So you won't give GM a chance hey? Well, my husband works for GM as do thousands of other Americans. It might interest you to know that all car companies are starting to get their parts from third world countries-thanks to the failure of our government to enforce fair trade policies. Personally, my loyalty is to my country and my fellow Americans-not a foreign car company subsidized by their government (illegal under WTO but when did rules apply to the Japanese)- a government that blocks all foreign competion I might add. There are many forms of treason you know.

Thousands of red-state Americans also work for Nissan and Toyota, many of them from my home state of Kentucky and my second home state of Tennessee.

Look, GM is overrun by a bunch weasels who went to school and got MBAs and decided it was a smart business move to make cheaper, but lower quality cars. The market spoke and said that isn't what it wanted. I prefer to buy American made goods like you, but I can't afford to be sinking heavy duty money into maintenance on a vehicle. I'm one of the little guys to, ya know. I need my vehicles to run to 150,000 miles with minimal maintenance. Most GMs will not do this. Some of the more expensive ones will, but since I'm one of the little guys, I can't afford those kinds of cars.

Yes, it's a bad situation. GM used to make the finest automobile money could buy. Union regulations and cutting corners has lost them that reputation. I hope they get it back.

If US content is the deciding factor for you, then buy a Toyota or a Honda.

I agree. Such as supporting a corrupt union that wants a more socialist American and that strongarms their employees into voting straight Democratic ticket while funneling millions of dollars to socialist-minded candidates such as Hillary Clinton, Al Gore and John Kerry.
