Do you think today is the tipping point for Toyota's reputation?

I called the iPad an "iPod Touch De Lux LS Brougham" on twitter and got all sorts of hell for it.

My new Lenovo laptop is slightly thicker, slightly heavier, has 9 hours of battery life in the real world, real keyboard, 4 gig ram, 250gig hard drive, real processor, and a real OS. Cost $635 plus shipping.

Enterprise, National, Alamo (same company) and Avis, Budget (ditto), have removed Toyotas from their fleets.

this. If you to plan on selling the FWB, let me know

and yet the FWB is likely still more maneuverable.

Na

Isn't that about 85% of their North American volume?

Whenever Albert tries getting bossy while I'm driving, I call him Hyacinth to shut him up

Yeah and in the first four I picked I found quotes of Bob wishing that Pontiac, Saturn, and Saab would survive.

There'd have to be facts to face. You've presented none. Google could just as easily return results against your argument... how do we know which ones you're pointing?

he wishes

which ever way lights your fire baby.

I like my men like I like my coffee.... ground up and in the freezer.

On this board, those making accusations that have not been previously discussed need to support their accusations with evidence, articles, links, etc.

Good man! When you're apart for long periods like you two are, ya gotta slip it in when you can. edit: Oh wait! That's right! You didn't answer the phone the first time I called you back!

Breaks Men's Will

Well gee. I hope I didn't intrude

When you take the honey moon and never leave the hotel room, that's when it'll kick in.

Bob wasn't making those sorts of calls. He didn't make the call to kill Pontiac. He didn't make the call to sell Saab.

I don't think Bob Lutz had anything to do with the decision to kill Saturn.

GM Press Conference January 25th 2010 Drew Dowdell - Ed Whitacre called a press conference today to discuss changes to GM. Ed will be taking the helm of GM as it's permanent CEO. Mr. Whitacre said, "We've come a long way in a short time." GM will be repaying it's loans from the U.S. and Canadian government in full by June 2010. No change in direction of Saab wind down. No big changes, "I've been doing the job as if I were a permanent CEO" - Ed Ed will still be commuting from Texas but will spend a lot more time in Detroit. Ed wasn't intending to stay as CEO, but grew comfortable with the people and the company, and he got "sucked in". Ed will be both Chairman and CEO as long as he's doing this. No massive organizational changes. Ed as CEO is good for this country. "We're all motivated to the same thing, design and build the best vehicles in the world" Dealer arbitration won't effect GM's momentum forward.

Add to that a capable 6-speed auto and there should be a significant performance boost over the Cobalt. No wonder it'll do almost 40mpg.

tea?
