Thought the same.

There was some banter between Elon Musk and Audis engineers about the EV world. It's just to poke fun. They did the same thing with BMW a few years back

Foreword, Frosty, if this goes bad on me, feel free to say I told you so.

That being said, my third turbocharged vehicle.

that was quick

Blackbirdws6 06-16-2017 09:53 AM

Will it do a burnout?

qwikz28 06-16-2017 09:56 AM

Definitely like the color.

Frosty 06-16-2017 10:06 AM

Dude trust me I'm hoping I don't ever have to say I told you so I don't want to see anybody go through car problems. I was just giving you my opinion based on what I've seen working in the industry. Now does that mean every diesel Cruze is a flaming turd and will give you problems? Absolutely not there are people that have had many many trouble-free miles. I was just throwing in my experience so I wish you the best of luck with it the cruise itself is an awesome car and I hope that you only have to do basic maintenance on it.

It came with two more years of GM power train, which helped sell it to me. After that, I can delete all the emissions stuff which removes most of the reported issues I came across. Sensors, and DEF tank etc

Yesterday when I was filling up I noticed how much diesel fuel has come down in price. Def a win/win for the diesel
Cruzer.

ThoR294 06-19-2017 11:44 AM

What I dont understand is apparently the 6 speed manual gets better highway mpg than the new 9 speed auto??? wtf
