I fully expect Trump to start making demands that production of cars move out of Canada soon enough. After all, can’t have us Canadians stealing any jobs either. I figure it will happen when he realizes the Hellcat has a maple leaf heart.

Off topic: Why does everyone assume Trump is going to be POTUS for 8 years? Seriously, just because many do go two terms doesn’t mean he automatically is. And people call me a pessimist.... 

Yeah, sorry but I’m not buying what he is saying above, or at the very least, how everyone here seems to be interpreting what he is saying above. I fully expect that when the Bronco is released, it will be as “completely different” from the Everest as the North American Colorado is from the Aussie/world Colorado is. …

The 2018 Terrain, which is the dressed-up, badge-engineered version of the Chevrolet Equinox,....

I am really beginning to wish that all these companies Trump feels he needs to call out for starting manufacturing outside the U.S. (and, I am waiting for him to start bullying GM/Ford/Chrysler/Honda/Toyota for manufacturing in Canada) to start calling his bluff. The reality is he nor Congress can impose any of these…

I agree with you that concept vs production, the Trans Sport and it’s siblings were definitely a let down design wise. I remember when these came out, going back to my old issue of Motor Trend and just shaking my head at how the production was just a passing glance to the concept. The funny thing is, GM could have…

Agree to disagree on the Mustang/Focus films. The TG version was pretty good, and had the advantage of doing it way befor GT did. The GT one came off as more of the same nonsense they’ve been playing up of Hammond being a want-to-be American, and trying for yuks and falling down hard. I came away from the spot…

4th Gear: Well, unless Toyota is planning on building a modern version of this:

Well, if all things are being considered equal, I’d much rather have a Sonota than a Camry, because a) the Hyundia is likely to be better equiped at that “same” price and b) it’s not a boring-ass Camry. I haven’t seen the new car yet, but I don’t doubt that it will be as yawn-inducing as the current car. Even if…

That is a sad bit of news about the TG track. Someone should file a historical site petition and throw a spanner into the council’s plans. If their Heritage Society is anything like ours here in Canada, they will have that locked down in no time, to be forever used as a airstrip/race track :)

What “truck” stuff are you sacrificing again vs your Frontier? The only thing I saw that you are giving up is the ‘sensation’ that you’re driving a truck and not something else. Otherwise, for a wide swath of the truck buying market, the Ridgeline does everything and more that they require it. Basically, unless you…

Well, I wouldn’t count the military out of the group of people with stupid ideas that screwed up a program. The fact that the Marines “HAD” to have a vertical-take-off just bungled up the works quite a bit from what I recall reading. Also, lots of Generals and Admirals like to through out idiotic ideas if they think…

It is my understanding that the number of SS sold is as much a lack of buyers as it is a lack of inventory. GM is ‘slowly’ using up the volume they were supposed to chew through with the G8 before they axed Pontiac. That said, I don’t get why they don’t offer a higher spec car using a variation of the HSV Senator…

Yes, just like GM to bring over something we want, but without the options we want, then go “see- no one wanted it” and go back to the usual crap. At least the 1st Gen Cruze was alright, though it too suffered from a weak engine, just like the new one does. Seriously, you have 1.5T with 170hp and 2.0T with 256hp,…

I buy sedans. I know other people who buy sedans. Yes, there are a lot of (deluded) people who buy crossovers, mostly for the ‘safer high ride height’ (ugh). I will mourn the eventual passing of sedans in favour of crossovers like I am mourning the slow death of the manual transmission in pretty much everything.

I too really like the look of this car. I liked the looks of the current gen Regal too, but his is a great leap forward in styling. With 2 exceptions: I’m mildly disappointed that the small triangular panel behind the rear doors isn’t a window given it’s size (yes it would be tiny but black plastic can’t look…

Technically no, there isn’t. And yet “The News” was far more entertaining than “Conversation Street” ever seems to be. I’ve watched all 3 episodes, and while they have some bright spots, it isn’t coming off as well as I would have expected, given that these 3 have been doing essentially “this” for the last 15 years…

Well, I gave up on Ferrari a long time ago (not that I can afford any one of them, even used, but that’s besides the point). Between Ferrari’s over-the-top pretentiousness and frankly schizophrenic styling, not to mention their abandonment of the wonderful gated manual transmission (okay, not so good to use, but…

The Camaro SS rims work really well on the G8. I’ve seen more than a few for sale online that have this swap.

Well, they pretty much are different cars. They may share a few parts, but look completely different and share almost no body panels (though you could probably swap between the two in a couple areas). They are about the same as a Lacrosse is to a Regal to each other. The Montana LWB vs SWB - one is just a few…
