Government Motors
Remember: a camel is a mouse by government design.
The Obamanauts are aboard the good ship “Calapso”.
Cobalt and Aveo are being replaced within the year.
If you believe Forbes then avoid the Ford F-250.
Any guy who uses heavy duty work trucks can tell you the Ford F-250 is not unreliable.
Escalade sells like hotcakes with the largest profit margins for GM. If that is a vehicle to avoid then GM needs more of them.
Canyon/Colorado being unreliable is bovine feces too.
Government motors=fascism. For some reason, well intentioned, liberal democrats cannot seem to realize that their progressive leadership is more fascist than Bush/Cheney/Haliburton even if you believe their version of history.
Sorry, no, the Canyon/Colorado twins being unreliable is gospel. They have Chinese-made engines which are known to be problematic.
As for the F-250... in a world where the F-350 can sometimes be had for not even $1000 more, yeah, it’s not a good value. The F-250 only prospers in states that require commercial drivers licenses to drive a one-ton pickup. Elsewhere, everyone just buys the 350.
The Escalade may sell well but that doesn’t mean it’s not crap. The Pinto, Vega and Gremlin all sold well, too.

Slowly the US population is waking up to this. I predict they won’t buy the damn things in droves...
I wouldn’t buy a GM vehicle if they were selling them for $100 bucks.
Barak Obama is the biggest half-assed president in history.
I saw one of those the other day, too boxy for my tastes and just generally ugly as hell.
The Escalade sells well because every stupid rap artist drives one, and then people watch MTV Cribs and they say, "OH! I GOTTA HAVE ONE!"
Can't see in either. That's so the guy in the car behind can't see the driver and shake his head in wonder at the fool who bought such a car.
Surprised to see that the Escalade is not safe. A lot of Moms drive these.
I was buying Chrysler vehicles for over 40 years and spent 25 of those years as dealer mechanic, 20 years at the last dealership that was one of the 789.
I will never buy another UAW/Chrysler vehicle.
What Daimler began, Obama and the UAW will finish.
I will never buy a UAW vehicle (until The Regime madates it, that is).
Truly conservative, hard working American men will keep old vehicles and keep them running fine until after the cleansing of sovereign debt crises, when we’ll see reasonably smaller government again. ...doesn’t matter which older make that you drive.
No, you won’t.

Kiss your old hot rod byebye. Guess what 15% ethanol does to fuel systems not intended for it.
Read carefully what it actually says and look at the "ratings" for each vehicle before you swallow this codswollop.
Example: How do they rate the relieblility of the vehicle?
With a "Predicted Reliability Score", as opposed to any facts, user results or analysis of actual failure data.
.
The Forbes article is quoting the Consumers Report article recentely published. I have completed CU’s on-line surveys for automobiles and I can tell you that CU’s questions are useless. I will never do another CU survey.
But as for GM and Chrysler Government motors, none in my driveway and there never will be!
