On his first post in this thread I thought mgescuro was being a little over the top but he does have somewhat of an argument.

First I was thinking that if you make an engine more than good enough for Cadillac and put it in the Chevy also then what is wrong? I guess at some point an Equinox owner might come along that is a car freak like all of us and say to the Cadillac owner:

"Nice suv, what engine does it have?" and he might say "the base 3.0L V6" and the Chevy owner will then say "Nice engine uh?, I've got the same one in mine!"

How's the SRX owner going to feel? Regardless of how nice the motor is he's going to think he's got a Chevy motor in his Cadillac and he might just have paid too much. He might even start to wonder how different the 2 vehicles are and think he got ripped off.

Why not give the Cadillac motor something extra? Hopefully once GM gets all their motors out of the dark ages they will start to do this. Perhaps in the next generation of vehicles when ALL the engines and transmissions are already of the latest design and technology (at least meaning no 4-speeds or OHV Chinese made value motors) in ALL the GM vehicles they can work on providing the newest features and engine gadgets on the Cadillacs first and let them trickle down to the other brands. And as they trickle down the Cadillac motors should already be getting something newer and better.

Why get personal anyway? Just block him if you don't like his views.
