Here's something else I didn''t drive this week, the all-new Nissan Ram, I mean, the all-new Dodge Titan. I am sooooo confused! You can get the scoop on this story here on Straightline.
Shocker of the week came from Chrysler where PR head honcho Jason Vines departed. Vines is easily the most well-liked flak in the business and not merely because his Jack Nicholoson impression is dead-on. Peter DeLorenzo of AUTOEXTREMIST, who knows a thing or three about automotive PR, sees the explanation for Vines ' departure in the arrival of Bob Nardelli as Chrysler CEO. Nardelli doesn't get it on PR.
Check out the Women in Motorsports Blog Carnival at AskPatty.com. Neat idea, Jody! But could somebody please explain to Danica that the topless shot is not what they meant when they asked for a "spread."
"It was, of course, a brilliantidea--why not combine all the frumpy styling sensibility of a mid-1980s Chrysler with the legendarily spotty reliability of a Maserati?" If you remember the object of that statement over at the Amazon.com Automotive Editors blog, you probably also remember such horrors as this and this.
Joe Sherlock went to buy a new Lexus recently. The results weren't pretty. Read all about it at The View Through the Windshield.
"That thing got a Hemi? No, not really." Paul Niedermeyer explains everything at The Truth About Cars.
You may find this difficult to believe, but VW's and sex really do have a lot in common. Don't believe it? Check out Bob Hoover's Blog.
ESPN and ABC will televise all 15 IRL races in 2008, according to FastMachines.com. This is good news. But I have a feeling there won't be many more "spreads" for Danica if she doesn't win number one this coming season.
Dorri Williams has finished replacing the turbo on his wife's aging Audi. He must have done it right because the car gained a full second on the 0-60 mph run before and after. Uh, Dorri, you sure that wasn't a nitrous bottle? Note the great new format for If It's Got An Engine ..., too.
Don't give up on the internal combustion engine just yet, GM's Dan Hancock advises. Read why at GM's FastLane Blog.
What a Hobson's Choice. At Jalopnik, it's either a well and truly clapped out 58 Impala or a yellow Vette. All I can say is, eternity is a long time, buddy.
See ya!
