read me
Just doing my intro here- I am 32 yrs old. Been involved with the family businessMelrose T-Topsmanufacturing Corvette parts and racing Corvettes and other chebbies for most of my life. I am a chevy guy a heart butmy love for the bowtie in recent years has been slowlydiminishing due to General Motors designs, visions, and decisions, or lack thereof. As I get older and my needs change (sometimes more rapidly due to the recent fuel crisis) Ihave had many questions for GM/Chevy but nobody to ask or to voice my opinions to. I am hoping I can join up with you all here andvoice my opinions in hope of some GM suit reading it one day. </P>
I have many complaints with GMrecently but the one that drove me here was the lack of understanding with GM's unapparent need to produce a fuel efficient car that will compete with VW TDI, prius', and Civic Hybrids. Why am I so concerned you ask. Three reasons- one; I Work 40 miles from home, two; I think the gas crisis is here to stay, three; it concerns me that Chevrolet fails to see the hugesales possibilities associated with an affordable high mileage car in their fleet. I checked into it and unless I am wrong I see nothing on their burners involving a diesel powered compact. Chevrolet has bragged about having 6 or so cars in their current fleet that get 30 mpg, but I am sorry that's nowhere near the 50 mpg the aforementioned cars a re getting.</P>
I am out for now. I 'm tired. I'll check back in the morning. I have a life with two wonderful kids so forgive me if it takes a little while to post replies.</P>
Later Chris</P>
