2013 Malibu - Launch Summary
while the engine is surprising in it's not a 200hp one. it should be better, if it can do 35mpg+, super...that's a big part of this market's target. everything else seems kinda status qua for a new model to "evolve with"

Operation Cut $10k Out Of The Volt Is 'On Track'
nice article, assuming in that time span everything else is relatively static, which almost certainly won't happen. in 10 years if they make it $10K cheaper, they'll be lucky if it's still $40k.

All Your Spots Under One Umbrella
Did it look like the one posted in the GMC section, with exposed rocker panel mounting holes, or did this one actually have the extension panels installed? Here... this is the one I'm talking about: actually... i might be wrong, ... thinking back it was an acadia. still pretty new, and $$$$, right?

A New Engine Concept for a practical Malibu Hybrid
i don't think it's bad... but the redline popped out at me as something "sporty drivers" will laugh at world wide. the gains over the one now are ~20%, yes?

Texas House Approves Plan To Raise Speed Limits
rapid change of speed kills people. hehe should just be fair weather speed and bad weather speed. i know on "back roads" i can go ~15mph over the suggested speed just fine on sharp turns (unless it's a <30mph turn) in nice weather.

W-body Grand Prix
mine, usually. when it sits long enough it will be accurate till it starts sloshing around

W-body Grand Prix
i'm betting both are 3.8Ls the 99 is a GT. i'd go with the newer one if it's in your budget. should be safer, better reliability... the 99 might have the gas level sensor problem mine has, which only showed up after ~130K or so. the 99 might be easier to work on though....

DDR4 samples made
Hybrid drives where it's one unit, or hybrid setups involving more than one hard drive? My work desktop (self-built) has a 90gb SSD OS drive + RAID10 array (4x750gb Caviar Black). one unit, like the seagate momentus XT.

2006 Impala Help
if it's doors... i don't know where the triggers for those are, but you can turn the car to on and open and close each door to see if it's those... with the ignition on. play with the seat belts see if it has a faulty position.

What's political about saying you'll see fewer Nazis watching re-runs of the Nuremburg trials than if you watch Glenn Beck? It's not a comment on his politics. The man uses more footage of the Nazis and Nazi propaganda than the History Channel. when? i don't see any of the typical 1/2 hour i catch after watching jeopardy. unless you're commenting on how few nazis were tried at nuremburg... on wiki "Some 200 German war crimes defendants were tried at Nuremberg" that's really not that many.
