I'm not buying anything from Government Motors. Period. And to the guys that were crucifying GM at the altar for that Who Killed The Electric Car BS and are now "we must save GM for the jobs", hypocrisy much?

My wife would flip to reserve tank at random. I had to keep a stick in the yard to tell how much gas I had. It had about a 4" diameter clock on the dash (didn't work) and no fuel guage. I thought it offered some clue on why the Germans lost WWII. I had a ’57 Karmann Ghia when stationed on Okinawa in’67-69. My wife would flip to reserve tank at random.
