Replying to: dallasdude1 (Nov 30, 2008 3:29 pm) Hmm, I've never heard that before. I finally saw my first Tahoe Hybrid that wasn't on a dealer lot the other day. Where is all the noise coming from? Electrical Relays? Or the trans setup, or could it be low resistance tires? The Hybrid Tahoe is interesting with the 20mpg achievable city rating, but the reduced tow rating (6,000lbs won't cut it for me) and huge price just isn't worth it IMO, unless of course gas goes well north of $5/gal. Will Ford or Chevy just give me a diesel Suburban or Expedition! I'd bask in my diesel torque glory and never bad mouth a Ford or GM v8 again:) |

ENRON and the GOP were in bed together. Your hate for the UAW is no secret and you have yet to admit that they have built the greatest model of them all, the American middle class. Admission is the first step to recovery.

Replying to: dallasdude1 (Nov 30, 2008 4:30 pm) What about their cars? Have they been dumping for the last 20 years and never been caught? Why can they sell them here in the U.S.? Could it be they are better than anything the Tiny 3 build? I thought you had faith in America. The American consumer is smart to buy great products despite their origin. Who knows? In the long run, American Cars can become first rate again. We will wait and see. Regards, OW |

Replying to: dallasdude1 (Nov 30, 2008 4:18 pm) To give the UAW credit for the middle class is highly ridiculous. They may have contributed to a small exent, but it is 2008, not 1940, and now they are helping destroy it. Today Gettelfinger was in the press exclaiming about how critical it was to give the bailout money to the D3. The leeches sucking the golden goose dry are concerned about their goose!
