Replying to: kcorey (May 18, 2008 2:14 pm) The 09s will likely be more expensive at the outset simply because they are newer. I would expect this to mediate itself in time and for the price to settle back. I am anxious for the EPA numbers to come out on the new engine. I would expect a small increase in highway mpg, probably not much for city though any increase would be welcome. |

| I currently have a true 4 wheel drive truck. I take my truck on the beach in 4 wheel drive. I'm unfamiliar with AWD systems. Would the Saturn's AWD system be able to handle beach sand, or is this just for better transaction in snow, rain etc? | |

I've seen articles that indicate that the Lambda cars are unlikely to get the new 2-mode hybrid system any time soon and yet, the Saturn Vue with the 3.6 liter V6 is getting it: http://www.autobloggreen.com/2008/01/06/detroit-2008-saturn-vue-2-mode-hybrid/ If they can put it in this SUV, why not the Lambdas? They're talking about a 50% increase in fuel economy. That would be awesome.

Replying to: husky92 (Jun 11, 2008 11:53 am) Who says Lamdas will not get it? Seems like the Vue version would drop right in with some mods. Prices will come down but it is hard to sell a hybrid unless you are a prius that is bought for the buyer to feel good about himself. The other hybrids do not sell.

Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jun 11, 2008 9:45 pm) Lots of postings indicating that the 2 mode hybrid won't work in the Lambdas. Of couse the Vue getting it directly contradicts this. Here's one of the postings I was referring to: http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/28/gm-lambda-cuvs-not-going-hybrid-anytime-soon-- - sierra-will/ Prices will come down but it is hard to sell a hybrid unless you are a prius that is bought for the buyer to feel good about himself. The other hybrids do not sell. Gas only hit $4/gallon in the last couple weeks. I would definitely be interested. I know many say it's not worth the extra cost but there are many other reasons. Given the choice of giving more money to Buick and less money to the oil companies and Saudi Arabia, I'm going to choose Buick.
