There. We just did. Excuse our French, but the GMC Topkick/Chevy Kodiak pickup by Monroe Truck Equipment is the first real work truck in this industry rag that deserves some enthusiast hyperbole. Build a solid work truck Bill Bolin of Rancho Motors in Victorville, Calif. says four of the nine customers who bought the Monroe conversion last year traded in one-ton duallies. The new toy haulers and horse trailers are heavy, especially those with living quarters. The one tons, while having comparable engine sizes and transmissions as the 4500, don’t have the braking system or the gear ratio to handle the real heavy hauling. Phil Murphy will tell you. Murphy owns an excavation and paving company in Phoenix, Ariz. His smaller 1/2- and one-ton trucks were not doing the job. "In both of them I replaced the rear end, bent and cracked the frames, and went through the brakes, clutch and transmission," he says. "I realized it’s not the truck, it’s what I’m pulling and hauling." Murphy bought himself a 4500 pickup by Monroe and gave it a workout. "I’ve put 9,000 lbs. in the bed while hooked up to a trailer with a forklift on it at 20,000 lbs. and went from Phoenix to Flagstaff," Murphy says. "The truck never broke sweat. I was going up hills at 55 mph." GM added more brawn to the ‘06 models. Four-wheel-drive is now an option, expanding the work possibilities to more rugged environments such as forestry, snowplowing, landscaping, agriculture, tree trimming and utility work. All new 4x4 C4500 and C5500 models feature an 8,000-lb. front axle rating as standard equipment, an additional 1,000 lbs. better than the base axle of the previous year. The ‘06 4x4s also offer an exhaust brake option, which helps the vehicle decelerate without using the service brakes. That’s a huge lifesavings in brake pads and important in preventing overheating during long mountain descents. Add the wow factor The mad scientists at Monroe created the signature eight-foot steel bed with bed panel lines that seamlessly match the contours of the Kodiak/TopKick body. MTE designed a unique subframe for mounting the pickup box to the truck frame, which accommodates a gooseneck or fifth-wheel hitch without extra drilling. In fact, one can be swapped out for the other without invasive surgery. Hitching is easier with the Hitchcam rear-view camera option, mounted directly above the rear receiver, and in-cab flat-screen monitor. The familiar GM 3500 Series interior gets a makeover with brushed aluminum or woodgrain dash trim. The Ultra Seating Package includes leather seats with air suspension and a fold-flat rear seat for the crew cab. See the spec sidebar for more option goodies.
An S10? That may be an overstatement, but the truck’s sloped-hood design and large windshield gives drivers the ability to see objects on the ground as close as 13.8 feet from the front bumper. That’s even better than the forward visibility measurements of many compact pickup trucks. The 53-degree wheel-cut on the 4x2 results in a turning diameter as tight as 38.4 feet — better than a crew-cab dually pickup. Yet at 95 inches tall and proud, you’re staring down any mega pickup or a 79-inch Hummer H2 at a stoplight. |

Cadillac CT6 production ceases January 2020 as part of D-Ham layoffs
Fri, Dec 6 2019General Motors filed paperwork under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act with Michigan's Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity this week, detailing events to come at the automaker's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Starting February 28, 814 salaried and hourly workers at D-Ham, as its called, will be laid off. The 753 workers represented by the UAW will begin receiving offers in January to relocate to facilities in Michigan and Ohio, or buyout offers. As the 4-million-square-foot plant winds down through April 3 to a skeleton crew, the Cadillac CT6 ceases production in January 2020, and the last Chevrolet Impala comes off the line on February 28. The loss of the CT6 represents the end of Cadillac's latest brief, and highly regarded, adventure into flagship sedans. It might also mean the end of the 4.2-liter Blackwing twin-turbo V8 engine, at least for the moment. Both casualties are calamities. The death of the Impala closes the door on a nameplate in production for 52 years since 1957, having started off as a top-tier trim for the 1958 Bel Air known as the Bel Air Impala, once advertised with the line, "Lets you know you're the boss." As part of the new four-year labor agreement with the UAW, GM is keeping D-Ham open to build a new line of battery-electric vehicles, ultimately investing $3 billion and tripling employment to 2,225 workers when fully operational. The agreement described the coming EV as a "van" that would commence production in late 2021, but various reports say what's actually coming is a range of premium EVs in pickup and SUV bodystyles under the program codename BT1. The easy predictions put an electric GMC Sierra and Cadillac Escalade among the EV fold, but not until 2023, according to auto industry forecaster LMC Automotive. Before that, LMC claims an electric van will debut in late 2021, along with a battery-powered rebirth of the Hummer brand in pickup and SUV forms, also in late 2021.Â
Chevy Sail 3 lands in China
Sun, Nov 23 2014Shanghai General Motors took 32 cars to this year's Guangzhou Motor Show, with its Chevrolet Sail 3 leading the way. After putting almost 1.4 million of them into Chinese hands, the third generation of the Bowtie's entry-level sedan wants to "take the nameplate and the segment to a new level." Its new architecture sporting a 1.4-inch longer wheelbase supports a growth spurt of two inches in length and 1.8 inches in width. The exterior also gets "eagle eye-shaped" headlights and "dual-c-element taillights." Under the hood will be either a 1.5-liter DVVT or a 1.3-liter VVT, each of them more powerful and more frugal than previous offerings. Both can be paired with a manual or an automatic transmission, and qualify for listing in China's National Energy-Saving and Eco-Friendly Vehicle Catalogue, as well as a 3,000 renminbi rebate ($490 US). You can read more about it in the press release below, and get more info on the Chevrolet Camaro RS Limited Edition, Corvette Stingray Coupe, Buick Regal GS and Excelle XT also introduced at the show.

The third-generation Chevrolet Sail, named the Sail 3, will take the nameplate and the segment to a new level when it goes on sale nationwide by the end of this year.

Motor Trend reveals 2016 Chevy Camaro as Car of the Year
Tue, Nov 17 2015The 2016 Chevrolet Camaro beat some very steep competition to earn the Golden Calipers as Motor Trend's Car of the Year. The magazine praised the sixth generation's fantastic engines, great handling, and lighter platform. "Our 2016 Car of the Year, the Chevrolet Camaro, is one of the finest driving vehicles in the world at any price," editor-in-chief Edward Loh said, "though its price is well within reach of the average consumer." The Camaro conquered some high-performance challengers to take the victory, including the Audi TT, Mazda MX-5 Miata, and Mercedes AMG GT S. It also bested technologically cutting-edge vehicles like the BMW 7 Series and Toyota Mirai. The latest Honda Civic rounded out the competition. To earn the prestigious award, nine judges evaluated the finalists in six categories: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. The Volkswagen Golf won last year. In an engaging story on Motor Trend's website, it explains what a revelation the new coupe is and that they consider the model the best production pony car ever. The piece is well worth a read. Motor Trend also handed out the Person of the Year honor to Subaru of America President and Chief Operating Officer Thomas Doll. It praised him for the Japanese brand's massive success in the US like tripling deliveries since 2007. "By any measure, the business Tom Doll leads is an outstanding success," editor-at-large Angus MacKenzie said. "And he is the person whose unique vision and quiet leadership made it happen."
