    lol, for an example look at the malibu, accord, camry, and fusion...all 09's...... funny that both the domestics get better mileage??

    funny that the chevy equinox also gets better mileage than the RAV-4 or the CR-V

    weird the 09 cobalt (non hybrid) does better in MPG than the 09 civic (non hybrid)

    or from just glancing that GM has more models that get better than 30 mpg than Honda

        No offense Zac, but based on the fleet of Equinox's that SimplexGrinnell had when I was there, you couldn't pay me enough to trust one of them to get me from Fargo to Moorhead and back. They are EXTREMELY unreliable.....same goes for the Colorado/Canyon.

                  As much as it pains me to say this, I like my 99 Chevy 3/4 ton w/ 265,xxx miles more than I liked my 08 Tundra w/ 0 miles. Not that the Toyota wasn't a good vehicle with more than enough power and good creature comforts...the Chevy just feels more like what I think a truck should feel like.

                  Now, for cruising around, I liked the Tundra better I also liked it better in the snow/ice. But for a "work" truck, it seemed to lack vs. the 3/4 ton....of course comparing a 1/2 ton to a 3/4 ton as a work truck is a poor comparison as well.

                  I'll let ya know how i like pulling something with it, takin the camper to wefest so we will see how it does then...

                      Well if your dads truck was a diesel he should be plugging it in in the winter. Diesel trucks dont like to start in cold weather. I was giving you crap because you were saying that your gas toyota never gelled up. If your gas toyota was gelling up then your doing something wrong.

It was a cheesy and somewhat ignorant video trying to say domestic cars out perform imports in SPEED and "handling". Go read some brochures in your lobby. Do you even own a 320whp car? Do you even run it at the track? Or do you see how much gas mileage and hp/liter it can make and make ricer comments all day long?

                              Last winter was the first winter up here with the new ulsd diesel (15ppm), gels about 15 degrees warmer and a lot quicker than 500 ppm. Even with fuel additives (except Howe's which no longer is worth a damn) still need to plug in now, just fyi. What's the asking price on the truck?

                                    So from the movie in this thread you are arguing gas mileage, power to weight, and towing capacity and gasmileage of an ugly suv? Did you not watch the video? It was a cheesy and somewhat ignorant video trying to say domestic cars out perform imports in SPEED and "handling". Go read some brochures in your lobby. Do you even own a 320whp car? Do you even run it at the track? Or do you see how much gas mileage and hp/liter it can make and make ricer comments all day long?

                                    YES I DID WATCH THE MOVIE AND IT WAS FULL OF COMMENTS FROM IGNORANT FUCKS MUCH LIKE YOURSELF. SO YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT FUEL EFFICIENCY IS NOTHING TO PAY ATTENTION TO WHEN BUILDING STREET CAR MOTOR? WHETHER YOUR JUST IGNORING THAT FACTOR BECAUSE ITS A "RACE CAR" OR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE, BEING EFFICIENT WITH FUEL IS STILL A FACTOR.

                                    POWER TO WEIGHT IS JUST ONE COMPARISON I POINTED OUT. IGNORING POWER PER LITER ARE WE? THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT. YOUR BULLSHIT DOMESTIC COMPANIES COULDN'T MAKE A DECENT LOWER DISPLACEMENT MOTOR IF THEIR BUSINESS RELIED ON IT. WHICH IS FUNNY, BECAUSE THIS IS THE EXACT REASON THEY AREN'T SELLING ANY CARS AND GOING OUT OF BUSINESS.

                                    AND I WOULDN'T TALK ABOUT MY CAR. MY CAR PERFORMS IN ALL CATEGORIES. I BELIEVE ON e85 COMING BACK FROM THE CITIES I GOT 32MPG. WITH 350+ HP. WOULD YOU KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE TO FILL A TANK OF GAS FOR 16 DOLLARS AND HAVE IT LAST 300+ MILES? THAN HAVE IT TRACK CAPABLE FOR AN 11 SECOND PASS? OR ARE YOU TO BUSY IGNORING TO CLEAN YOUR WHITE TRASH MULLET AND TALKING SHIT TO PEOPLE YOU DON'T KNOW ONLINE ABOUT THINGS YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT?

                                        if you're trying to build a high hp car with fuel efficiency in mind, you're doing it wrong.

                                        power per liter? lolololololol thats a pathetic arguement. cobalt SS's and srt4's? 30mpg? what?

                                          Im not saying your high hp car needs good mpg, im saying that its a very poor engineering if you have to bore huge holes and throw nasty amounts of fuel just to make enough power to get out of your own way with your road boats
