Replying to: tired_old_dave (Jun 09, 2007 6:46 pm) Since edmunds is all automotive maybe you can provide a link. You stated the previa was ahead of the times (except for crashworthiness)and this for some reason stuck with me. Just now one digg led to another and revisited the battery contracts for the Volt. My brain cell put the two together. Why the big hood on a Volt. Batteries under the previa floorpan and quick change out motors, one at each wheel. No driveshafts, no hood needed? No differential? then a good computer needed. Should I get back to work or let the brain cell ramble on - decisions decisions. Or just give us an H3 for suburbia with a 3.55 or 3.73 gears and a decal "Not for Use as a Rockclimber".

Replying to: tired_old_dave (Jun 12, 2007 11:10 am)  If you mean a link for them being ahead of their time, that's just my opinion. But I bet there's a link out there agreeing with me! Don't forget the little ICE for when the batteries lose so much charge you can't drive home.... |

Sorry Steve and Tidester if Edmunds has posted the releases about the engineers/Volt and the 4.5L diesel. Saw these at the auto and digg blogs earlier. Volt, posters are already claiming it is a fiasco as far as power sources and that they think batteries are the way to go. Really? H2 gets the general made diesel. Why didn't the general give me a plain belching 1/2 truck decades ago. First diesel ride (back seat of a F350 PS plain 7.3) and the driver said you should see the new turbo versions. We had a high pressure rail, vgt, viscous water heater and pain. No thanks for now and possibly for 2010, 2011, and 2012. |

It seems that this Sunday's Ed Wallace article is not linkable either from the paper or his insideautomotive site. It's another good read if you have been a fan of his, peak oil, and the industry. On a fun note and for one who shouldn't throw stones, count the number of times the "a" word is used on tv or even in the same sentence. I put up with proactive, literally(thank goodness it seems a madtv skit cured that one), basically, and now the "a" word. It came out of my mouth recently and I had to go gargle, "Actually". |
