Granted on the magazine report. But it was to show GM got around the gas guzzler tax.


and the skipshift is not just a pontiac, its on my Vette and my GTO and my sold SS.
and on the Cts-v.
Yep, I know it's on other GMs, and I agree with your point. I could've test driven the car and my reservations would have been laid to rest. But here's the thing -- I LOVE cars, which means a LOT of cars interest me. I just don't have the time to test drive every car that grabs my attention. Plus, I hate dealing with car salespeople. Hence I try to do a preliminary 'weeding out' via magazine write-ups. I'm kinda presuming that most people are like me, but maybe I'm way off-base on that. Maybe most people do in fact take the time to test drive a dozen different cars before making a decision. Of course, now that I think about it, I am kinda impatient when it comes to major purchases. Take my house for instance. It was only the second house my realtor took my wife and me to. She showed us around, was only 5 minutes into her tour, and we said 'blah blah blah, okay enough already, we'll take it. We have places to be'. Pretty bad, huh?
