Bummer!!! The Malibu not too good for the work commute?

My daily is a 2000 Chevy 1/2 ton 4x4 ext cab. Z71,leather, heated seats,blah. blah. blah. I like it and the little 5.3 takes an asskicking every day and keeps going. This morning the e brake was frozen.(17*deg here this morning) Burnt E brake pads stink.

I used to drive a '91 Nissan Sentra 4-door. Got really good gas mileage and kept me from getting tickets. Even got rear ended in it and it kept on ticking. Well, till I burned a valve on it and I really had enough of it. So I got this.



2000 Z28, 6-speed, Eibach Pro-Kit, intake and exhaust, and a short throw shifter. I'm currently changing up the stereo, but I'll be adding to the suspension soon. It's a REALLY fun car to drive now too. Still a little to fix up on it, but I like it.

Thats a nice step up for sure. Not only will it get better gas mileage but it looks a heck of a lot better than the Camaro. I had a 95 Firebird 3.4 V6 and swapped to the 96 Formula V8 6 speed and got 30mpg on the highway. Much better gas mileage than the underpowered 3.4 V6.

My 05 Subaru Impreza is looking like a perfect investment. The thing is a beast in the snow with the AWD!!! Plus it just rides so nice. I love this car.

...and when the weather is nice we ride these. Mine is the blue ZX 636 Kawasaki.
This was on a trip to the eastern part of the state last summer. Near Lake Chelan. It was about 600 miles round trip (one day) and most of it was like our own little Grand Prix race. Totally nuts!!
