Fiat News: Marchionne Still Dreams of A FCA-GM Merger
Moe hyperbole. they are actually paying down their debt at an incredible rate. the new platform and turbo 4 engines that will spread across the line are now out there, the new Compass looks to be a hit, The Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer, and new Ram are coming. The Compass looks to be a hit. The LX cars are cash cows as the tooling is long paid off and the Charger has a strong following in police fleets. The KSP for example uses almost exclusively Chargers. Despite a lack of updates, the Journey continues to post higher sales numbers each month while being a cash cow, as, again, the tooling is long paid off. Hellcat demand continues to outpace production capacities. They could be the number 1 seller in the world and you would still be predicting doom........

2018 Subaru XV (Crosstrek) Becomes Slightly More Off-Road Capable: Comments
Still has the same problem it had before. The 2.0/CVT combo is a complete dog that makes even a Renegade seem like a top fuel dragster.......

In the heavy rain this morning, I realize the lack of a rear wiper on the bug is a bit of an omission.

Jeep News: Jeep Wrangler Pickup Pushed Back To 2019
More or less. They are making the money of the current Wrangler, whose tooling has been paid of for a long time (Like Ford did with the Ranger, Panthers, and Fox cars), so I figured they would extend it's production as long as possible even beside the new one. I also get the distinct feeling there is something about the new Wrangler they are a bit apprehensive about. Be it the fact that it may have a bit of Aluminum in the body panels or possibly because the top will more than likely no longer be fully removeable as it is now.

I think mother Nature is having a bi-polar Vortex. Day for yesterday it was warm with storms and chances of tornadoes. I wake up to snow on the ground this morning. Gotta love Kentucky weather.......

Still think they are full of it, but hopefully the sheeple will buy some Impalas and Cruzes.

Good bones, fun to drive, a 2.0 turbo that lives up to it's FE claim. He TUrbo is closer to a GTi than a regular golf. it gets the 2.0T, 6 speed manual, and the GTi's rear suspension and front brake based torque vectoring.

I am thinking maybe sell the motorsports and z71. Keep the camry, 4x4 dakota, and Bug. The 2 are just taking up space right now. Hmmmmm Could still trade the bug when i am ready and use the on-time payments to build credit so i don't get raped on the interest rate next time haha. Truth is i didn't think i would have anyone interested in the bug for what i owe on it, but boy was i surprised lol.

I honestly think I would still go V6 because it is much quicker, should still get ok fuel economy, and you get the new 8 speed auto (pretty sure the diesel still makes due with the 6 speed). That would be awesome.

Chevrolet News:2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE Is Turned Up To 11
GT350R also does rear seat delete to save weight. The solution to the Hellcat putting down power is called the Demon I love the fact that all 3 have unique personalities. Hellcat: GT good for a trip across the country with 4 people and all their luggage and you can even get it with 4 doors! GT350: High revving, sound of the gods V8 engine you want to rev just to hear it sing Camaro: Low torque supercharged beast with pleny of power and supercar handling.
