Replying to: rockylee (Apr 27, 2009 10:51 pm) Yep, unions are great. I heard on the radio here in So Cal the other day that the "teacher of the year" in a local school district, awarded only two months ago, was LAID off due to budget cuts! That's because this teacher was low on the seniority scale. Let's not brown nose and let the excellent ones rise to the top! Reward mediocrity and laziness at all costs! At least the old dog teachers with all those years of experience got to keep their jobs....

Replying to: gagrice (Apr 28, 2009 10:22 am) I have driven a few 2007+ Silverado's and was impressed with each one of them. I think the GMT-900 is the best made truck in the world.  GM and the UAW are paying now for the sins in their past. That is just the way it is. It took me 30 years to forgive Toyota for their shoddy engine in the 1964 Toyota Land Cruiser. Why should the consumer treat GM any differently? Personally I don't think that GM has gotten better. I think Toyota starting with their new models in 2007 came down to GM level. The 2008 Sequoia and Tundra are not only ugly, they are not in a league with the 2007 models. I deal fairly and have given my share to GM. Outside of the door hinges on the drivers side was there anything else that went wrong??? If you think going from 50% to 18% market share in two decades is a bragging right. I'm happy for you. They will be lucky to have 15% by the end of the decade. Not bragging rights. It is sad what has happened. We were on the right track until the 2008 crash.  -Rocky
