Reliability Report of Japanese automakers
Drew Dowdell replied to mustang84's topic in Site News and Feedback
Before my CTS I only had cars over 100k miles. All domestics, mostly GM <one Ford>. -
Marketshare doesn't concern me as much as profit or total sales numbers. Remember, it is entirely possible for market share to go down while sales numbers are increasing <not the case here>. Think about it this way. Honda's market share has gone up. Well, yeah! 10 years ago they didn't have a truck, and they had re-badge Isuzus for their SUV and Mini-van. Market share is a way to prop up the Japanese makes as "winning the war" against the american brands. BS If marketshare was such an issue why are Porche and VW still around. VW's sales have tanked recently. If GM can make better cars, more profitably, at 25% marketshare then it can at 30% market share then it should aim for 25%. GM needs to continue with great designs. Profitablilty will follow.

No joke... there is a dealer nearby that used to be an Olds/Plymouth/Jeep/Eagle. They lost Eagle... then Plymouth. Kept Olds right up to the bitter end, but added Daewoo in the meantime. Now he sells Kia and Jeep. What a glutton for punishment.

I always liked the Mark VIIIs if they were in LSC trim <body colour grill>. In black I think they kinda look batmobileish.

Loooove the taillights on the Milan! BV, do you think it's disturbing that I've been to every one of those dealerships?

I'm gonna say that is a "gear" selector for a CVT.

Say goodbye to your police fleet sales Ford.

I put Dunlop M3 Wintersports on the CTS. I have to have them to get out of my driveway in as little as an inch of snow. I have a VERY steep driveway.

But you get further on a gallon of diesel then you do on a gallon of gasoline in the same car.

Thus proving there is no accounting for taste.

Oh, and I was on the same plane once as a woman who was on TLC's What Not to Wear.

I drove past Paris Hilton at the Breakers Resort in Palm beach once. When I was working as a clerk in a software store, I rung up Steven King.

BUT DOES IT HAVE BETTER SIGNAL RECEPTION?!? It can give the best blow jobs in the world for all I care but if I drop calls 3 times on the way home from work it doesn't do me much good as a phone now does it?

Could we have a pin of the Autoshow schedules for the year? I'm thinking about attending Detroit and NYC. I don't know when they are. It might be nice to also sync up with other C&Gers who are going to be attending.
