I’m in the industry so I kinda have to have faith in it.

As a former C-SRT owner, it was a cool car that had a crappy interior with AMAZING seats. The high bolster seats were great for my large frame, the power was solid, and after I put a canned tune on it I was getting Camry levels of fuel economy cruising the highway... Miss that car

To quote Transformers “Its custom faded”

No what I’m saying is that my old tech is actually doing what the new tech is. There is no reason why an engine with direct injection and a similar power to weight ratio should get the same as something that is archaic. I’ve got 8 spark plugs on a 4 cylinder engine that makes at best 100hp. Same displacement, damn

So answer this, why does my 22 year old Ranger get better fuel economy than the new one? same size motor, half the gears, no turbo...

Ever stop and think that because of the increased tech and how quickly its had to be developed has effected the cost of vehicles? By loosening the noose around the balls of the manufacturers they can take more time to increase the efficiency of their product and it not be glitchy or worse when it hits the market. 

Going back to the Vega, Lordstown has produced several generations of GM compact cars, including the infamous J-body Cavalier, Sunfire, Skyhawk, and the successive Delta platform Cobalt/G5 and current Chevrolet Cruze. At its peak, the plant employed as many as 16,000 Ohioans”

I’d pay  that for Project Binky

And if you are buying one at CarMax or somewhere outside of a GM dealer most wont know what to really look for on that. That’s why I just pull the original build sheet so there is no guess work on if it has X or Y. Things like G80, AP8, Z71 are all kinda standard know if you know what you are looking at. Higher end

That is true, but most people wont look it up. Takes me literally 2 minutes to have a build sheet with everything spelled out in black and white so there is no confusion.

Regarding the Truck Inquiry, it pays to have “friends” in the industry. If a customer is asking me specific questions regarding what is in a certain GM vehicle I have, I can easily pull up the factory build sheet/invoice for said vehicle to answer any peculiar answers.

It’s not stolen, its just permanently borrowed... Also I give it 3 hours and one is broken and another lost, 3 weeks and one is pregnant....

Couple bolts through the floor in the factory locations to custom brackets attached to the skateboard, really no different than building the actual truck.  The skateboard is just a chassis like the traditional ladder frame under a regular truck, just more high tech.

The “wood” trim in the Denali I have to admit isn’t horrible. It’s not over done and fits nicely where used

I sell Chevy and GMC trucks....

If they can read the Stamped tailgate from space good on them, I can be right on top of one and miss it and I sell them

What about the ufo story

Most Acadia owners idea of off-road is a gravel driveway. 

Girl I'm seeing has a custom Wrangler Unlimited and wants this because it looks good. Myself on the other hand want an AT4 Sierra because it not only looks great, but is capable of doing everything I need it to do.

I want that 3 door sooo bad
