1. This was intended as a joke, notice it’s posted under "humor".
2. The idea was mine.
3. Toyota makes a good car/truck, they just screwed up.
4. I do not support the Obama administration.
5. I own a 2006 Chevy HHR and a 2004 Hyundai Accent.
The Hyundai has over 80,000 miles and I’ve only had to change oil regularly and the tires and brakes once.
I recently purchased the HHR. It had 40,000 miles on it. So far the dealership has had to replace all the sway bar linkages, the complete steering column and just yesterday, both front struts due to rattles. There was also a water leak which caused the front driver side carpet to become soaked. The driver’s seat belt had to be replaced and the left rear speaker repaired.
In Chevy’s defense, they thankfully threw in a 12 month 12,000 mile warranty with the deal. Good thing huh…? I’ve sent both the dealership and GM sincere thank you’s and gave high marks for both GM and the dealership on their customer survey.
So if I offended anyone, I apologize and I do agree that the government is taking advantage of Toyota's situation.
Sincerely - eyekarry
Hey, EK, I was only kidding back.
I actually like GM cars (I have a 53 Olds Super 88!), just wouldn’t buy one after the government stepped in.
I think most freepers just wanted to make sure that everyone was aware how Obammie and his Commies were taking advantage of this “crisis.”
