actually a better anology would be your parents loan you money and before you fully pay them back you invest in your home... you still continue to pay them back... why is this hard for you to comprehend? sleepy?
i wouldn't do any of that shit on a car or truck.Quote:

If so, FOR SHAME! You should be taking all of that money and dumping it onto your loans.
George- What you don’t get is that Government Motors continues the reckless behavior that got them in trouble in the first place…Over extending themselves, bonuses for executives and now the factory workers, too many car models and huge investments in countries that could care less if they go belly up…
Take care of your financial obligations to the USA taxpayers
and THEN continue the reckless behavior…
Their model count is actually waay down from the last decade. Remember, Olds, Saturn and Pontiac? Adios Muchacho.
And Saab to boot.
GM seems to be reacting to market trends much quicker, tbh, and their model developement cycle is much quicker now that they have embraced the global architecture design route. I don't see much in the way of recklessness with GM these days and I'm, at least, a very interested spectator.
Chevy's model count seems to be way up.
Their domestic small car lineup is really expanding.
Spark, Cruze, Volt, and Sonic. I can't remember a time when they had this many small cars offered. Similarly, these have dissappeared from the other divisions although Buick does have a model based on the same platform as the Cruze.
And they have sucky gas mileage for small cars.
Small cars should be approaching 40 mpg.
Sonic - 40mpg
Cruze - 42mpg
Spark - 44 mpg
Volt - A bazillion mpg.
Not exactly sucky, dude.
The problem is, they relatively speaking don't make shit on those cars...maybe a thousand or two, unlike the tens of thousands they make on full size trucks and suv's. I still say $4 gas is gonna kick GM's ass just like it did in 2008.Quote:

A gateway is just as important as a margin....
