General Motoring

Lemon driving. Also: Webb site Virginia. Kos's perfect record. Till death do us party. Still more Coulter Judgements. Plus much else.

(Page 3 of 17)

Hard to believe that GM has not seen the light yet. As Peters points out, GM can't see its market or its product and even in the jaws of bankruptcy, fails to respond.

I feel the agony would be over by now if GM didn't have the large fleet sales to rental outlets and large corporate and government contracts. Who wants a Buick today? Perhaps GM can't see the Buick market because Lexus (Toyota) and others auto makers respond and offer superior products. I know Buick has nothing that can come close to an ES350. Lexus does with ease now what Buick can only dream of when it was young and had some youth appeal. The average Buick buyer today is 60-plus years old.

Has GM not been paying attention to the youth market? Throw away the Camaro/Firebird? And then try and come back against a Ford Shelby Mustang... good luck!

p>The Corvette has always been GM's "other" child. They wanted to get rid of it at one or more times. Perhaps this is why it's so hard to find the "bowtie" on the fabled sports car. br> -- Len LaBounty /p> p> As long as GM is giving most of its profits to the unions it will never climb out of the hole. Maybe it should move all its plants to right to work states and stop paying blackmail to the union bosses. Let them try and strike down south and you can replace with willing, not illegal, workers. br> -- Elaine Kyle /p> p> WINNING DEMS? br> Re: Brendan Conway's A Test for "Fighting Dems"
