They've all turned into piles of iron oxide round here... along with the Metros and Cavaliers.

It isn't already?

For what GMCTruckguy is going to be doing with a truck like this in suburban NJ, I doubt handling is that much of a concern.

Does it change if you put higher octane fuel in it?
-
You must have better roads out your way. The 18s on the Buick are about as big as I'd want to go. Again with the handling though, what does it really matter on a truck like this?
-
Which means they could have just called the car STS, and what is now the ATS should have been called CTS. It doesn't really matter since they're going to all get renamed anyway. But then the Fusion should have been named Taurus too. At the rate BMWs are putting on weight, price, and size, the 3-series is going to need to be renamed 7-series in a generation or two.

That isn't a problem. The CTS just took over for the STS and lost the coupe in the process (though I believe we'll see a new one). Just like it's not a problem that the Fusion took over for the Taurus.
-
what does wheel size have to do with tire quality? I can get 90k mile warranty 15" tires for my CR-V... in fact, that's what's on there now.
-
Just remember how much more they'll cost to replace when you need new tires.
-
Really? no one wants to take a wack at this?
-
The Hemi "prefers" mid-grade, but will run just fine on regular. There is just a slight dial back in horsepower and torque when it detects the lower octane fuel.
-
Better handling on 22s maybe, but better ride? No way. But who buys a Sierra for handling? Here in the pothole state, I always opt for smaller wheels when possible.

Happy Birthday Cory!

Couldn't wait for the TDI?

Did GMC use Fisher?

Well, automatics aren't just faster 0-60, automatics can now shift gears faster than any human rowing his own. DCTs are even faster still. If you're just doing a 0-60 run, an automatic will also shift smarter than a human... getting the shift points right each and every time now that they are computer controlled.

The Malibu is a failure because it is positively compact inside compared to the competition. The Sonata, Optima, Accord, and Passat are huge in the back. Numbers or not, the Malibu feels like the smallest car in the class. Even the Jetta feels roomier and the Cruze feels almost the same.
