The GM C1 platform provides the underpinnings for several GM crossovers, including the Buick Enclave, the Cadillac XT5, the Cadillac XT6, the ICE-based Chevy Blazer, the Chevy Traverse, and the GMC Acadia. Each of these crossovers offers front-wheel drive as standard and all-wheel drive as optional. Notably, each of these crossovers also equips a bigger fuel tank when outfitted with all-wheel drive. Now, GM Authority is explaining the reason behind the different-sized tanks.

Here’s Why The GM C1 AWD Crossovers Have A Bigger Fuel Tank

On one of my latest internet scourings, I stumbled upon a video talking about the Mya/June 2024 issue of Car and Driver magazine, and more specifically, the content on the back of the cover. It referenced the return of the Pontiac brand, which was actually, a joke, or more like a love letter to the now-defunct GM brand.

As GM Authority covered previously, the GM Design team recently published a series of images showing off the Pontiac G8 show car, considered to be the brand’s final concept vehicle before GM axed it outright in 2009. Prior to the images recently going online, the G8 show car had never before been seen by the public. Interestingly, the G8 show car also included what appears to be a redesigned logo, leading us to ask – was GM working on a new Pontiac logo?

The original North American Ford Escort was based (somewhat loosely) on its European cousin and was sold from the 1981 through 1990 model years. After that, the mighty Ford Empire turned to its Japanese ally, Mazda, for the Escort's platform and that's where it remained until the final ZX2 Escort coupes were sold here as 2003 models. I've neglected those early Mazda-based Escorts in this series up until now, so here's one found in a Colorado car graveyard recently.

The Chevy Silverado 1500 is hugely popular, and as a result, GM assembles the light-duty pickup in no less than three locations – the GM Oshawa plant in Canada, the GM Fort Wayne plant in Indiana, the GM Flint plant in Michigan, and the GM Silao plant in Mexico. Meanwhile, the Silverado HD is built at the GM Flint plant in Michigan and at the Canadian plant as well. For the most part, the assembly process at these four facilities is pretty much identical – but not entirely. In fact, Chevy Silverado units built at the GM Oshawa plant receive a different paint application process than what is used at the other three facilities.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

Transmissions matter a lot when it comes to diesel trucks. That's because pulling power isn't just limited by the power and torque of the engine, but also by the strength of the transmission responsible for delivering that power and torque to the wheels. As a result, most diesel truck owners want to know that their truck has a solid transmission behind their engine, especially if heavy towing is a part of the equation.
