whippeeedo. I took my 150,000 mile Honda CRV from LA to SF last weekend. It rode like the day I drove out of the showroom 10 years ago.

Build a better car and they will come.

Since these idiots got smarter this time and drove instead of flew their private jets to beg for money; Hopefully, we can get Speaker Pelosie to downsize her LARGE military provided jet and quite flying home every weekend. Of course she got to go home to get feedback on her new 600 million dollar visitor center!

I commute 50 miles per day in my 227,000+ mile Subaru.

Your ‘Town and Country’ UAW piece of junk will NEVER see 200,000 miles

One more thing,

Your ‘Town and Country’ UAW piece of junk will NEVER see 200,000 miles

Even if it did, I would NOT line the pockets of the UAW!

I just took my Ford Ranger to the mechanic for transmission work. It has 46,000 miles on it and I haven’t hauled anything heavier than 400 lbs. The GM I bought earlier threw a rod after 70,000 miles and was a piece of junk.

My next vehicle will be a Honda or a Toyota.

La dee freakin da! Big sacrifice buddy! Welcome to 90% of American life. I too, fly Southwest and put up with their rude asses which I venture to say you were not subjected to. I will not, however, drive a Chrysler. I do drive a Ford Focus. It’s a good little car, we’ve had it 4 years with no problems.

Yeah my two previous GM’s never made it past 100k.
I had a Jeep Cherokee that went 250k and I have two Hondas now…one with 165K and one with 32k…neither have needed major engine or drivetrain repairs.

by gosh, did he just say he is going to win our money?

poor poor me   December 5th, 2008 - 10:55 pm

This guy would have better luck pan-handling for spare change. It’s pathetic to see a grown man(who has a job!!!) begging for my money…especially when it’s their own f-ing fault!!! Hey Bob Nardelli, Yahoo is looking for a new CEO, update the resume’ and hit the road jerkface!!!
