They are still Testing, saw a mule today!

I saw one driving west on 18 towards state road 31 today near my hometown. I wanted to follow it but my boss wouldn't turn the truck around:(. The last time i saw our new camaro in the flesh was 2006 at the INDY 500. I was having a crappy day, but My day instantly got better, nothing but smiles after I saw it.

Looks like the mules will recieve no break until the deadline! Keep up the hard work GM

LOL; I don't blame you; I'd have done the same. If I were around where they tested a lot, I'd have my Rebel with me all the time.

at one given time they were. and then decided the benefit wasn't enough over what the V-6 had to offer.

Why would they be testing a transmission? I'm happy with 6 speeds across the board, aren't you? Maybe they were testing the LSA...(wishful thinking)

Do you mean test or refine the A6? I remember one of the Lead Engineers (or someone along those lines) saying that they weren't too happy with the 6.2L performance and that he thought there was more tuning left in the A6. Maybe that's whay you're saying... I'm sorry if I'm wrong

Like I mentioned above. For me, six speeds are great, and I wouldn't want more other than I think, personally, there isn't much of a benefit. I like your wishful thinking
