I don’t see any reason to avoid GM because of the bailout. After all Chrysler got bailed out in 1979.
I’m not against temporary assistance to major American industries as long as it is temporary and the taxpayer gets fully repaid. The Arsenal of Democracy was called that for a reason, and Peter Navarro’s “Death by China” is a worthy addition to this argument.
The Caddies are striking in appearance but I haven’t seen anything about how they perform. I’d like to find that GM has implemented what W. Edwards Deming taught the Japanese. There was a time when “Made in America” meant quality.
I agree with you, but I think GM should have gone through a normal bankruptcy and reformed, in order to dump the unions.

I wouldn’t buy a Chrysler either. As said by RoadTest, I don’t much care for the hanky panky in the current bailout. There are laws regarding bankruptcy and they were ignored.

I have a 2006 STS V8 with AWD. It’s got plenty of power and handles curves well for it’s weight (still a heavy car).
The CTS series has some really impressive performers (the V cars are just amazing).
