going to be wrong about their predictions. Whatever excuse helps you sleep at night, I suppose. The Tigers made it to the World Series and, for all intents and purposes, choked. St. Louis did what a good team does--they took advantage of EVERY mistake Detroit made. The Cardinals were free of any kind of pressure, and they certainly played like it. They had three extremely impressive pitching performances (Reyes, Carpenter, Weaver in Game 5), and two very good ones. The Tigers looked totally unprepared, but the Cardinals looked like a team that won 90+ games in the regular season (they most certainly would have if not for injuries throughout the year). People who don't follow the Cardinals wrote them off, but those who do follow them knew that the overall record was very deceiving. Our players got healthy in the postseason, we did not have Jason Isringhausen closing for us (10 blown saves in the regular season--a big contributor to our final record), the starting pitching really got it together, and the bullpen was stellar, headed up by Adam Wainwright. Watching them win it all was almost surreal. Good job, Cards! St. Louis deserves it!
  2. Anybody know by exactly how much fleet sales have been lowered?
  3. Interior packaging, i.e. no fold-flat third-row seat.
  4. The difference, though, is that the Cadillac managed to look GOOD while being edgy. The Navigator will get noticed, but probably not in the way Lincoln executives were hoping for . . .
  5. So when will these things be hitting the dealerships? I'll be visiting a Chevy dealer in the next week, so it would be exciting to see a new Tahoe.
  6. Here's the link to the topic at the C&D forums, started by myself. B) Linky.

    I won't be taking your word for it.

    You're not able to comment on the quality, but yet you commented on the quality of the wood in your first post? Color me confused. Make up your mind.
  9. The Z06 also ripped off a 3.4-second dash to 60 in the new C&D comparison test against the Viper. The Corvette beat the Viper in EVERY performance category but one (lane change, I think, where it was slower by 0.1 mph), beat it around the track by a second and a half, and cost about $19000 less as-tested. They said the car made them very nervous, but the funny thing is that every other test has claimed that it sticks like glue to the road. Still beat the Viper up and stole its lunch money, though, as it garnered 206 points to the Dodge's 178. "This brawl was over even before the teachers broke it up. In every performance category except one, the Vette won or tied the Viper." "We're still buzzing over the Z06's ferocious 3.4-second burst to 60 mph. That's two-tenths quicker than the Z06 we tested in October." "One editor likened it to 'having a booster rocket at the end of your foot.'" "Jumping on it at any point thrusts the car forward with such fury that four-letter expletives fly uncontrollably from your mouth." The nervousness imparted by the Corvette bothers me a bit, but this is absolutely the first time I've heard anything about it. I've seen two other comparison tests and many individual tests of the Z06 and it was never called anything but stable and sure-footed. Perhaps it was just this particular racetrack?
  10. Cooled seats are indeed an option. Read the press release. And how in the world do you know the granite won't be real? Sounds like an uneducated guess to me.
  11. Well, didn't GM unveil the GMT-800s at the Texas State Fair too? It's not a new idea or anything.
