  1. Yes, my issue is with Hypocrisy. These guys have recalled as much as GM has, yet there is no one crying river on it. Honda recalling airbags after 14 years? I want to see Blumenthal calling for a Congressional hearing for that and those victims' families standing holding signs saying "Honda is Bad." True....But keep in mind Honda and Toyota's Sheeple flock is much, much bigger than GM's... The Media seems to have a real ire of GM for some reason...
  2. True...hence my issues and beef with the media right now.....they are trying to turn this from a roast to a full blown BBQ..... And as far as my Cobalt, It's not the world's great car (still prefer my Cavalier over it), but short of a few issues, has not done me wrong. Far from junky... Besides, the Balt is my beater.....not worried what people think about it anyways. That, and it's well cared for anyways......
  3. Nice! I like!
  4. How so if the vehicle is fixed? Would you want to buy something that has "been through so many recalls"? People who are not car people are going to wonder why a company is recalling so many cars....whether it is in good faith or not. When my neighbor refers to my Cobalt as the "junky" car, this kinda gives you a little insight on just how the media is running wild on this. Question is just how damaged the rep is right now..... Do you have hard evidence other than hear say or perceptions? Z, it's okay man-I'm not here to bash on GM.... For us car folk, all we can do is shake our head and moan. It is annoying, but it's not going to stop me from buying or recommending GM cars and trucks. And GM took care of me when my Cobalt went in for recall work. So all is good there. It's those non car people who listen to the media I am more worried about. Most people don"t even ask questions, like the whys and hows. Like my neighbor who now thinks everything GM makes now is junk. Or some of my co workers.... As far as evidence, I don't have any...I just take what is going around me. Though I did visit a buddy who works at a local Dodge dealership, and while talking to him, joked about trading my balt in to another guy. Not sure if he thought I was serious, but he did tell me that the most he could give me was like 1500, because there was no way he was going to be able to sell it on his lot...which i interesting, since I think it is more like 5 I think.. Hence why I mentioned the damaged rep.....
  5. My body get pissed if it goes too many nights without 6-8 hours a night..... Stress about finding a new job is my issue now... fans at night do help quite a bit....
  6. Heard that quite a few times today...
  7. greek
  8. Sucks it got hit, but glad she will be back on the road soon....
  9. I'm going with going from one extreme to the other.....

  11. I think so....though it being able to undercut it in price will be huge.....
  12. Well, I'm right at 9.6 right now, so I am getting there. Fleet is not going to change much, though a new one could be added....
  13. Just got the chance to drive one of these... Cruze, while still much better, might have to worry about this one...... Handles much better than any other little Kia that I have driven. Handling is starting to get there......
  14. Sounds like a good ride then... But I never thought I would say it, but I like that cvt....
  15. Are we talking like other ads as well? Or deals in general?
  16. ending
  17. Very good question. Getting the feeling they won't be able to afford that idea now.....we could still see something just like that... Or another year of the upcoming "refresh"......
  18. True, but the media is going to bash them to death.....
