  1. If I understand you correctly, your calculations only take into account the first 40 miles. $10,000 / 40 = 250 $/mile. However the battery is good for more than just one charge. What you should be asking is; How many miles is the battery good for? So if the battery is good for say 500 trips 500 * 40 = 20,000 miles so in reality the cost per mile would be more like 10,000 / 20,000 = 0.5 $/mile. I just pulled those numbers out of the air. But the most important thing, IMO, is that it will relieve our dependence on oil.

    I agree, I think that some of the options should be standard. Come on, the Rainsense wipers come standard on the Astra but not the CTS?

    We are all adults here; I hope. I'm not telling you guys what to do or what not to do. I was just dropping a friendly reminder to be careful. It seems that lately there have been a few trolls around here. There are a lot of people with too much time on there hands that if they really wanted to they could find the site. I think we have good administrator that catch on to them quickly so it’ not much of a problem. But I digress…

    This will just cause a site war. You'll have people from their site coming to this site and troll around until they get kicked off. I really don’t want to come here and read nonsense for the next couple of days.

    Something that has worked well for my family in changing oil is having a big container to empty the oil in and only have to take it back once a year or so. If we know that we will be needing another container we simply take the full container on our first trip to the auto part store; no need to go back twice.

    You’ll be surprise
  7. I agree, the two articles I read today had the same feeling. I just can't believe how excited one of the author was.

    Some one already has had the Enclave for weeks. Apparently he doesn't like it at all. Well according to Edmunds owner reviews section.
  9. I don't post a lot here, I do mostly reading. This deserves a response. This needs to be in the market. $1,000 (USD) is nothing compared to the hybrids markup. With its fuel economy it would pay it self quickly.
  10. hmmmm.... a death ray? Toyota next step to take over the world.

    BMW announced that they will release a hydrogen-burning car, early next year; it will be a 7-Series.

    I have to agree with you. The first think that came to my mind is SRT-4 riced out.

    Front reminds me a lot of a Saturn.
