the purpose wasnt to show off the truck, that was more of an after thought, just to say that people are still asking the same old questions and there arent really any new products or vendors that ive noticed, it seems like things have kinda been stagnant.

what did you expect? a boom in aftermarket parts? not many companies are interested in producing parts for a dead platform lol

a dead platform that features one of the most powerful 4 cyl engines on the market, hell they did it for the civic, and thats a POS. why not the cav and fire??

The Civic? The Civic isn't a dead platform. You're comparing apples to oranges here. Even if the Ecotec is one of the better 4 cylinder engines on the market, the Cavaliers and Sunfires were retired 3 and a half years after they first started coming with them. Obviously companies are going to stop concentrating on Jbody cars, and look into producing parts for the new platform that replaced them.

240sx
300zx

silvia
integra
NSX

just to name a few, all of those cars were retired, and yet they still recieve an overwhelming amount of support from major manufacturers...

because unlike owners of those cars, j-body owners are cheap.

Are you serious? lol Unlike the Jbody platform, those cars were actually respected in the tuner scene. Our cars are just cheap entry level econoboxes.

but that wasnt the point brought up by shadowfire, he was basing the lack of support on the fact that the j-body was discontinued, not anything else, i just hate to see a car with soo much potential be ignored like this. its a real drag...
