HAHAHAHA no, they had poor financial practices, forcing them to sell of things such as Land Rover, Jaguar, Volvo, and their product is no better or worse then a GM. In fact my work truck at Kiewit, an F250, had more recalls on it then my GM. So I'm just calling it a draw.

Nah. Gm needs recalls but doesnt do them. At least Ford corrects the issues.
And yeah. The F150 has consistently outsold gm for years because its not a quality product.

Re: Post pics of vehicle you've seen around!
I'm sorry for taking a picture of a CTS-V and posting it here, then defending the looks of its normal-shaped siblings.

HAHA Name one recent GM recall....name it. I'm sure there are some, but which is more public, the F250's sticky throttle, because the electronics crap out, or a GM? Which I can't name any off the top of my head.
And the F150 outsells GM's 1500, whoopity-freakin'-doo, GM still outsells Ford worldwide, one model isn't much to gauge on.

So other then engine fires, Ford has more recalls....read it.

Only ford recall we've had to deal with was the cruse control on the expedition.....
----------
Bottom line- trying to get me or mike to see GM products any other way is like trying to turn water into wine. It just won't happen.

That's fine, people try and tell me Honda's are awesome, I still hate them. Just don't run your mouth, if you can't back it up. The GM isn't anymore crap then your Ford. My GMC standard cab, also has better legroom then my extended cab Ford anyway. Lol

Basically what I got from your point in the argument was, the design of the CTS-V is equally as ugly as the Aztek simply because it is manufactured by General Motors, and the reliability of a car somehow contributes to its aesthetics.

No, I'm saying that both vehicles are ugly, and the GM I have is a huge POS.
No need to over analyze and get your panties in a wad.

And if either of you guys would like to spend a day in my shoes and work on this thing, please come on down and be my guest.
Then you'll understand my pain.

You say you are a GM hater because you own a GM and it's garbo yet you also let your hatred of GM cloud your vision of a well-designed car. Now, if you really don't like the design of the car itself then just say you don't, but don't say it's ugly just because it's a GM. Do you see where I'm coming from at least?
