Better to sell off than to sell out, IMHO.
Im not blaming them for doing it, however Fazm seemed to have implied had GM left the live rear axel and 5 speed in the cars they would somehow have avoided the gov't loan issues.


More of an immature stab than a well thought out suggestion.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
