Owned 5 gm vehicles in a row, purchased the last one in 2003 and still have it. Time for a new vehicle for my wife but we will be avoiding anything gm. After the Obama bailout coupled with the fact that they obviously have major quality issues based on all the recalls and the fact I’d rather not support a union even indirectly, we’ll be going in another direction this time around.

Then you, my friend, will enjoy a Toyota Tundra or Tacoma. Made in TX by Americans. No unions.

I join you too, in the fact that I have a 2005 Avalanche. Love it! but it will be my last GM product. We had friends and family lose THOUSANDS in GM preferred stock, common stock, and corporate bonds.

I could have owned GM at 18-19 ...now trading upper 30s, nearly doubling my money, but I own F now, and getting a small dividend.

Yes, Ford (F) is union, and I probably won't buy a Ford truck, but I will let them pay me a dividend.
