  1. Reminds me of a derelict early 90s Taurus I've seen around here a few times...been hit front and rear, has round headlights bolted on the metal bumper bar (the plastic front fascia and flush lights are long gone, along w/ the hood) and red coffee can lids for taillight lenses...
  2. It will be at that. I just don't want to see it beat on by media and idiots that do not understand what the real goal is here. Also I do not want GM to say we will build 50,000 a year. I would rather they under estimate the total. It is better to underestimate production vs over estimate it and look a failure. Some of the know-nothing asshats in other forums I'm active in are already calling it the 'Cimmaron II".
  3. Possible culprits: The easy availablity of cheap, high-calorie, high fat GM fast food Giant serving portions in restaurants General sloth, in part fueled by easy access to the internet and cable tv Suburbanization...have to drive everywhere, no walking We are becoming the land of the Sitting Dead...
  4. This is going to be a neat low volume halo car.
  5. It's odd...I recall seeing the ZDX at a new car show a couple years ago when it first came out, then very rarely ever saw them on the road. Then in the last week, have seen 3 of them on the road...(black, white, silver).
  6. Makes the Spark look like a luxury car... about the only thing this small here currently is the Mitsu i, I think...
  7. The Avalon is a nice Toyo-Buick. I have a friend that has one, refers to it as a Japanese Buick. A nice step above the ubiquitous Camry
  8. Coachmen makes a Pathfinder Class A motor home.. http://www.coachmenrv.com/products/pathfinder.aspx
  9. If it ran on CNG, though, you'd be all excited by it, though.
  10. Looking good..Weather Tech mats are great, I've had a set for over 10 years for my Jeep incl. the cargo area liner mat. They hold up really well.
  11. Looks like a nice clean, honest work truck. Low miles for the age, low price.
  12. I was told quite pointedly this week by some people at GM that the General is working hard at getting all of the volume sellers where they want first before working on the special cars that most of us around here wish for. They want their cars to be at or near the top of each major segment first. Have a good base and then work on the fun stuff. That is a sound approach. A company has to get the fundamentals right first.
  13. The local Cadillac store has at least 3 ATSes in stock..drove by the morning, saw a white one, a black one, and a silver blue one..
  14. Nope, just very little market demand. I like the look and colors of the interior....that new front end, though...
  15. 1) some old European truck? 2) '68 Mercury Cyclone 3) custom based on a '63 T-Bird 4) Bedford van
  16. Sounds like Faux News type garbage.
  17. I was in San Francisco the last few days for a conference and saw a few Fiat 500s around town, incl. a black Abarth. Even saw an old Fiat--an X1/9!
  18. My grandfather had a '40 Packard coupe, seen pics of it..it was my Dad's car for a while around 1947-1949... I'd look at the Graham (Sharknose) for it's audacious styling, but be put off by the struggling independent nature of the brand. Maybe go w/ a Buick or a Cadillac if I was one of the swells..
  19. There was an article back in the summer about people in the Phoenix area seeing only a 30-40 mile range, perhaps because of the vile, disgusting summer heat...
  20. It's understandable, though in an era where most cars are just appliances. Most consumers don't maintain their dishwasher, washing machine, etc until they break, no different w/ their garage appliances...
  21. I like it... definitely has a vintage Bond theme feel...fits well w/ the Shirley Bassie songs...looking fwd to the new Bond movie..
  22. On the GMC Canyon & Chevy Colorado, the fleet option is called a Mid-Box: That is a neat feature.
  23. Marketing. They are emphasizing Ram as Chrysler's truck brand, like Jeep is their SUV brand.
  24. Wild chase..don't think I've seen that movie.
  25. I'm sure the FWD ones sell well in sunbelt states...99% of drivers don't need off road capabilities.
