I was really into the idea of getting a Metris as a future family hauler, until I watched Doug DeMuro’s video and realized that the Metris is woefully unprepared to take on the duty of a modern minivan. CRACK PIPE AT ANY PRICE

There’s no way the new Trailblazer weighs ~4200 lbs, that must be maximum load weight.

I’d love to be able to buy bottles of Wendy’s Hot Chili Seasoning sauce.

It was sold in Canada along with McChicken Sauce (mayo) and Filet-O-Fish Sauce (tartar sauce)

How much for just the fenders and hood?

Gale Banks, the godfather of diesel performance in North America, states that you don’t need to roll coal to make power, and in fact you’re just wasting fuel and potentially damaging your engine. Screw these bozos for glorifying a wasteful and harmful behaviour.

So how long do we have to wait for these to start getting written off and wrecking yards start overflowing with 401hp/464tq iron block V8s prime for swaps and turbos?

My first vehicle was a 1993 Mazda B2200 pickup truck that only had rear wheel ABS, on drum brakes no less.

Does America not have Interac E-transfers?

Ugh, why did GM have to give you the geriatric spec car? Bronze paint with faded gold wheels and a tan interior? Yuri from the Straight Pipes pointed out that car out at the track day session.

I count 48 tires replaced in that service log, so they’re only getting ~33,000 miles per set? I understand it’s a heavy vehicle with instant low speed torque, but that seems like a lot of tires for mostly highway driving.

At the 2002 Toronto Autoshow, Ford had a section of their display where you could sit on a stool in front of a green screen and get your picture taken. Your pic would then get pasted into a picture of the new Thunderbird driving on some picturesque coastal highway and printed out for you to take home. That was 18…

That’s too bad you didn’t even get to enjoy it. I appreciate the lunacy of the build and the truck presents very nicely in the pics.

ONE OF US! ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

I voted NP because I bet he bolted on the supercharger, matted it once and promptly pooped himself. He then only ever drove it to fair-weather car shows and cleaned it with a diaper. This is the kind of truck a sexagenarian with bad knees would own because he can’t lower himself into a C6 Corvette.

I doubt GM would cancel the Colorado/Canyon, they sell way too many of them and are shifting to a truck/SUV heavy lineup.

What has me shocked over GM’s decision to kill Holden is that the current Chevrolet Colorado/GMC Canyon only exist because the 2012+ Holden Colorado was already in GM’s portfolio. Sure, it was rejigged for North America and built locally, but GM was able to sell a viable answer to the Tacoma thanks to Holden.

Did that dog lose a bet? Is there another reason for why it looks so...uhh...ugly, there isn’t really a better word. Why do people insist on making poodles look so silly?

According to Wikipedia, the Blackwing V8 (LTA) was only available in the CT6 starting in 2019, and Cadillac sold 30,588 CT6s total in 2019 in the US and China (global production numbers not disclosed).

I almost ordered that shirt, but I have too many dark coloured BS T-shirts.
