this thread is inbred...


first you say obama is trying to turn us all into commies by helping gm, then because gm filed chapter 7. now its smarter to keep and fix up old cars instead of buying new ones.


well guess what... you can't have it both(or all 3) ways. gm is fucked up and draging all the suppliers down with them right now because people are not buying new cars. if they are fixing up old cars, they arnt buying new cars.


see why this is fucked up and unfixable? it needed to be nipped in the butt 10years ago when they first started allowing car lones to get longer and longer. which allowed prices to go higher and higher. because no one cared that it would take 10years to pay off that car/suv was 50-60k if the payments were cheap. then 4 years later they wanted another new one.


it all plain ran a muck. all we can do at this point is watch to see how deep the rabbit hole goes. the time for blame is long long passed. it was many years ago, and they all cashed in short term, fuck the long term. but with the way its all set up, who can you blame? if they didn't make good numbers for their stock holders, the other company would and everyone would have bailed. it was a train wreak waiting to happen.



I would never buy a new car. my last new car was in 2002 and I will never buy new again.. ever.
