  1. uh... wasn't it agreed on at the begining that the other business would be in on the deal. I'm pretty sure they kicked in some development dough.
  2. damn missed....
  3. Give it a face lift and I'd agree with you Fly..... until then.... they're wasting T/C ecotecs on THAT?!?
  4. ....and then you get behind the wheel.....
  5. they finally got rid of teh pushrods and 4 speed auto! triple overhead cam and 27 speed autos all the way baby!
  6. I'm taking care of that ;-)
  7. I'm the same way camino. Right now, the only homerun for me isn't sold in this country either. CTS-D
  8. I'm not picky about color. Black is just an ideal.
  9. :drool: :drool:
  10. not really, I'd still hate the center stack for the single DIN stacked on double DIN look and the airbag that looks like it came from a Celica....
  11. It's a Nissan Z ass and a Celica face.
  12. "meh" @ 5.slow a 350 would have fit just as well.
  13. Riddle me this Batman... if the Vectra is good enough to import to Mexico... why can't it come to the US?
  14. Chevy Tornado
  15. That came out beautiful.... and I don't even like Fieros.
  16. Here is your answer: ML320 Horsepower 268 @ 6000 Torque (lb-ft) 258 @ 2400 City (mpg) 15 Highway (mpg) 20 Ground Clearance (in.) 8.30 The ML simply can't match the numbers of the non-hybrid Tahoe much less the Hybrid one. Tahoe 5.3 4WD 320 @ 5200 RPM 340 @ 4200 RPM City (mpg) 15 Highway (mpg) 21 Ground Clearance (in.) 9.10 Chevy traditionally underrates the towing capacity of their SUVs. The ML simply does not have the torque to be towing 7200lbs with any authority. I've towed 6,000lbs over the West Virginia mountains with the Avalanche and the truck acted like the trailer wasn't even there. To put all this in perspective: 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Horsepower 260 Torque (lb-ft) 330 City (mpg) 17 Highway (mpg) 26 Max tow capacity 7,000lbs Even a 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood is a better choice than the ML if you're regularly going to tow 7,000 lbs. edit: Damn, I miss-read his post. However, the GL320 specs are: Horsepower 215 @ 4000 RPM Torque (lb-ft) 398 @ 1600 RPM Ground Clearance (in.) 7.80 The torque sounds nice in this... but remember that electric motors have 100% of their max torque available at 0 rpm.
  17. Sorry. No.
  18. oh we were actually supposed to guess?
  19. two "harass camino" threads!
  20. but it's sooooo much fun!
  21. they stuffed 6 metro engines in that thing?
  22. Ford Ranchero?
  23. I like how this has turned into a "Harass Camino" thread.
