yeah. i really dont know where they come up with the names of these cars. I like Mercedes and BMW's number naming system. Been the same for yearrrs.

I mean we all know GM isnt going to Wow the industry with a product that everyone is going to jump on and dump their current cars. They're a pretty slow lumbering giant. But comparing this new "cruze" to the current "cobalt" I like the design better...

One thing that angers me about their cars today, especially in the new Impala's is the monsterous A and C pillars...I mean do they really need to be that huge? I once saw a w124 a-pillar hold up an entire w201 car.

I've heard rumors that by this time next year the company will be broke...We're doing all sorts of quality control stuff over in the metal stamping side of the fab plant..I'm really not sure whats taken so long for them to do it. I'm sure MB was doing stuff like this eons ago.

I guess we should give them some credit, they are thinking small car. But today's small car is yesterday's mid-size. My 190 is considered a sub-compact. I think it just the right size though.

I dont get the transvestite engine line though.
