I've talked to a group of Powertrain test engineers last year up at Laguna Seca testing cars from the Yuma test site. All those test cars were testing new powertrains by putting thousands if not millions of miles on them. That's the process. All test cars have a number code on their windshield and rear window and these test fleet IVR's all have chaser vehicles that are typically Suburban's. You guy's just have to think outside the box and accept the new C7.5 or C8 FE coming. By the way all these cars will be crushed. Remember, all test cars are future product that can't be talked about.

You are so sure you’re correct that you do not see the merit of any alternative opinion. Please, for the sake of the many others in a conversation, try to tone it down and open your eyes. We will all get along better.
