I thought the V8 was going to be a 6.6 like the L8T?
They bumped it up 0.1, so people could call it a 409? or so kids laugh at six-seven?
If GM by miracle of good sense gives us a V6, can it be a...

Yeah, rehash thread. Agree with the earlier quote about 'you can sell an old man, a young man's car'. Trick is, it is still an old man's lux GT. Track times with high trims are still hiding...

I'm basically thinking the XT5 and 6 would make more money with a small 8, it's not about Nascar. They should make easy V8 money where it's easy (1/2 tons), and keep a 350 out of the Chevy...

Saving a buck is why they want to give you a 6.6, to re-use existing cranks when they really need to give you a 427 or even 440. Don't cheer an incremental bump.

Current vehicle design is hideous. It's a better idea for a Traverse front. A low price full-size unibody has a better chance, if it looks okay to suburb dad.
