The Detroit Auto Show opened up with the North American Car and Truck of the Year awards , which was questionably awarded to the Chevy Malibu and the Mazda CX-9. Today the EyesOn Design awards presented four awards for design excellence and at least three of the four winners made sense. The award for the best production car went to the Cadillac CTS-V , which is very deserving. Also deserving is the BMW X6 , which won the best production truck. The best concept car went to the Cadillac CTS Coupe . The oddity was the best concept truck, which went to the Chrysler ecoVoyager . Calling the ecoVoyager a truck is like calling a dragon a virgin. galleryPost('cadillacctsvdasexterior', 3, 'Best Production Car: Cadillac CTS-V'); galleryPost('bmwx6exterior', 3, 'Best Production Truck: BMW X6'); galleryPost('ctscoupeexterior', 3, 'Best Concept Car: Cadillac CTS Coupe'); galleryPost('chryslerecovoyagerexteriordas', 3, 'Best Concept Truck: Chrysler...

newVideoPlayer("VinesVideo_gawker.flv", 475, 376); We give Chrysler PR main man Jason Vines a lot of credit -- probably way too much -- but it's because once in a while he's able to deliver from his ADD-adled mind some truly amazing attempts to break through the clutter and cacophony of noise that is automotive public relations. Whether it's fueling the fire of the " Muscle Car Wars " (coming soon to a Woodward Avenue near you!) or coming to work dressed as his favorite sexual fantasy , Vines certainly doesn't act like other auto PR bosses. The newest example is the e-mail we just received with a video revealing some sketches of the automakers Detroit Auto Show concepts for the Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep brands. The video stars Vines, Chrysler's chief product man Frank Klegon, chief design man Trevor Creed and Sandy Fraser, the real boss running the show over at Chrysler PR. The video is a mix of schlock and the usual Vines shtick, and was executed...
