i was thinking about tradeing my girls 03 cav for one, but they offered me 13k in trade for it, its got like 10k miles if that, its the super delux one with the ground FX's, and chrome 10 spokes, loaded, sunroof, the hole 9, and its in perfect shape (those who know me, know its mint) so 13 wouldnt cut it, maybe 15-16 and it would go in trade, but oh well. maybe next year.

in all honesty brad anything over 10g for a cav on trade isnt bad . i dont doubt that the condition is spotless just a cav doesnt hold a good value because of the sport package . new they were selling for about 15 . id take 13 in this situation ASLONG as they dont pork ya on the pice of the SS now if they want you to pay sticker or something then ya get more for the cav .the cobalt is a nicer car if ya ask me too.

My brother has the regular Cobalt and it's a nice car but there are so many little quirks with it. I think it's the first year bugs but my brother had to get a lawyer and bring GM to court so they would take the car back. He didn't mind the little stupid things because there will always be a recall for that stuff but the car would pull to the left and they couldn't fix it. The car was in the shop 3 times and each time for at least a week, the front end was re-built so many times and they finally just said "it's within normal operating specs". GM is buying the car back now and my brother is going out to get a Subaru now.

My family ALWAYS bought Chevy but my Dad's vechile not too long ago was eating trannies and starters, his next vechile had tons of steering problems that took forever too fix and now the fuel system keeps acting up. The latest issue is with the stupid Cobalt, it has all these quirks and then the steering acts up. You can only be a loyal customer so long. Either GM quality control blows or we keep getting crappy cars...I'm thinking the first.

this car was 20k sticker, i paid 17k plus the 800 for the 6 year warrenty, i owe 11 on it, but i figure if they offer me 13 now, they i can drive the car for the rest of the year, and still get close to that. the car is like NEW, so give it a while then i can also find a new SS leftover and realy get a good deal, and by then the cav will be about 8-9k owed so if i get 12 or 13 then, my payment on the SS would be real sweet, and i'll have a new car for the spring of next year.
i cant part with the cav just yet, its to nice of a car, and its perfect for my old lady, she is so used to shitboxes, this car is like a benz to her, and she realy takes great care of it, i cant spoil her to bad. lol

My biggest problem with GM so far is the stupid people working on them!!! every time i bring my truck or my dads truck in for fixing something, we get it back not fixed right with more stuff broken!! it rediculos some of the people they have, they shouldnt be alowed out of the house but they can work on my truck!!

Ford service is no better! I'll bet there have been more scratches put on, and burn outs down in my truck by ford service than by myself! Come to think of it I have never scratched it, so tht makes it about 15-0 Ford.
