Sorry GM, I’m not buying it!
For the past few weeks, GM has been plastering the Internet with their advertisement ” 230″. Rumor had it that GM was ready to release information on a soon to be released new vehicle. The big announcement was to arrive today, August 11th. On my drive in to the office this morning, the announcement was already out on the radio. GM didn’t have a new car to announce, instead they were anxious to announce what “230″ meant. It was the miles per gallons projected for the new Chevy Volt. I am not sure if this is a true measurement, but I know bigger questions are out there.
Now I like cars and technology, but I just don’t get where the Volt fits in. GM says that most people drive less than 40 miles per day. So they target 40 miles of travel and oh, by the way, here is a gas engine just encase you don’t make it back home.
The tech problems are fixed.. Woo Hoo!
" I am going to do the exact same thing!"
Thanks to some hard work by Celine and our software provider, we are finally back online and working again. our software has been upgraded, but it will mostly look and feel like it did in the past. You will notice some new safety features that will help to reduce unwanted listings.
Some major changes to imotorlist.com are on the way. Thanks again for your patience.
What will we see at future car shows?
1964 buick Sport Wagon
Did you ever think you would see a Station Wagon turned into a hot rod? Me neither. Like most people born in the 50s, 60s and even early 70s, station wagons were like part of the family.
My dad owned a 69 Mercury Montego MX wagon. It was a pale yellow with gold vinyl interior. We were a one car family for a long time and that car was used for grocery shopping, vacations and everything in-between. It was our primary car until the late 70s when it was relegated to back-up duty and daily driver of my two older brothers. Both took their toll on that car and by the early 80s it had run its course. My brother sold it for my dad in the early 80s and it ended up with a young family.
Speed, Luxury… what would you buy?
As the kids grow up it’s finally a possibility for me to own a “nice” car someday soon. Although it still may be a year to two away, I started thinking about which car I would really want. No need to carry 4 or 5 passengers or to have 4 doors, simply get what I want to drive.
Obviously if price were no object, I might be looking at a Ferrari Modena 430 Spyder or possibly a Lamborghini Gallardo LP550. I could get by with either of these. The reality is my budget is much less than that.
We are having some technical difficulties…
I guess you can say that we are having some technical difficulties at Imotorlist.com.
Last week we upgraded our classified software server. Unfortunately that has created a string of system errors that can not easily be fixed. Although not planned at this time, we have decided to upgrade our classified software system. We hope to have the upgrade completed by August 10th. Thanks to all for your patience.
Imotorlist.com started in early 2005 by me, Warren. My goal was simple; it was to bring a low cost, online, classified offering to the internet and to create an online meeting place for car enthusiast. Unfortunately I had no HTML skills and not much money to invest.
