...deep within that concocted universe that Muhammad and Malvo slept in the early hours of Oct. 24, tucked into their blue Chevrolet Caprice with the sniper perch built into the trunk. They must have slept soundly, since they didn't hear federal agents and police creeping up on all sides, armed with submachine guns. Appropriately, they were seized in the same benign setting in which they had allegedly stalked their victims--a nondescript parking lot off a highway outside Washington. It is hard to imagine what castles of delusion came crashing down when the tactical team smashed in the windows...
...country. This wasn't just a get-to-know-you tour. Kelly-Ennis needs to drum up interest in Saab's redesigned 9-3 sports sedan, which will roll out in the U.S. over the next few months. The Houston native arrived at Saab after a stint at Chevrolet, where her strong relationships with dealers helped the lagging S-10 truck recapture market share...
...Washington sniper's gun finally been silenced? Early Thursday morning, acting on a tip from a motorist, members of the sniper task force descended on a 1990 Chevrolet Caprice parked at a rest stop near Myersville, Maryland and arrested two men sleeping inside. John Allen Muhammad, formerly John Allen Williams, a 42-year-old Gulf War veteran with combat support experience, and John Lee Malvo, 17, are now in police custody. Neither have yet been charged in the shootings; Muhammad is being held on an unrelated weapons charge, Malvo as a material witness. Still, investigators say they believe they have...
...work in other ways. Toyota was the first to experiment with strong, lightweight nanocomposite materials in the late 1980s, and U.S. automakers are starting to move nanocomposites out of the lab and into vehicles. General Motors is using advanced plastics to make step assists for 2002 GMC Safari and Chevrolet Astro vans. The new materials are stiffer, lighter and less brittle in cold temperatures than other plastics. Improvements in strength and reductions in weight lead to fuel savings. The next step is for GM to use nanocomposites in car interiors and bumpers and eventually in load-bearing structural parts, such...
...last year compared with those of BMW, Lexus and Mercedes-Benz, which sizzled with hot offerings. PAG's sales are up so far this year, but its British vehicles still lag in quality: in the most recent "initial quality" survey by J.D. Power and Associates, Jaguar ranked 19th, behind Chevrolet and Pontiac; and Land Rover, at 32nd, stood behind such econo-box makers as Dodge and Hyundai. Fields will have to work his magic mostly by boosting efficiency and trimming costs through further sharing of parts and platforms across the brands--without jeopardizing each one's purebred appeal...
