  1. Because we're all worried that you're worried. :shades: That's not a lot of carbon for a motor with 163,000 miles and has run the Baja recently. Can't be any worse than the Vortec's that need pistons and rings with less than 50k on them.

  3. Their website says they're on order, not in stock yet?
  4. You're a total wast of space. "P71 lite" isn't much to strive to be. Or, maybe you already hang out in Matt's grandma's basement?
  5. There you go, using that silly "logic" thing again. :shades:
  6. At least you consistently prove what a troll you are. Also,the word is "barely". Moron. Take your anti-Ford crap with you and crawl back under your bridge. "Look everybody! GM might put a more powerful engine in their aged rental car platform! Huzzah!" :blah:
  7. Extended Service Contract for the win! Doesn't matter if it's a CVT in a Freestyle or ANY Cadillacparts, etc. If you're going to keep it past the warranty prepare to pay. Go price struts for a Caddy with MagnaRide. And that's just one example. Auxiliary heater unit (size of an old lunchbox) for a diesel G-series van: $1800.00 plus labor. Next week we're putting an $1825.00 transmission in a 98 S-Blazer. With a belt, idler arm and labor I'm guessing about $2400-2500.00 on a 13 year old beater.
  8. Yeah, but they better figure out how to get them to stop eating cam chains. I've also talked to several customers that stepped down from a Suburban to a Lambda who are not satisfied, mostly men.

  10. Exactly. I haven't seen one article that claims the CURRENT Mustang is a worse daily driver that the bloated, craptastic outward vision Camaro. In fact, it's a good bet more Mustangs are daily drivers than the current Camaro. None of our customers use the Camaro as their primary vehicle. In fact one of our UPS drivers traded his for an Avalanche because the Camaro sat in the garage most of the time.
  11. Let me see if I have this right, Ford is the kid in Jaws with the cardboard fin on his back and Navistar is his little brother? " He made me do it!"

  13. Raptor Competition? 1:Only if the word "Concept" gets removed. 2: They don't F.U.B.A.R. it.
  14. Can that shifter look more tacked on? And shouldn't it be on the column in a PPV?
  15. No, you should compare the GM 6.2 to the Ford 6.2. They both are only offered in limited configurations and will probably sell in similar numbers. The EB will be offered in a wider range of configurations. Contrary to the "internet experts" GM doesn't sell gobs and gobs of 6.2 half tons. 90% of the 6.2's at the dealership I work at are in an SUV, Escalades and Yukon Denali's. Face facts folks, the 5.3 is the predominent small block in GM's half tons. I'd like to see how the 5.0 fares against the 5.3, I'm guessing pretty well. PS: if you thought the 5.3/3.42 combo sucked try 3.08 gears! That's how GM gets that 21 mpg highway on the sticker.

  17. Gee, look who dragged out the 'ring. RJ comment in 5,4,3... The word is "defense", troll. it's still a Korean turd. I order parts for these boxes, I know.

You better tell the dealers in the link that. Four 2011 V8 trucks listed. No, those trucks aren't on the ground yet but once they're listed there they are usually 2-3 weeks out.
  20. I was referring to one that actually applies to cars in the US. I don't see a lot of Daewoo recalls during the course of my work day. We just got our first Cruze a few weeks ago.
  21. That was quick! First recall. Noisy front suspension, have to soak the rubber strut mounts with silicon spray.
