What is this discussion about? Car Buying

With parts coming from everywhere, does "Buying American" have much meaning anymore? Is quality and price the bottom line?

Appealing to loyal GM buyers, whose numbers dwindle every year, is not the path to long-term success.

Replying to: obyone (Dec 18, 2008 9:24 am) Yes, as gagrice says, I want this one also but for this there is no consideration. It's a done deal when cash is at hand!!! This is my color!
