  1. Very cool custom, glad to see a stock body instead of the usual trite chopped top. I'm sure the driving experience is much more enjoyable with a modern drivetrain, modern brakes, modern suspension than with the '40s hardware.
  2. Wow..an electric motor mated to an old school racing Turbo 400 and solid rear axle. Surreal to think about.
  3. Way cool concept. But I suspect the old-school Camaro fans will flip their gray mullet wigs over this.
  4. That chart will be interesting to see in a year after the new generation of GMs and Rams have been on sale for a while..
  5. The original article isn't clear on whether they are lumping Chevy and GMC together or not.
  6. Unknown..just talking hypotheticals..it's not going to happen, but more a what if.
  7. Not Toyota, but GMC. GMC's annual sales are very close to Ram. (I'm not lumping Chevy and GMC together).
  8. True, but Cadillac would need a new unibody RWD/AWD SUV platform if they were going to take on the GL, Cayenne, etc with a handling-oriented performance SUV..
  9. The driving w/ the lights off could be a side effect of DRLs and the always lit gauges in modern cars. (floroluminescent?). It used to be you had to turn on at least the parking lights to have dash lights, but newer IPs have the gauges always lit.
  10. There is definitely a small performance luxury SUV niche out there, with the Cayenne Turbo, Bentayga, Urus, GL63 AMG all over $100k and over 500hp. An Escalade V series could be a larger, more spacious but less handling-oriented alternative.
  11. This is the Chevy from last year.
  12. A guy a couple streets over has an old Camaro in his Halloween display this year..had a rustbucket '57 Chevy 2dr sedan last year.
  13. I didn’t really have a ranking, just reverse chronological order.
  14. On some vehicles they can be turned off. They can be turned off on my Jeep, for instance.
  15. I did think of using aliases I've used elsewhere... like 'Hallbert' (at my first corporate job--had a Rob and a Robb already on the team) or 'RCube'...
  16. Saw an ad for Lincoln MKX...seems a bit late..shouldn't the Nautilus be on sale by now?
  17. Interesting...would never have noticed that if you hadn't pointed it out. The F150 did that also w/ a grille and lights similar to that, maybe 10-15 years ago. As far as Sunday randomness, Went to a clambake for dinner. It's more of New England/North East thing, but very popular in the Cleveland area. A dozen clams, drawn butter, chicken, asparagus, mashed potatoes, stuffing. I went to two last fall--one at an Italian restaurant and one at a seafood restaurant on the lake. The one today was at a restaurant from Montana that has a location here, looks like a Western lodge inside. A bit odd of a setting for a clambake, but delicious...
  18. I decided to retire Cubical, and Moltar..no more aliases..keep it real. Be myself...
  19. Way too much going on w/ the '18 and '19 Silverado front ends, IMO. Too many cutlines and details. The '14-15 is still much cleaner and better looking IMO. As far as older Chevy pickup fronts, I'd rank these pretty high...at least an '8' or '9', IMO. 83-84, 73-74, 69-70.
  20. Hit the 40,000 mile mark on Friday. Need to get an oil change and recall fix (cruise control) soon, but ready for winter otherwise. Running great.
  21. Did that, they sent me the wrong part. The sent me the stop bumper that goes on the fender back by the hood strut. Taller, different base.
  22. I can read the shift pattern on my laptop. Neat how there is a heart at 6th.
  23. I see a new theme this afternoon...I like. Very clean.
  24. Which is a fine for the target demo of upscale professional young females. They don't have a herd of offspring to haul around.
  25. I'm surprised M-B hasn't done more to utilize the platforms available w/ Renault/Dacia/Nissan in their partnership for models like this. Lots of mainstream inexpensive FWD cars and CUVs from those brands. (going beyond what they have done so far w/ SMART and Renault/Nissan)>
