One thing is certain beyond a shadow of a doubt:  gas prices are rising, and they're likely to never go back down.  Between corporate creed, dwindling supply, and the high costs of transporting and refining the crude oil itself, the days of five bucks worth of gas will last me the week are probably never to return...

That's why it's up to Chevrolet and General Motors to make sure that cars are?

Generally I like to bring you stories about upcoming vehicles, Chevrolet and General Motors moves in the industry and other ventures, and things of this nature, and occasionally I bring you a story based on my cynical view of whatever the subject matter may be, heavily laden with my wry sense of humor that makes nobody but myself chuckle - today isn't one of those stories.

This story, as shown underneath where I sign off…

The Indians have already been enjoying the new Chevrolet Spark for over a year, and perhaps enjoying is an understatement.  In the compact vehicles short lifespan, the Spark has, well, sparked a surge of GM and Chevrolet purchases in the second most populated country in the world, and for good reason:  featuring the smallest frame in the current Chevrolet lineup worldwide (rivaled only by the upcoming 2012 Chevy Sonic, slightly larger though it will be?

A few weeks ago, internet sales consultant Jason Rodriguez gave us the first glimpse at the pricing scheme set forth by Chevrolet on the newest member of the upcoming model year's family, the 2012 Chevrolet Sonic.  Set to be the first subcompact sedan or hatchback that breaks the stigma of being a sub par experience, the Chevy Sonic is ready to take the world by storm and make some believers out of those who…

Not much is known about the C7 Corvette, but I would like to shed some light on what I know as of now. 

According to Mark Reuss, president of GM North American, the C7 Corvette will be completely different from the C6 and C5 models.  Although we don't know exactly what it is that will be different, we can rule out several rumors.

Here's what will not change from the C5/C6 to…

Naysayers of the 2011 Chevrolet Volt have condemned the fact that it's not readily available, and Chevrolet won't make that "mistake" twice (I say "mistake" because isn't the release of what is available better than delaying it another year?!).

Because right this very moment you can click here, send our sales team an email, and we can find you a 2012 Chevrolet Volt.  No more games, no more waiting - well, okay, you…

In the automotive world there is a taboo, almost dirty word involving a type of vehicle that has no profit margin, notoriously unappreciated or poor value, and a difficult and once again low profit manufacturing process:  subcompact.

As the United Auto Workers' association and they'll tell you on no uncertain terms that they're a pain to build, they take too long for what they are, and so on.  Then you ask you ask…

When was the last time you took a used 2010 Chevrolet Camaro or a new 2011 Chevy Camaro for a test drive?  If you haven't, you're missing out on what is quite possibly the definitive mix of old school, nostalgia treatment in styling coupled with the power, grace, and fuel efficiency of today.  And yes, you read that correctly:  fuel efficient.

Though it's not the topic of today's blog I'll…

A while back I brought you some pictures about a concept Chevrolet Colorado truck, one that looked like it was straight out of some J. J. Abrams science fiction or even a Michael Bay action flick.  The concept Colorado, the blueprints for the next model reconfiguration, boasted bigger tires, more unique curves, and a do-anything feel and look that made folks at the Bangkok Auto Show's collective mouth water.  Well today I'm happy…
