  1. I love spicy food...you've got to take me to that restaurant, dude. Yeah, I love spicy, forgot to take my Immodium before and after...didn't have any with me and decided to wing it..
  2. I've read there will be an SUV based on the new Colorado called TrailBlazer. No idea if NA will get it.
  3. Tonight, my bowels burn with the heat of 1000 suns. Magma flows... Should not have had Chicken Vindaloo for dinner but it's so damn good.
  4. New platform I assume. Intentional Chevy family resembalance..
  5. Welcome back..good to hear things are going well for you.
  6. Ah...I'm surprised..didn't know that particular driver was from Ohio. Cool. Ah...I'm surprised..didn't know that particular driver was from Ohio. Cool.
  7. I'm embarrased I don't know the answer, being from Ohio and an Indy racing fan. I'm drawing a blank, but I do remember the Talledega record.. will have to do some googling.
  8. Hmmm...Wikipedia says the Super Turbine 300 aka Jetaway was a 2 speed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Turbine_300 Didn't know GM had 4 speed autos before the '90s.
  9. Those regular cab short bed pickups look sharp. I rarely ever see regular cab trucks anymore.
  10. It's launching in Thailand and Australia first I think, but developed in Brazil I've read. I'm wondering about the dimensions..bigger than the current Colorado but smaller than the Dakota, I think.
  11. I like both the basic and deluxe GM dashes..a materials and switchgear upgrade would have been nice...the basic design is pretty clean compared to the busy Ford design. Of course, time moves slowly in full-size truck land--the Nissan Titan interior is pretty much unchanged from '04 IIRC.
  12. It will be interesting to see where GM goes with the next full sizers. Haven't really seen or read anything yet. With the new CAFE standards coming, I would think there will be emphasis on greater efficiency across the line..wonder if there will be a slight downsizing and some weight loss...(isn't a typical Silverado today about a ton heavier than one from 20 years ago)?
  13. Happy Birthday, Olds.
  14. I've sat in a couple Silverados, for a truck they seemed fine, likewise for the Suburban (same dash as higher line Silverados). I had an F150 rental last year, the dash was a mess of too many wierd elements, too many cutlines and very cheap plastics.
  15. Chrysler is no longer the international brand either. It's murky...aren't Lancias going to be called Chryslers in the UK, but Chryslers will be Lancias elsewhere in Europe or something...strange stuff.
  16. It's nearly 9 and I've only had one cup of coffee. Usually on my 3rd by now.
  17. They need interior refreshes NOW. The full size interiors look fine...maybe not as nice as Ram, but better than the hideous plastic mess that is the F150 interior..
  18. mullet
  19. The 200 is outselling the Avenger, isn't it? And since Chrysler, not Dodge, is the international brand, maybe they decided Chrysler should get a global midsize while Dodge doesn't get one since it's NA only..
  20. Kewl...will have to look for those recolors.
  21. GM needs to stop making excuses though and start tackling the weight problem. I can guarantee you that the Sonic is not 400 lbs heavier because it is carrying 400 lbs of sound deadening! Probably heavier steel in the platform and suspension compontents to absorb the shock of Michigan's 3rd world road conditions?
  22. What's a Slim Jim have to do with a '64 Catalina?
  23. Ok....so only Chrysler will get a midsize car and minivan? And Dodge gets a midsize CUV? Wierd strategery. Unless they are setting up for a Dodge phaseout down the road.
  24. Yes, that's why the Pontiac forum is in the 'Heritage Marques' section.
