LMAO, and you call him a tool.
Yes I think Ford will pass GM just look at my sig. As far as I'm conserned they failed mthe American people for the last time.
I agree. I refuse to support a company that goes bankrupt, then restructure, and continue to do the same things that got them into trouble the first time around. In the end, their thousands of employees are going to be the ones that pay for the decisions of a few idiots, but it won't end there, because there are numerous other companies that rely on GM's business to stay afloat. GM's failure will ultimately result in lost jobs elsewhere as well.
I personally don't care what happens to GM, but I'll feel bad for the people who are directly affected by GM's management decisions.
GM will not bounce back from this. They will fall again. No empire lasts forever, and this is proof in the pudding.
Personally, I think the majority of GM cars look better than their Ford competition. I think the Taurus and Focus are just ugly, and I don't care at all for their SUVs. I think the updated Fusion looks nice, and I like the optional AWD that can be had with a fairly powerful V6. I also really like the styling of the Lincoln MKZ.
I'd definitely purchase an F-Series truck over a GM, and I think it's pretty clear that Ford will be adding another notch to their belt for an additional Mustang GT sale.
On the GM side, I think the Malibu is sharp for an affordable mid-size car, the Corvette is hot, the G6 looks good, the Solstice/Sky look good, and the G8 is just great all the way around. The Camaro is already stale and it hasn't even been on the market for a year. We've been seeing that car for nearly 5 years, and I feel like I've seen them on the road for just as long.
If I were new to automobiles and someone lined up all the Ford vehicles in a line and all the GM vehicles in a line, including the European ones, I would instantly gravitate to GM's "bolder" vehicles.
I agree with most of what you are saying but one of my reason's for disliking GM lately is that I think Ford's new lineup just look's so much better. Dont get me wrong some of those GM car's are great such as the Vet and Caddy but most are'nr all that special. I personally think the new Tauras sho is a nice ride and I would take the new Expedition over a Suburban at this point. The Expedition IMO just look's like a million buck's and the Suburban look's like a nice Gov. vehicle not to mention better feature's IMO. You mentioned the G8, that is what I traded in for the Mustang it was a nice car to look at on the outside but the inside is well not much to talk about not to mention all of the problem's with them. But I must say that four door Pontiac can really move.
And yeah I'm so glad I cancled my order on the Camaro before it was built because when I seen it in person I wanted to vomit.
I think we all vomited a little bit when we saw it for the first time
Pretty sure that Ford did the same thing that GM did during WWII.
Yes they did, never claimed they didnt

When did I say they didnt ?
Ford Stepped up during WW2, they didnt participate in any other war do to the allegations of That Ford and GM built stuff for the NAZIS. PPL who claimed to have worked for FORD during WW2 in the the so called SLAVE Camps sued Ford, showing Ford Indentification cards of employment.
Ford said that the Nazis seized their facilities and took them over.
Its you saying GM sucks and you would like to see them go under. Dont believe Ive bad mouthed Ford..... at least in comparison to your ranting about GM anyway.
