Oracle of Delphi

So jlgolden, when will you be going over to the Hon-Duh forums, or are you already there? Just curious!

Is it getting hot in here? I guess that's one Holden you would have liked to have driven?

Of course they did, it's only the older cars that can't be upgraded (there is a point where it's not cost efficient), like olsmoboi said, he got his upgrade letter yesterday.

I don't have time for a new persona, so you are just stuck with the same old me.

Ummm, GM isn't shutting down your service, the cell phone companies are. Because of the FCC ruling, cell phone companies are allowed to shut down their analog cell phone systems in 2008. OnStar is basically a cell phone system, on older model cars they use the technology that was available at the time of production. Technology changes as time goes on, you were just caught in a bad decision from the FCC, not GM.

I had a problem 30 days before my warranty ran out on a dell desktop. My dell service center was in Canada. They said they were sending me parts so a service technician could install them but the parts never would arrive. When I called back to inquire why, I was told the part order was cancelled because, of NAFTA! My parts, I was told were being stopped at the US/Canadian border. With all the emails going back and forth between Dell and I, I knew their email naming convention, so I decided to take a chance and email Michael Dell, president and founder of Dell. In the email I detailed my problems and closed the email by stating this is not how owning a Dell is supposed to be. The very next afternoon, I received a phone call from a woman named Cynthia who was a Senior Vice President of Dell, she said she was directed by Michael Dell to correct my problem and that she and Michael had reviewed my customer service logs and they had decided to replace my entire desktop system, all I would have to do is ship my old system back to Dell in Texas and they would pay for it. Not only that they replaced my system with a model that was 4 times better than what I had and threw in a flat LCD monitor 19". Because of that I am a Dell customer for life and have bought 3 more systems since. PM me if you want his email, hopefully it hasn't changed in 3 years.

He also could have read the owners manual! Also they are lovely new glasses you have in your avatar Oldmoboi, very attractive!

Watch out wildmanjoe, she looks like Kathy Bates in the 1990 movie Misery. You don't want to be Hobbled by her now do you?

Couldn't have happened to a nicer company!

My thought on this for a long time has been that the name should be changed to GMT (General Motors Trucks). Now here is where I know I will get some flak from Chevy Truck fans, but I think all trucks need to be sold under GMT, even Chevy trucks. This would take away the dual badges for the same trucks and allow any division of GM to sell trucks in any dealership. If I were running GM there would be only one truck brand and that would be GMC, or as I would call it GMT. OK, let me duck and cover!

Classic!

Yes it's true, I have a secret fetish. It's time I have come clean as it were. Since I was a boy of 10, I have had a desire to restore and own a GMC New Look (Fishbowl) bus. Am I alone in my desire for a bus or are there more of you out there, closeted in your love for GMC buses? Yes sad as it is, I have even collected pics of these buses over the years much like a normal person who collects pics of cars and trucks. Here is one of my pretty babies, isn't she beautiful?

I hate all the stupid G names and I won't buy a car with those names on it.

My condolences!

Excellent read, great pics!

I agree, for the love of God, give me names!

After watching that, I'm not so sure Amy is a woman!

Yes I know she is ocnblu, however I was not commenting on the boy in this article, just my own thoughts had it been me at that age. I doubt I would have ratted her out, a character flaw in me to be sure!

Coming from a fellow Italian, I am shocked, dismayed and hurt to the core of my soul!

Twins who bought twin cars, you just got to love that!

I did do a Chevrolet commercial when I was in San Antonio, TX for a local Chevy dealer there. My wife and I were visiting the Alamo when when we were approached and asked to be in it. We signed the papers, they paid us cash, and all we had to do was look like tourist (which we were) as they pulled a car up in front of the Alamo.

Change the M to N (As In Nissan), and call it a day! Nissan if you do, I will sue your A$$ in Canada for stealing my idea! :rotflmao:

WILMINGTON, Del. - A sixth-grade science teacher who was accused of having sex with a 13-year-old student has been sentenced to 10 years in prison. Rachel L. Holt, 35, had pleaded guilty to second-degree rape. She sobbed in court Friday as Superior Court Judge Calvin L. Scott gave her the mandatory minimum sentence.

What have I won?
