  1. We've mixed up the prizes a bit. There are now two ways to win!
  2. You're absolutely right. The Sierra Denali that I had most recently is what I was thinking of. I thought you could still get the 6.2 on the Yukon without going Denali
  3. We're going to mix up the prize a little bit. Details in the morning.
  4. Next-gen Malibu Still A Year Off In U.S. If you were hoping to drive the next-generation Chevy Malibu this summer, you'll need to ask yourself one question. "Do I live in the United States?" If you answered yes, call your travel agent and make sure your passport is up-to-date. Any summer wheelin' in the new Malibu will require a quick hop to Korea.

  6. Next-gen Malibu Still A Year Off For the U.S. Chris Doane - CheersandGears.com January 27, 2011 If you were hoping to drive the next-generation Chevy Malibu this summer, you'll need to ask yourself one question. "Do I live in the United States?" If you answered yes, call your travel agent and make sure your passport is up-to-date. Any summer wheelin' in the new Malibu will require a quick hop to Korea. Earlier today, GM announced to several of its' suppliers that the start of regular production for the U.S. market Chevy Malibu would be in early January of 2012. If that seems like a long wait, count your blessings. The original timeline didn't have production kicking off until May 2012. Much like the rollout for the Chevy Cruze, export markets should get their hands on the new Malibu quite a bit sooner. Built in Korea, and wearing a Holden Epica badge, this foreign market version will go into production in the summer, or early Fall, of this year. While that might irritate American buyers, it may at least point to a debut of the Malibu at the 2011 New York Auto Show. Once Chevy starts churning out the new Malibu from the Fairfax and Detroit Hamtramck plants, there's not likely to be any V6 engines under the hood. Instead, you'll find the 2.4L SIDI 4-cylinder or the direct-inject, turbo-charged 2.0L 4-cylinder. There will also be a "mild hybrid" Malibu, utilizing the second generation Belt Alternator System. Formerly dubbed "BAS-Plus," we now know it as "eAssist." The same system will appear in the 2012 Buick Lacrosse where it is said to increase fuel economy by 25%. Similar gains should be expected in the Malibu. For fans of the current Malibu, GM will continue building them through the 2012 model year. Expect it to wear a "Classic" badge during its' final run. © 2011 CheersandGears.com - Do not republish without permission Related: Spyshots as the 2012 Malibu draws closer Understanding the 2012 Buick Lacrosse eAssist Buick: What We've Learned - Verano likely to get eAssist
  7. It's an Acadia dash with extra wood and leather on the wheel and center stack.
  8. It's not uncommon in large corporations. In my previous company (the one that made money in spite of themselves) they didn't like criticism from the inside, but if it was a highly paid outside consultant that came in and said the same thing? They were brilliant.
  9. You'll just have to wait for the full review ;-)
  10. Global warming is the old word. As scientists gained more understanding of it, the proper term is global climate change. The reason for this is that extended melting of arctic ice due to higher summer temperatures can actually cause record cold weather in Europe.
  11. Amenities. You can't get these amenities in the Yukon for that price...
  12. Demonstration of the auto park feature.
