Did you get the periscope option?

I kid. We couldn’t get one because the visibility was so poor it made my fiance car sick.

bless their heart, normally it’s hot laps in the passenger seat that make someone queasy

The dash is so tall and the window so small that it has the effect of sitting in the back seat. She was excited to check it out but the test drive was cut short after a few minutes.

I have to say that I am not at all fond of the visibility and driving through traffic sucked as a result.

A C7 isn’t off the table but that wouldnt be until a bit later from the looks of it.

Why the crosscab hate? I mean, I wouldn’t drive one, but who would have thought a major manufacturer had the balls to make a convertible suv? Terrible idea, but good on them for trying

Oh for fuck’s sake just buy the convertible then. Visibility solved.

And it’s all in good fun usually.

I even enjoy some good self depricating humor.

Some people Just don’t take kindly to friendly ribbing

The issue is more so the height of the dash. Gives the perception of being in the back seat apparently.

Also, no, convertibles are a no go

That camber/caster change in the first pic looks like a broken control arm lol

Pretty much the perfect 6th gen

Gotcha. I never got that impression in the few days I had one as a rental. I wonder if maybe it has to do with how tall someone is. I’m 6’2” and the dash was definitely high but not a total bathtub feeling. Probably worse in the passenger seat where you don’t have height adjustment.

That was the main issue. I am 6' and I had driven a couple examples. I was on the verge of pulling the trigger on one and so I brought my fiance along for a test drive.

She’s 5'4" and the seat didn’t have any height adjustment. She started to get claustrophobic and dizzy. She said it was like getting car sick in the back seat.

As much as I liked the car, I wanted something we could both enjoy. Or at least tolerate being in without getting sick.

Because they’re trying to replace every good honest hardworking car with bloated crossovers and SUVs and we must fight them. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in Francorchamps, we shall fight on the highways and byways, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the airport parking garage, we shall defend our cars, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the B-roads, we shall fight on the hooning grounds, we shall fight in the rallycross fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, our cars or a large part of them were subjugated and broken down, then our Empire beyond the streets, armed and guarded by the British Mini, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the new hoon, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”

Damn that’s sweet. Nice color.

Chevy did right on the styling on these and I say that as Mustang fan boy.

Well written. I still want a Murano CrossCab.

And soon it will be on track for touring. Mainly so the organizer can get a shot of the Camaro on driveout tags.

I could tolerate the visibility. Nearly got one myself. But my fiance nearly got car sick unfortunately. Otherwise I would have definitely got one. I LOVED the chassis and the power delivery of the LT1.
