FIRST LOOK: 2008 Saturn VUE
I really hope so. I will certainly buy one. I test drove the suzuki Grand Vitara stick. It is fun to drive. But I need a more powerful V-6. I I guess there is another Boilermaker family who loves stick shifts.

First GMT-900s roll off the line at Fort Wayne
But honestly the truck has not gained too much girth compared to the previous model, which is good engineering.

FIRST LOOK: 2008 Saturn VUE
I honestly think GM should add a 6-speed manual tranny to the 3.6l. I love this car, but coming from a family who loves to shift on their own, I will try to buy anything with a stick. They should offer it only as a build to buy configuration so it does not rot on the dealer lot.

Lex(Dogs)us got bitch slapped- Super Sedan Comparo
I definitely think no matter how much money you spend on a luxury car it still should be fun to drive not a commodity. Judging from Clarkson and the way he liked the S-Class and now C and D it does make sense to accept Dogsus got all wrong. To learn how to create a dispassionate car learn from Toyota. They have been doing it for 25 years atleast here in States. Even the European car magazines snubbed the Dog, which means a lot. That is the drawback of reverse engineering which Toyota had been faithfully following. Copying the Germans and trying to make one better seemed to have worked initially but now they seem to have lost it and to a point whoring it. Frankly I never can associate "Sports" with Toy-boy-ta (even though they claim they have a racing division ). The good way to judge is how they have not won A SIGNLE F-1 GP during their seven years of racing and even having one of the highest budget in the history of the sports. They even tried to spy and steal Ferrari's Aerodynamics design. I think only time will show how Toyota is gonna go downhill.

Camaro Convertible at Detroit in January?
I could not agree more with you. The damage was done by the press when it came with only 285 horses and 4-speed and being heavy (which it was for the smaller engine). When it got a rejuvanation with its 5.7l V-8 things had just been FUBAR. I test drove one with 6-speed at the GM's Autoshow in motion 4 times. I loved it. It had some grunt and it handled pretty well. And I will not mind to get a used one for the commute. If GM would have kept it at 35k-40k range like the Siverado SS then the story would have been different.

GM Announces LAIAS Debuts
GM saved the best for their homeground show. Good to know about the hybrid foray. Although nothing about the new type of hybrid which we heard about a few days ago? Do they want to shock everybody?

Buick Wants to Bring in the Black Guys

Buick Wants to Bring in the Black Guys
Absolutely!! I will give you a perfect example from GM's own cradle. Cadillac Escalade I have not only seen African American people drive it but I know the following people who are not African American and own it: 1. One white surgeon 2. One Canadian Doctor 3. One white single mom Engineer 4. Two consultants (One of them Indian and other white) 5. There is one Syrian engineer who is planning to buy one. And all magazines apply the BLING tag to the Escalade. But if they have a good product I do not think they should brand the people who GM might think will buy it. I think tagging a vehicle to a particular race to me is racism indirectly. Rather GM should just have a broad national campaign.
