KA-CHING !!! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$



All this from a guy who drives an old, beat to s*it Ford p/u and his wifes 12 year old Grand Prix. Daddy No-Bucks!

easy there, Riceboy...we wouldn't want you to OD on prozac, and try to kill yourself again.

when's the last time you saw the kids from your first marriage ??

you failed them as a father

and the Navy kicked you out with a dishonorable discharge

you grew up in a shithole near a polluted river !

EWWWWW !!

GM has owned Opel since before WW II...idiot.

GM is trying to unload Saab on anyone with a checkbook. Sales are DOWN. Sources: Automotive Weekly , CNBC and the Wall St. Journal

GM has had a stake in Vauxhall since the early 1950s. It hasn't made money in over 20 years.

Another loser, source of the failed "Pontiac LeMans" disaster of the late '80s. The stake in Daewoo was bought to try to "hedge" their foreign investment after Suzuki, now divested, became too costly for GM to continue to operate.

GM has held an interest in Holden, along with industrial/railroad manufacturer Clyde, since the 1930s.

All losers that GM has been actively trying to sell, to no avail. BMW, who owns Rolls-Royce and is now cleaning up using the old "Mini Cooper" name, has already turned down Jag/Land Rover from GM.

Who's "us?" You have another rat in your pocket, Noodles?

More delusional thinking from a fat lump of marinara sauce who thought he could become rich selling frauds and junk on eBay, and now sweats out every month waiting for his SSI check to show up while his wife works a menial office job. What an American this ginzo is!

What a waste of money -- I'll take a 300C SRT8!

That 12 year old Grand Prix comment hit hard!

Please don't take it out on your wife ...again.

Please don't feed the troll.

That's a tough thing to do, since Jag and LR are owned by Ford. BMW actually sold LR to Ford. I won't comment on your other mistakes. (ie. Volvo) I'm sure others will.

TIP: Educate yourself using Google before posting!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!! good one !! You just stuffed DeserTBoob's shoe back in his mouth, where it usually belongs...

yes, notice how he still has not admitted, that GM is #1 and Ford #3, way ahead of all the other overseas Jappers- but he sees them as being at the bottom- a sure sign of his insanity. Toyota can only compete by moving their factories to the USA. Which the USA gov't gladly lets them do, since it then gets Toyota to match all the employees FICA deductions, and our utilities servicing the plants also get Toyota's money. And the gov't can then hit Toyota wiht USA income tax at the corporate level AND employee levels. So in effect, the USA makes more money on Toyota than they make on us.

Sorry...mistyped, I did mean Ford, but please go one about the other errors.

Google's only one cut above Wikipedia.

Shut up, Noodles, before I shove your computer up your ass...again.

Noodles, why are you coming in here and doing "drive-by" posts, deleting them as soon as you post them?

oooh, now we're all scared...things are going to get "worser", no doubt ??

Figures a vulgar uneducated turd like you would understand that straight away....."Noodles."

Charlie Nudo, aka "dutyhonorcountry" (who never served a day of his worthless life in the US military), can't even AFFORD a new ricer...let along a 300C. He drives old car, like I do, but is ashamed of it. I like old cars, especially good ones!

What's that, Noodles? The sound of the money you WON'T be making off of eBay? Those two NO BID auctions are hilarious! You actually expect that crap to sell?
