You people just don’t get it. It’s how many of you who aren’t overpaid auto workers will have nonexistant jobs due to the lack of disposable income in the economy.

Anyway, as much as I don’t care for V6’s, I think they are the answer. Today 's DI v6 has better numbers from 3.5 liters than a v8 of 5 liters from fifteen years ago.

But yes GM does suck. Any award they ever win they bought. Who is the only OE to win 2 best engine awards this year? Whose v6 makes more torque than the VQ from less displacement? Who builds the only pushrod engine on the list? GM. Shit they must have paid off everybody.
