Now that's what I'm talking about..I need a new daily driver.

Not GM related but more holy **** industry news...

Ford fires CEO Mark Fields.

I am a little shocked at that.

My old man called it a a week ago, he said if the shares don't start to improve and Ford doesn't start turning things around Fields will be gone by the end of the year.

Surprising. All their media acts like they are running right along as the #1 car company in America.

6.2L GMC Yukon/Yukon XL Denali and Cadillac Escalade/Escalade ESV will have the new 10 speed transmission.

Would you think it would be safe to assume we'll see the 10 speed in the next gen full size trucks?

I don't see why not.

...if for nothing else...Ford is doing it.

Are they intentionally delaying it in the Chevy models?

You look at that picture with all of the workers wearing a company shirt and then look at pictures of the workers at the US plant. Quite a difference.

Apparently it's refresh day at General Motors.

Move along GM. Be a leader not the follower. GM is doing good with this formula, sorry just venting. give me the wow!! October model reveals in the 60 and 70's were an event. When that dealer pulled the cover off of the new Chevy's it was eventful. You took it or left it. People, no matter which brand would flock to these. I know, internet has made that useless. It is now appreciated or trashed by the internet. Back then you had a Thursday nite of free drinks and sandwiches to sit around and bash/ defend the car that was revealed. My Dad was invited to these. You had to buy a new Chevy vehicle in the past year or be a very good friend of the dealer. My Dad was both. When the covers flew of those cars it was eventful or Move along. To see the 2nd gen Camaro revealed was a trip! This was going to be the Camaro of the future . The 1st gen was so cool and to do a total wild 69 style was a hard to take. It was found out though really be the right choice. I see the 6th Gen to be in the categories to make cars that will sell, I get that. Come on Chevy, make the 10 year old kid go, I will own that car when I grow up.
