I might actually change my New selection from Lacrosse to a 300C V8 if I can find one nicely equipped for under $40k.

Fire an EMP?

You're thinking the W12. the V8s are pretty solid.

I rarely use the Encore's NAV anymore and I've already told Albert the next vehicles won't have it. I use Waze as my NAV app because I want the police and traffic alerts. Since I have to carry two phones for work anyway, I just use one of them for NAV and music.

Honda News: 2017 Honda CR-V Features A New Look, Turbo Power
Drew Dowdell replied to William Maley's topic in Honda
I do think the styling is a huge improvement over the current model. I'm meh about the powertrain.... it's fine as a base engine, but what about an option for those who want/need more power? -
My Cutlass Convertible - $220 My CTS - $335 My Avalanche - $465 My Encore - $348

It's just a reversal of a trend... and a good reversal too. I originally felt that displacement reduction + turbo charging was the answer, but it hasn't seemed to be the case.

Buick to launch Avenir as high-end sub-brand
Drew Dowdell replied to Cmicasa the Great's topic in Buick
I could go with that one also... I just think Avenir doesn't mean anything to Americans and sounds overly pretentious -

Frisky's Personal GTI Long Term Review

This is not your Great grandfather's Oldsmobile!
-
I've been a couple times. It was less impressive than I was expecting, but still good. They get pricey for someone like me who only eats smaller portions.
-
Sure... one manufactured by Mazda. The thing is... if the holes have already be punched in the back yard, the expensive and complicated part is done.

Even with the best research, someone can get a terrible Honda or a great Fiat.

There are many makes/models of geothermal. Like all major purchases, reliability should be researched.

Sales: Sales Figure Ticker: September 2016
Drew Dowdell replied to William Maley's topic in 2016 Sales Archive
Careful throwing around the absolutes... Brand differences are important. GMC can charge $65k for a base Yukon Denali... That's $2k more than a base Navigator. It's unlikely GM would be able to pull that off if the Denali was "just" a Chevy. Denali trim alone out sells the entire Lincoln brand, so I think GM has a pretty good profit motive there.- 20 replies

With my new furnace, which is only 93%, but has infinitely variable speed blower and humidity control (important in super cold climates, you can be comfortable at a lower temperature), my well insulated house is only about $100 a month now in the winter.
