Don't they make most of the vehicles in Mexico and Canada... That's a little bit of a falsehood.

I ruled out buying another new GM car just because of the absolute **** interior quality of my GXP. The whole bailout thing and now misleading advertising doesn't help sway me...

Good find on that article.

Wow really? I'm not trying to start some big debate... but you don't pay attention to what the government does with the money you give off of every paycheck?

I bought my car used. There's no way I'd every buy a new GM.

Im glad someone made this point. People hear that "the government" is giving money to this and that, and most people dont realize that "the government" has no money to give... its all OUR money. So it does **** me off when they write huge checks to bailout companys and banks, and send billions of dollars in relief overseas... cuz that is my money and your money they are using.

And people's ignorance towards it is what allows them to keep doing so. Everyone thinks they cannot control the government. Well they can if they would just pay attention and try.

sorry, rant over.
