  1. You might have some issues with the height of that intake :). That being said, I have read many articles about these "destroked" LS motors at high RPM - kind of cool. Keep in mind though, the LS7 redlined at 7000+. You don't need to go small cubes to do it (LS7 is 7.0 liters)

     

    I turn 7000-7200 while racing in my G8.

  2. Wut?

     

    Another shooting that fills every channel just in time for elections. Meanwhile people are too busy listening to what the media tells them and More and more Syrians come into the US

  3. I shot over 3000 rounds of tula 9mm through my XDM when i had it. No failures, and wasn't any harder to clean than other store brands.

     

    Freedom munitions is probably the best deal on quality ammo if you don't want to reload.

  4. Geesh. Id stay away from the Buicks altogether if you have to look at 12+...those are still new enough where they will probably be saying the same things about them in 5 years...."stay away from the 15 and earlier ones" LOL.

     

    I'm daily-ing this 15 Rav4 and its everything you have mentioned you are looking for. gets 28mpgs combined and I dont mind it for being FWD. Ours is a lease being a 15 and all, but you might find a slightly used one for around your price. Inside is certainly comfortable, good features...not a terrible look to them, and sitting up like a slightly taller car is kind of nice, especially with winter coming. Odds are you would find AWD though...as it seems these base 2WDs are all lease specials ;)

     

    There is a reason why I'm a GM tech but drive a Holden and a Toyota.

  5. Why's that? Are the '12+ that much improved/different?

     

    6t70 had numerous issues especially wave plate failures that if left go for too long will ruin the transmission. 2010 and older.

     

    3.6 had timing chain, oil consumption, and fuel system issues 2010 and older
