I like how it now says, "Auto Crash Avoidance ON" or something like that. They made the truck make since.

Looks good to me, but I'll admit there are some spots that seem oddly empty. The first hill is oddly empty, then directly after that there seems to be a portion whose sole purpose is OnStar product placement? Agree that the environmental chambers seem empty, too, apart from the very cool wind tunnel effect. Maybe when you're on the ride the sheer visual stimulation of it all makes up for the fact that nothing's happening in these parts, but...

While I'm not sure how much they could/couldn't have done with the hill, I will say the GIANT WOM logos on either side of the hill were a nice touch. Didn't notice them until a second viewing.

meh. pretty, very modern and tron like. all I can think is how awesome if it were tron ride, rather than another car ride. Test track one..meh.. test track track two...slightly more visually appealing...meh. I get that I am not the demographic as a woman, but.. I just don't get car rides.Here are a few of my better on ride pics. They are a bit blurry, but still, not too shabby...

Oh, no...there's already confusion?! I think I do see the disconnect as the ride audio does say "Welcome to the Sim Track." Maybe it should have been renamed Sim Track...?
I'm not criticizing, but this disconnect may stick with this refurb. Heck, it's certainly happened before..."Welcome to Mars!"
Maybe the pre-show will clear it up...? It must...

Wow. Super impressed. I don't see how anyone could not like this.

I'm going to WDW in 9 days and I am so excited to ride this now! My only complaint is that stupid truck! I never liked it on the old one and I was hoping they would take it out for the new one, guess not. But, that's my only complaint

Previously I had talked about there being no audio in the outside portion, but in the InsideTheMagic, it sounds like engine noise was added. I could be wrong though. I still think it needs a pumping techno score, but engine noise would be better than nothing.
I think they should put some concept car models in the center of the outside loop where current GM models used to sit in a circle.
I'm actually not understanding any of the complaints of "not enough detail", really. Especially on youtube. the only detailed scenes before were the environmental chambers and the barrier test. Everything else was an open, dark warehouse. There's pretty much 100% more to look at now.

The parts after the environmental chambers already had props. Before that there was nothing, it was essentially a big open warehouse. From actually riding it in person, the visual detail is full throughout. (until you get outside, of course).
