Replying to: jamessahal (Aug 30, 2005 10:09 am) James, the General Motors 6.0 liter engine is used in several vehicles. I wouldn't say it's a "Cadillac" engine per se. The Hummer may use it but I feel certain the frame is not from the Cadillac/GMC/Chevy. The Hummer is a very wide vehicle, especially the H1. And, the arm rest between the driver and passenger is huge and unattractive to me. Now that the H3 has come out, it may share the under pinnings with another GM model.   I can't imagine an H1 trying to maneuver around London streets much less park one there! I guess the same could be said for the Cadillac ESV (trying to stay on topic!)   I see the FX here and there... not major popular but I see them around.   Mark Replies to this message: nvbanker (Aug 30, 2005 11:16 pm)

A couple of factors are in their favor - the engine is larger and more powerful, and the Cadillac is the rap star's favorite. I consider the Navigator superior in features and engineering, but that's just my opinion - the Cadillac is a good truck.

Hey, I agree, i prefer the Navigator too. I think its more, refined inside and it has better more useful things like the electric seats and tailgate. Isn't the Chevy Tahoe, the same car platform and everything as a Yukon, H2 and Escalade?? I thought it was! Also, after Hurricane Katrina, gulf of mexico, american oil, trouble ahead for fuel prices??? On our news it said that those oil rigs that have been collpasing and thrown into bridges and sunk, that they supply a lot of americas oil. Your thoughts? Worries?

I have to admit, I'm not sure which platforms are under which vehicles or who shares what. I know the Tahoe, Yukon and Escalade share the same platform, not sure about the Hummer vehicles. As nvbanker said above, the Chevrolet Colorado's platform is shared with new Hummer 3.   It seems unusual, for instance, that the Chrysler PT Cruiser shares the same platform as the Dodge Neon. Goes to show the underpinnings have nothing to do with the similarity or looks of the car.   James, yes, the storm in New Orleans is affecting gas prices. I haven't heard about any oil platforms sinking but one did cut loose from it's moorings and hit a bridge.   The president said he will release some of the US strategic oil reserves to off set the loss of oil coming from the Gulf of Mexico. That should help stabilize prices. We'll see.   So, those are my "thoughts and worries"...... have you thought of having your own talk show?   Mark

Replying to: jamessahal (Aug 31, 2005 3:59 am) I think All things related to gas prices would be a better place to discuss gasoline princes.   tidester, host
