Whois & Analysis for chevymalibuforum.com

The Chevrolet Malibu is a mid-size car manufactured and marketed by Chevrolet from 1964 to 1983 and since 1997.

The Malibu began as a trim-level of the Chevrolet Chevelle, becoming its own model line in 1978.

Originally a rear-wheel-drive intermediate, GM revived the Malibu nameplate as a front-wheel-drive car in 1997.

A sedan (American, Canadian, Australian, and New Zealand English) or saloon (British and Irish English) is a passenger car in a three-box configuration with A, B & C-pillars and principal volumes articulated in separate compartments for engine, passenger and cargo.

The passenger compartment features two rows of seats and adequate passenger space in the rear compartment for adult passengers.

The cargo compartment is typically in the rear, with the exception of some rear-engined models, such as the Renault Dauphine, Tatra T613, Volkswagen Type 3 and Chevrolet Corvair.

It is one of the most common car body styles.

A battery electric sedan such as the Tesla Model S has no engine compartment, but a front cargo compartment and a rear compartment for cargo or optionally for additional passengers.

The fuel economy of an automobile is the fuel efficiency relationship between the distance traveled and the amount of fuel consumed by the vehicle.

Consumption can be expressed in terms of volume of fuel to travel a distance, or the distance travelled per unit volume of fuel consumed.

Since fuel consumption of vehicles is a significant factor in air pollution, and since importation of motor fuel can be a large part of a nation's foreign trade, many countries impose requirements for fuel economy.

Different measurement cycles are used to approximate the actual performance of the vehicle.

The energy in fuel is required to overcome various losses (wind resistance, tire drag, and others) in propelling the vehicle, and in providing power to vehicle systems such as ignition or air conditioning.

Various measures can be taken to reduce losses at each of the conversions between chemical energy in fuel and kinetic energy of the vehicle.

Driver behavior can affect fuel economy; maneuvers such as sudden acceleration and heavy braking waste energy.

A mod (short for "modification") is an alteration where someone, usually a player, takes the code of a video game and changes it.

Mods may range from small changes and simple tweaks to completely new games made within a video game.

An Internet forum, or message board, is an online discussion site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages.

They differ from chat rooms in that messages are often longer than one line of text, and are at least temporarily archived.

Also, depending on the access level of a user or the forum set-up, a posted message might need to be approved by a moderator before it becomes visible.
