    I say hit it.
  2. Ford now has a whole lot more debt than the new GM.

    I thought the same thing when I saw that Nissan ad, would have been great marketing for a chevy caprice/belair/commodore .

  5. Here's my answer to "I Have NO POWER!". When I bought my '06 GTO with automatic tranny, I took it to the track and was getting beat by stock LS1 f-bodies (great cars by the way). This didn't seem right to me, I sent the PCM to a tuner to have restrictions such as torque management removed. I took it back to the track, I dropped .8 seconds in the 1/4 mile, and was now beating ls1 f-bodies.
  6. I year ago I would have heartily agreed with the 'stretched thin' comment, but thanks to this recession, recruiting and retention have never been better. That, plus the fact that we are drawing down in Iraq, puts us back into a healthier posture.
  7. What? I can't believe I missed this little gem. You're telling me that you think the North Korean Army is better than the US Army? The US Army is battle hardened from the last 7 years of combat, North Korea hasn't done anything in 55 years. The US Army is more experienced, better trained, and has a huge technological advantage.
  8. It's a good movie, but not as great as the first Transformers. It seemed comparable to the pirates of the Caribbean franchise. The first in the series had a magic that couldn't be duplicated.
  9. There is a fix for that window problem, the factory wiring doesn't get 14 volts to that motor. Here's what I found with a 2 minute search: http://www.autotrix.net/Product-Passenger-...-Fix-Kit_1.aspx
  10. +1 on www.ls1tech.com
  11. People will buy this car not because it will save them money, they will buy it on principle. I can drive my 15 mile commute everyday and not send a penny to the middle eastern countries that would destroy me? Sign me up.

    Nice work
  13. six-speed manual transmission they made non-z06 hardtops for 2 years - '99 and '00
  14. were they selling it at msrp?
  15. not z06, just the same body style
  16. I've been trying to get a picture like this for awhile now. Not my best work, but I saw an opportunity and I took it. Pics taken at Fort Bliss, Texas - Armed Forces Day 2009 "Death before Dismount"

    Did you mechanically over-rev by downshifting into 2nd? or did you somehow 'push through' the ecu's rev limiter?
  18. One of the dealerships in El Paso will be happy to sell you a v6 for $5k over sticker and an SS for $10k over sticker.
  19. Chevy Nick replied to DSFD506's post in a topic in The Lounge
    People have been crashing LS3 corvettes for like 18 months now.
  20. They feel like it's watering down the exclusivity of the Z06. This car has the same Z06 wide body looks without the LS7, and you can get this with an automatic or convertible.
  21. What's the trick?
  22. is there a way to embed the youtube video player?
  23. I got a laugh out of this: please delete if repost
  24. Z06 guys are pissed about this.
