I'll keep buying GM unless they start having problems like Toyota. I don't expect to need a new truck anyway soon though, my old 93 GMC still runs like new even if it does have 182,000 miles on it.

You are the exception....my dad's GM blew in 3 years.Originally Posted by DONW
And they are 72.5% corrupt government now....that alone is enough for me.
Complaint filed with the FTC
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/op...-92788939.html
Treasury officials put $17.4 billion of the $49.5 billion in an escrow account, which required GM to obtain Treasury’s approval before making withdrawals. Since the repayment described by GM head Ed Whitacre in the television spots came from this escrow account, the government approved the withdrawal for that purpose.
In fact, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner issued a statement praising GM's repayment "in full" and cited it as evidence that the Obama administration's economy recovery progam was working as intended for the automaker.
CEI said in its complaint that GM's ads sought to make consumers think the company has returned to profitability when in fact it has not. (The company reported last month that it lost $4.3 billion in the second half of 2009).
Robbing Peter to pay Peter. Gotta love it!
People all over this country are disgusted with GM and the liar that is its CEO. The fallout from this is far from over for them.
Got a 90 Chevy pickup with 170K+ miles. Runs like a champ. Was my dad's until he passed away in 03. He kept it in great shape and I have had no problems with it since. I will drive it until it falls apart.
Got our son a Wrangler a few years back. Great little vehicle and a lot of fun to drive, which is why I would (or at least was) consider getting one. Plus, I think they just look cool.
I gave up on GM in when they got rid of Pontiac Saturn....
I still dont understand the need for a GMC and Chevy brand. They both offer basically the exact same vehicle with different trim options. Its stupid really.
Exactly!!! Also why would you keep Buick...?
I owned a GMC truck once that had an emblem on one side that said "Sierra" and one on the other side that said "Silverado". The dealer wanted to replace the "Silverado" emblem but I wouldn't let him.
I talked to a gentleman at a car show this weekend that had a 1965 Chevy truck. He bought it in 1972 and drove it up until about 8 years ago. He's done a real nice restoration on it and put a 327 engine in it. It looks really good.
I wouldn't hesitate to purchase an older used GM vehicle.
I don't want to buy a new one though.
So now the GM CEO is the expert and wants to dictate government policy. Hum....will Obama cater to the union monster and his political contributors at the expense of the American people yet again??

I wonder if its the other way around. For the Goverment to let GM free. They have to say exactly what the White House wants.So now the GM CEO is the expert and wants to dictate government policy.
