Lincoln News: Lincoln's Used-Car Subscription Program Not Doing So Well
Same reason I grew up in 4x4 wagons (Suburu GL and Dodge Colt Vista)... we were always out camping and such. The "wilds" of NJ where we went weren't enough to warrant a Suburban, but if we really needed to get somewhere the Colt Vista couldn't, my dad's F250 could do it. That said, my dad couldn't help taunting a show-off Wrangler driver who was on a lightweight off-road course. Put the Colt Vista into 4WD and started following him around the course with 2 kids in carseats in the back.

Chevrolet News:Chevrolet Readies A New Strategy To Stop Ford and Dodge From Eating Camaro's "Lunch"
I'm sure you could do direct orders, but no, they weren't only direct order. They were limited in the total number sold. Chevy only planned to sell X of them every year.

or the SS from the previous generation. Prior Camaro and the SS were both on Zeta.

The Mustang is much easier to get into and out of..... even in my old age I can feel the difference between a Camaro and Mustang. Once I get into a Camaro, I am comfortable... but getting in and out is a chore compared to Mustang.

At least they picked a different name..... it's just the interior and grille that are Camaro inspired

Cleaning the Throttle Body?
Depends on how bad and where the gunk is. Honestly just running top tier fuel for a few tanks would probably be enough.

Why? It's just a long term rental with insurance and maintenance built in. If someone like GM did it at reasonable prices (fat chance) I would get into it. Swap cars twice a year, have an AWD SUV in the winter and a Camaro in the summer. Or if I know I'm going to be doing a lot of hauling, get a truck.

I'd go with the challenger just because I like the bigger car feel. Not the V6 though...

Random Thoughts Thread
I rarely post non-manufacturer "concept" art... but this was just dead sexy. Cadillac could totally pull this off and make a coupe with actual distinction over something like the CLS or 6-series jellybeans.

Cadillac News: Cadillac Making Some Changes To The V-Series
Just how irrelevant is 0-60? Over the weekend I was moving about the city in the Encore. Guy pulls around in a Camaro SS with some sort of exhaust upgrade... making all sorts of noise. Light turns green and we're both off. Of course he has a nose ahead of me, but then there is a bus in his lane and I get to keep going while he's on the brakes. I could have been in my Toronado which measures 0-60 with a sundial and the outcome would have been the same. That's what 99% of driving is like.

Do you like the "laptop left open" feature on dashboard center stacks?
Cadillac was actually a pretty early adopter of this. I don't know if it was technically a "first" 2008 CTS

I would like it if they could retract into the dash. On Mazda, that isn't the case.
