Re: Screw Consumer Reports

Hey, this is all about the survey results that CR publishes. Those survey results are not based on my opinion (except for my one survey reply), they are based on over a million replies by loads of car owners. Those surveys show that you are dead wrong about brand reliability. There is a HUGE difference between the reliability experience of, say, a Caddy and a Lexus...according to the people who bought the two brands.

That is not the only factor that controls buyer choice for all or even most buyers, you are exactly right about that and, as a result, GM sells a lot more cars/trucks in the U.S. than Toyota. But they make no money doing it and that is bad. I submit to you that if it was GM that had the excellent survey results i the CR survey and Toyota had the mediocre or worse ones, we would be discussing how Toyota is going to survive in the U.S. market.

It has come to light that the loss at GM last year was $11.000.000.000 and not just $9.000.000.000 as was previously estimated

So with $15.000.000.000 loss this year it will be interesting to see how long they continue paying customers to take cars

of course, we all wonder where you came up with that fictious, inflammatory $15B figure from. I suspect somewhere dark and dank. JP

Thatcher sat at a ceremony at the Chinese capital and asked their prime minister

How often do you have elections?

Evely night!
