| Posted: 27 Oct 2010 11:15 AM PDT Would you tune in to NASCAR, not on Sunday race day, but on "Must-See TV?" A report out of Hollywood suggests NASCAR is lending its drama to NBC for "The Crew," a new drama that unfolds with the racing series as a backdrop. From the pen that brought you the short-lived superfriends drama Heroes, Joe Pokaski's new drama will follow brothers who... |
| Cadillac Revving Up To Build ATS Compact With $190M Lansing Investment Posted: 27 Oct 2010 11:01 AM PDT Small cars and Cadillac haven't, historically, gone hand in hand. But they will in the near future, as General Motors is already stepping up work on the Lansing plant where the Cadillac ATS compact sedan will be built. The work entails $190 million worth of upgrades and additions to the plant, including 600 additional workers to produce the car... |
| Jeep Grand Cherokee in Safety Probe Posted: 27 Oct 2010 10:59 AM PDT More than 3 million Jeep Grand Cherokee sport-utility vehicles could be recalled, if an investigation underway determines they are susceptible to fuel-tank problems. In an unusual move, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has asked Ford, Toyota and GM for data on their vehicles to assess the Jeep's potential problem, the... |
| Follow High Gear Media at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show Posted: 27 Oct 2010 08:55 AM PDT Last week, SocialCarNews was the Twitter source for news at the JD Power Automotive Internet Round Table conference in Las Vegas. We brought you discussions live from the conference, just like we'll do next week at SEMA. You'll want to fire up your Twitter viewer in a couple of weeks, too.

| 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show: Honda Electric Car to Make Debut Posted: 27 Oct 2010 08:15 AM PDT Honda will jump into the electric-car and plug-in-hybrid fray at the 2010 Los Angeles auto show with a new EV concept. The automaker also confirmed it will lay out the plans for a new plug-in hybrid platform during the L.A. show, which opens to the media on November 17. Honda's entries into the electrified car world have been hampered by missteps... |
| The TCC List: 12 Cars With Roll-Up Windows Posted: 27 Oct 2010 08:00 AM PDT You might be swayed to spend a lot of money on new-car features--but if you're cheap or scare easily at the thought of big repair bills, can you still get manually operated wind-up windows? Sure you can. It's becoming ever more uncommon, but even though power windows are almost ubiquitous in new cars sold in America, some vehicles still start out... |
| Today at High Gear Media: Cadillac ATS, Chrysler Goes Green Posted: 27 Oct 2010 06:47 AM PDT The 2011 Chevrolet Volt makes its TV-ad debut tonight during the World Series. By the way, did you know it's American? So we hear. [PoliticsAndCars] Can you really get a deal on a car you really want? Lucky you, we've found five vehicles that have become a little more wheely-dealy lately. [TheCarConnection] The 2013 Cadillac ATS takes a step... |
| Five Desirable New Cars, Now Negotiable Posted: 27 Oct 2010 06:13 AM PDT It's all about when you shop. Whether you settle for something that happens to be in your price range because you can't talk the dealership down on the one you really want, or negotiate like Shatner and walk away with a great car for a steal comes down to market conditions when you open the showroom door. And this month, they're good. Unusually... |
| Chrysler To Tap Federal Money--This Time, for Green Cars Posted: 27 Oct 2010 06:00 AM PDT Chrysler may join Nissan, Ford, Fisker and Tesla in winning a share of federal loans to convert old factories to greener-car production. Automotive News reports that Chrysler has applied to the Department of Energy for approximately $10 billion in low-interest loans, to be used for retooling plants. The monies were made available as a part of the... |
| GM Expanding in Michigan for 2013 Cadillac ATS Posted: 27 Oct 2010 05:39 AM PDT GM is expanding an assembly plant in Michigan, where it will build the new small 2013 Cadillac ATS. The Detroit News reports a formal announcement will come today for the expansion.

| Keeping Teens On Parents' Policy Safer, More Affordable Posted: 27 Oct 2010 03:44 AM PDT If you’ll soon have a new teen driver in the household, you’ve probably already given some thought to what vehicle they’ll be driving. But have you thought about insurance? If you haven’t, you might be in for some sticker shock. And you should probably set aside some extra money for it. Like, now. According to... |
