Look what you've done, you little jerk!

 

[OneBadGTR]

wow..

 

[Primalzer]

Just one more reason to love Ford

 

[Angus]

I wouldn't think twice about the loss except for the money invested into GM by our gov't...
damn it.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Didn't ford turn a profit finally?

 

[Primalzer]

They still had an operating loss of 400 million, but posted a 2.7 billion profit

 

[YoushallgoFo]

What is everyone buying then? Hyundai? I thought toyota was destoyed

 

[99PONTIACGP]

I think Hyundai is coming aroud though. Their new cars are starting to look pretty awesome.

 

[radioguy6]

dont worry they said "we anticipate profit in 2010"...... so its all OK.

Im not suprised at all. As long as they can pay back their undeserved loans then whatever. But seeing shit like this pisses me off. Chrysler on the other hand who also got a handout, continues to produce garbage and gets featured at the bottom of the reliablility lists. Our gov't has made such wise investments!!!

i'm not too worried, most companies coming out of bankruptcy don't come out of the gate all gangbusters. Call me in august and then we'll talk about how shitty they are. Or how Ford is the fastest/greatest.

Shoulda let 'em die.

Don't worry, the scuttlebutt around GM is that there will only be 3 brands:

1). Chevy
2). Buick
3). Cadillac

Each brand will have rougly 6 models which will be a carbon copy of the other-except for the typical different bumper, grilles, rebadge, and change the interior kind of crap we've come to expect. If it wasn't for the Challenger and the ever so slight hint that Pontiac might come back (as soon as Jupiter and Venus are in alignment with the 4th star of Orion), I'd say let them fail.

Oh wait, didn't they already DO THAT? Oops, I forgot. Our illustrious 'leader' said, "G.M. and Chrysler are TOO BIG TO FAIL". So, let's compromise quality, the lives of our children/family, the American spirit and our economy to bail these f**kers out...only to have G.M. throw a $1.5 Million Gala for their "investors".




How come I wasn't invited?

 

[Turk]

American cars. Lol

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

American cars. Lol

Agreed.


I probably will never own another gm product made after 1971.

 

[jason05gt]

American cars. Lol

M3's, lol......worse numbers on the skidpad and braking than a V6 Mustang

Yeah, we pay taxes, why aren't we considered investors?

Oh

and

snap

 

[TransHed]

Isnt that "loss" comparing old GM to new GM tho? I mean clearly when the company had 8 brands it was going to bring in more money that with just 4 like it has now.
