I love my GM cars and I dont care who made them or who owns the company. Flame away.

It's hard to argue with someone who simply states an opinion without a reasoned argument or facts. It's your opinion, and you are entitled to hold it.

You mean like when people impugn Consumer Reports without telling us why?

Have to come to mono's defense on this one. Do you normally choose your vehicles or make other financial decisions...and expensive ones at that, given what new vehicles cost today...solely based on emotion? Because that is exactly what you are asking us to do if you say we should boycott them simply due to the bailout. Where is the reasoned argument in that? I am sure mono, like me, can cite quality issues that would qualify as a much more reasoned argument than yours, heck, mine would even qualify as facts given the mileage on my GM vehicles I have owned without mechanical issues. I don't spend that much money based on emotion and it would be foolish to do so.

Here is my reasoned argument and facts. The GM cars I have owned were reliable, economical to operate and have had no major mechanical problems. One of my cars is a 1992 Olds custom cruiser station wagon which just turned 200,000 miles. Total outlay for parts....$40.00 to replace the cruise control module with a used one and about 100 bucks for a heater fan assembly. 350cid v8 gets 18 city and 25 hwy. which is fine with me. Weighs over two tons and foreign rice burners would self destruct if they hit me. I have owned dozens of GM cars, seven at present, and never had a lemon.
