I must have found the lone excellent GM dealer. Bairel Cadillac in Wexford PA was always good to me. I'd place a phone call, they'd bring down a loaner Cadillac the next morning, pick up my car at my office and return it washed and vacuumed that afternoon. There was never a fight to get stuff done.

I'm saying that the existing dealers own and operate such franchises. Sales lots require substantial amount of real estate, but a Goodwrench service station wouldn't take up that amount of space. It's a way for GM to cut down on the number of dealers while still allowing for warranty service coverage nation wide.

send me the link

sell them all to leno, at least he can take care of them right.

Good, now calculate how much in "bailouts" the imports have gotten via their home government's socialized medicine.

A sample size of one proves nothing. I like the idea of the Magnum, but wouldn't buy one because 1) it's a Dodge. 2) Interior that would make a Pontiac blush. 3) minimal additional utility. As far as the Ute is concerned, no it won't be the next F-150, but times have very much changed. Gas prices are still big in the minds of people. The Ute has a chance.

I just can't see the Regal being priced to 45k with the Lacross and Lucerne still above it. I don't understand the idea that a SWB Epsilon should compete with a G-body. Taurus, Maxima, or Avalon.

Pittsburgh-Living.com is the company I own. C&G uses it's old server. The account name with our host is still under Pittsburgh-living.com

if they use virtual private hosting, I'm all ears.

We're having problems with our host. We were migrated from one server to another server on the same host to relieve some congestion problems. I whole new set of problems cropped up. We're looking into it.

So BMW is playing catch up with Hyundai!

Well $h!! Now what will BMW do?

I wonder if it would be profitable for GM to open <someday, when they're semi-solvent> service stations via the franchisers around town. Have a few huge mega-dealers to sell the vehicles and then a ring of GM service stations with full warranty/OEM support.

sounds like you should have gotten snipped.

Regarding that first Nissan interior. At least the G6's airvents are all the same shape.

Two different wheelbases. The Regal is the smaller of the two. I don't understand why you (and Croc) want the Regal to compete with or think it will compete with the likes of the Avalon, Taurus, Lucerne, ES330, Genesis?!?, and TL. The Regal is Saab 9-3 sized and has a 4-cylinder as a base engine. Somehow, it's supposed to compete with some of the largest sedans on the market including those with optional V8s? Have some perspective please. Edit: Does the TSX compete with Lucerne and Taurus and Genesis? Does the S40?

Regal base engine

The failure of GM or Ford would likely take out all of the big three and severely damage everyone else.

it's not gay if you're not doing the sucking.

Croc, I appreciate what you're trying to say, but you have to remember that the new Lacrosse is there to. We agree that the Regal should compete with the TSX and Passat, but the TL, Genesis, and ES are all bigger vehicles. This Regal cannot be stretched up to $45k nor should it be. $45k is upper range LaCrosse. Think TSX v. TL
