FenwickHockey65's Great Thread of GM Knowledge
This is a thread specially for FenwickHockey65 to talk about all things GM and of course to answer questions. :D
Thanks to mike for the idea! :thumbsup: |
Yay my own thread! :D
|
Now we have our own spot to praise the GM God and be reminded of how unworthy we are.
|
Haha. Well if anyone has questions I'll do my best to answer. I'll use this to post random GM stuff that doesn't require their own threads too.
And now my PM inbox won't be overflowing every week. :laugh: |
Ok my question when id the Equinox up for the refresh I recall 2014 but I have not seen anything?
|
The Theta-II crossovers were indeed rumored to be MCE'd for the 2014MY but it doesn't appear like that's going to happen. It might have been pushed back to 2015, or GM might have decided to cancel the project as a whole as the Equinox/Terrain are scheduled to move to the D2XX platform in the near future.
That move to D2XX will also bring about a slight size reduction so if you're liking how roomy the Theta-II models are you might want to think about picking one up. |
My question for you is:
Where do you get all your info from? I've seen your posts all over this forum and you definitely are in the know. |
I'm a staff member at GMInsideNews.com, so I spend a lot of time monitoring various automotive media outlets for GM-related stuff. Sometimes we get to hear about certain things before others and that helps a lot too.
Also, my dad worked for GM for 30 years in various assembly and manufacturing capacities, including building 2nd and 3rd gen F-bodies at Norwood Assembly. So because my family has pretty close ties to the company and still derive some income from it, I've kinda taken it upon myself to help out in any way I can, mostly answering people's questions about current and future product. |
Fen,
First, thanks for all the great inside news, tips, and info you provide to the Camaro5 community. I've seen the spy photos of the new Tahoe and Yukon, when do you expect to see them officially revealed? |
Yay Fen! Now everyone can bombard you with GM questions :clap:
|
Fen :bow:

As you said, the IVERs are out and about a lot these days. Can't tell a lot from the camo but GM is doing some pretty interesting things with LED DRLs on them, particularly for the Yukon. |

Excellent! This is going to be a great thread. |
Ah, when will GM bring back monte carlo?

Neverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Actually, someone's trying to start a rumor that the sub-Camaro RWD sports coupe Reuss wants to build could be named Monte Carlo. Which makes little to no sense whatsoever. |
I just want a luxurious high powered rwd two door car totally keyless and a comfy ride.more like a daily driver street brawler.
|
Uhh well...
http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog....oupefd2011.jpg :laugh: I know what you mean though. I doubt we'll see one for a while, if ever again. I will say this: GM seems hell bent on doing at least something RWD again. There's a lot of chatter about Alpha and possibly developing a flexible, scalable RWD platform below Alpha. |
I'm still on the fence with the styling of that cts. Something about it just didn't catch my eye. Chevys seems to be a little cheaper to have worked on at the stealership as well.
|
When can we expect to see higher end versions of the Stingray? Something equivalent to the Z01.

The Z51 is the higher end as of now. |

They're coming. GM's probably working on the engines as we speak. For now I'm sure they're just trying to get the Stingray/Z51 models into production. Quote:

Woops...typo...I meant ZR1. Sigh
I guess my question is...will it be 1-2 years before we see one? |

Speaking of high performance Vettes, do you think the Gen V LS7 replacement will be a 427? (Please say yes :lol:)

Forget that. Go for the gold and get your wife to believe that that 2014 Z/28 is really your 2010 SS.
