    The data from Ohio is strange also, a lot more cases in my county (Cuyahoga) than the state capital (Franklin) and both counties are of similar population (about 1.2 m) and population density. More testing here in the Cleveland area than in Columbus (Franklin County)? Not sure..

    Mine can be that slow at times...just ran speedtest, 375 Mbps...I've seen it over 700Mbps at times...(Cox Gigablast).

    That album was a major part of my soundtrack in the mid 90s when I lived in Michigan and was in grad school.. listening to it always brings me back to the good times and infinite despair of those years.

    But this is GM we are talking about..they always figure out how to cheap out... beancounters won't let them go all out.

    Some fun music appropriate to current events.

    I can’t touch Mountain Dew either. Drank way too much of it in grad school and my first couple jobs. Haven’t had one in close to 20 years probably.

    I have to cut off caffeine by 4...it messes up my sleep if I drink something caffeinated in the evening, even with my sleeping pills.

    I quit energy drinks maybe 10 years ago. I do enjoy a few Cokes or Cherry Cokes ( the European size mini cans) every week as an afternoon pickup... can’t stand the taste of diet sodas. But for caffeine I have 3-4 cups of coffee every morning before 10.. with the time change I’ve been needing an extra cup...been sleeping in until 8.

    I did stock up on dog treats and dog food from Amazon..that came today. And jerky, snacks, etc. I've been pretty much quarantined since the beginning of February, so nothing new. Got plenty of TP, paper towels, cleaning supplies. Just ordered some Omaha Steaks and fixins from Amazon, going to do some grilling..

    The doomsday preppers and end times believers must be feeling validated these days. Surreal days.

    Would like to see interior pics of the Porsche shooting brake...strange to imagine a mid engined wagon. I like the side profile.

    Attending the local Big Data meet up virtually over a Zoom room instead of in person...

    It will be interesting to see what happens in F1 this year...if the season does indeed start in May or get cancelled completely... <sarcasm> They should just can cancel the rest of the season and give the championships to M-B and Hamilton, as that is the usual predictable result.. </sarcasm>

    I'd be happy with a base C8 (maybe w/ the Z51 suspension option) in Zeus Bronze w/ full tan interior..
  15. Robert Hall
    I don't know if it will be the Z06 or the ZR1, but I'd love to see a street C8 with the wing and bodywork of the C8R...

    The AMG One might have been interesting 5 years ago, but now it would be just another hypercar.. Koenigseggegg is doing some really interesting things w/ ICE design.
  17. Robert Hall
    An EV Vette would be cool to see down the road... will be interesting to see the kind of performance Tesla gets out of their new roadster.. The AMG One is mythical, I would think the Tesla Roadster is more likely to happen and be faster..

    They really were the same except for minor trim differences and the front and taillights. The Comet had a bulging hood/grille/bumper center section.

    Amazon Prime/Whole Foods is having issues..tried to place an grocery order and they couldn't schedule a delivery time tomorrow (or any other day this week). So I went to the local Giant Eagle (NE Ohio/W Pa chain) this afternoon, no more crowded than usual for a Sunday (worst day to go grocery shopping), they were pretty much out of bread and meat, no TP or paper towels either. But I found pretty much everything on my list. I'm not sure if someone has a sense of humor or what, but back by the empty meat counters there was a shopping cart chock full of packages of condoms with a 20% off discount sign.

    Would be nice, but most likely they will create an XT7 off the generic Traverse, etc platform. Their RWD based models are superior to GMs FWD generics though.
  22. Robert Hall
    GM isn't in that niche...they make volume FWD/transverse engine appliance CUVs and heavy BOF full size SUVs.
  23. Robert Hall
    Strange times. I haven't been to the grocery lately---Amazon Prime/Whole Foods deliveries have been fine.. though they are out of TP (I have plenty though).
  24. Robert Hall
    None of that means anything in the real world, though. Using Nurburgring numbers with an SUV is absurd.
  25. Robert Hall
    It kind of is. GM has withdrawn from many markets, cut most of their sedan models and continues to lose market share. Other than NA trucks and full size SUVs, they have no market leadership or dominant products. It’s time to go big for the future or go home.
