In an effort to keep the wheels of (re)invention rolling, General Motors has released plans for a "72-Hour Sale", which starts today and runs through July 6. By our calculations, that's considerably longer than 72 hours, but we're going to give GM the benefit of the doubt and assume they mean business hours. Besides, calling it a "144-Hour Sale" wouldn't be quite as catchy.

To drive home the "72" theme, GM is offering shoppers a shot at 0% financing for up to 72 months (see what they did there?). There are two small caveats: to get that deal, you'll need to be a "well-qualified buyer" (i.e. meet certain credit requirements), and you'll need...

More owners of the Infiniti G37 would recommend it to a friend than owners of any other model.

That’s according to data released earlier this month from the marketing research and consulting firm AutoPacific. For the first time this year, as part of its annual New Vehicle Satisfaction Survey, the firm asked “Would you recommend your new vehicle to a friend or relative?”

Overall, 95 percent of G37 owners said they’d recommend it to a friend or relative. The editors at TheCarConnection.com really like the Infiniti G37 as well; we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to our driving-enthusiast friends who want a luxury sedan or coupe and place the...

Or the spirit of GM's genius engineer from the early 1900s, anyway, seems to be burning brightly in the R&D laboratories of General Motors. Automotive News explained that GM has now revealed more impressive technical details of its in-development 4.5-liter Duramax diesel V-8, to be installed in its full-size pickups (Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra) and some SUVs (Perhaps Suburban, Tahoe, Yukon, Yukon XL) next fall. The engine promises to take no more space than the 4.8/5.3-liter smallblock gasoline V-8s it supplants while yielding efficiency gains of 25 percent. GM's claim of identical real estate for the new engine is remarkable, given...
