My son sold his Chevy Impala with 259,000 miles on it and I still see it on the road today. If you take care of a vehicle it will last you. It's ridiculous to say a vehicle built by union members will not last. If the buyer doesn't take care of the vehicle hell no it won't last. I mean have you tried to buy a used vehicle today. Look at some of the miles of these cars or trucks.

BBQ your tundra wouldn't pull my toy hauler very far. It my pull your surf boards where you need to go but it won't pull my camper. I have pretty good luck with American Auto makers vehicles. In the last 40 years the only problem I had was a transmission go out. The vehicle (2007 Saturn outlook) was out of warranty, but GM paid for the repairs. I had that vehicle for 12 years. I prefer an American Auto maker who supports American workers, who pay them well so they can support other local businesses. If you prefer to support a non-American Auto makers who's profit leaves America and goes back to their country so be it. Remember the Japanese can own a car only if they can approve, they own a parking spot to park the car. So, there is no reason for Japan to produce vehicles. The only reason they build vehicles here is to take from the American economy and take the profits back to support Japan. I guess I'm just more of a U.S. patriot than you are. Have a good day at work.

Lurker, why don't you go and research and explain to us why the financial crisis (Great Recession) of 2008 create by Bush 43 (held office from 2001-2009) policies. How the financial instability created the worst U.S auto sales climate. Explain because of Bush's financial disaster that GM was losing $85 million a day.

My Ford F250 will go 350,000 to 500,000 miles. I put an average of 8500 miles on it a year. At the low in (350,000) it will last me 41 years. I probably will not be alive in 41 years.

I paid half of what you did for my tundra back in 2012….it’s currently sitting at 240k, pulls everything I have,gets me to every racetrack in the country I want to drive to and back and forth anywhere as the daily driver. The f250 is a nice piece, but you overpaid 15/20% too much because of double union retirements and the like.

Just sayin.

You forgot the part where the Honda will be running reliably 20+ years down the road, meanwhile the gms will be crushed for salvage at that time.
The union bosses drive gms to work, look behind their other garage doors.

kidrock, Its all ok. Full disclosure since voting age ----

I liked Regan
I didn’t like HW Bush
I didn’t mind Clinton
I didn’t like W Bush (thought he was a liar and war monger)
I didn’t like Obama at all (because of association with Bill Ayers)
I liked Trump (because of his economic policies and security policies)
Don’t like Biden (I think he is senile)

[lurker]

So if I don't like someone I have to hate them?

No

Hate is a strong word to use when one doesn't even know the person.

Correct, my wording was poor. Dislike should have been used.

F/F posted: SS , I suppose ole henry did what honda in Lincoln Alabama is doing now , take care of your employees and there is no need for a union , I think every business in this country could do the same......but ....who would pay for the union
"powers that be " lavish life styles ......

Gm average salary is $31.00 an hour. Honda average salary is $23.00 an hour. Gm's workers are making $1280 more a month. Union due $62.00 a month. 1280 - 62 = 1218. So, a Union worker is making $1218 more a month. F/F who better off? Would you pay $62 to earn 1218 more a month.

The GM employee can afford to buy the vehicle he/she is producing. The Honda employee can't afford to pay for the car he/she is producing. And that's what henry Ford was talking about.

Yep duped fools were brainwahsed into hating Trump, By the Marxist media, academia, and radical politicians. Don't blame Trump for that, he was only MAGA-ing it for the people against the swamp. But you guys seem to like the swamp. Oh well...

Before I argue with you I need to ask myself are you mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective because if not there's absolutely no point. And well that's the end of this argument. lmfao..

I meant to tell you good of you and your friends to still be friends. To many friends are not friends anymore because of the Trump era. Just saying.
