    Info: GM to bring back diesel powered car!!!!!

    http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/21/report-diesel-chevrolet-cruze-confirmed-for-u-s/ Hopefully, this doesn't end up like the much hyped 4.5L Duramax that was to be the savior of the SUV and half-ton market. I'm happy VW finally will have some competition in this market. Competition is good...

    New Project Truck

    First off, it's not a Duramax and likely won't ever be. But it is a Chevy diesel. I bought an '86 Military Chevy M1028, a 1 1/4 ton 4x4 Chevy with a 6.2 L and TH400. Got a great deal on it and couldn't pass it up. It is directly from the military, never driven in civilian life and has...

    DMAX plant to go idle

    This isn't good news, but at least they will hopefully still have jobs by late summer. Hopefully Government Motors doesn't kill this one too.
