I think a great deal of us are a little perterbed at some of the recent changes we've seen. What makes it even more difficult for us, is that no one is explaining the reasoning behind those changes.
If we were told a b-pillar was to be put in for crash test safety standards and ultimately less weight, that would make a lot more sense than either not being told anything at all, or being told some off the wall reason that someone here thought up. (I'm using this as an example...please, let's not rehash this topic!!!)
When it comes to this gas cap, it was a beautiful thing. It was changed and there's no finite reason from GM why it was changed. People speculate it was because doors get hit when exiting at the fuel pumps and also because of potential spillage ruining the paint. What if there is a bonified reason why the location was changed??? What if they sat there for weeks contemplating different ways to make it work trying everything in their power to keep it? You all remember Chip Foose (from Kenz's post) talking to the design team about the gas cap location. We have a pic of them talking. Obviously, this was an issue and they even asked his opinion on it........c'mon....Chip Foose....a God amongst men when it comes to anything car related.
Let's just all calm down a little and realize things are done for a reason.....YES, for a reason. I don't understand why they put the lights in the rear bumper. One 5 mph hit and they are gone (not the best idea if you ask me). And, we know how often that happens w/ regular drivers. Heck, I still think they should be integrated into the brake lights. But, for some reason they decided to put them there. I'd like to know why.
Headlights? Don't even get me started. Scott said it and it's been said here a MILLION times they are from Auto Zone.
Everyone, if you don't like something, it's okay to say you don't like it. As i've said before, there's a way to communicate (and this is NOT directed to anyone in particular). Let's just try to be cool to one another.
