Jul 12th 2008 7:56PM For someone who never makes mistakes, this certainly counts as two. The Avalon more than the SC.

Apr 4th 2008 8:59PM (Insert sarcasm here) Hello, I'm a UAW worker. If I strike, it will obviously help me ensure that I have a future and my children will keep food on the table.

New York 2008: Scion unveils odd-looking Hako Concept {Autoblog}
Mar 19th 2008 4:35PM WTF??? Okay, this has to be the ugliest piece of crap I've seen. Please tell me that one of these Scion lovers won't come on here and say how gorgeous that is.

Mar 10th 2008 10:47AM Anybody notice that after the race there were no cheers? Says something about the interest of the fans in the first Toyota win - even though the press made a big deal of it.

TRD HiLux to make official debut in Melbourne. Honest. {Autoblog}
Feb 28th 2008 3:00PM Heck, that's a Sequoia with the roof chopped off - what an original idea. Oh, wait! That's just another Avalanche clone. Maybe instead of "Hilux", it should have been the "DeLux". It would have fit much better with the TRD packaging.

Four-door Corvette? Pontiac G8 GXP may get LS3 6.2L V8 {Autoblog}
Feb 21st 2008 2:51PM More than likely, this will be a detuned LS3. There seems to be an "unwritten" law that while they may share engines, they will never exceed the horsepower for that level/trim of the Vette. I.E. - the base Vette is 430, nothing with that engine goes above it. The higher trim XLR-V is rated at 443 and an STS-V at 469, but both lie below the 505hp of a Z06. For the last (and possibly best) example, the CTS-V and ZR1 share the same supercharged LS9 engine - however, the ZR1 is rated at around 620 (give or take) and the CTS-V seems firmly set at 550.
