The guy with the forester is gonna take Scotty's advice and get a honda CRV. In a few months he'll write in again because he has gas in the oil of his honda.
I love your stuff, Scotty, but I think you got this wrong. The simple reason GM (and others) have such poor quality is a perfect storm between corporate greed + worker entitlement attitude + neither side feeling any sense of responsibility toward the consumer. The penny-pinchers in the corporate offices are cheaping their way into oblivion by paying inordinately more attention to cost than to quality, the unions have effectively made their members' services too expensive to compete in a global market, and neither side is willing to compromise to produce a vehicle the average American can rely on for 6-10 years.
To summarize:
Too cheap + too expensive + who cares = we're screwed
Only good car GM has made recently was the Chevy Volt, but they just discontinued it this year.
Does anyone ever wonder if GM went back to making the old boxy pickups from the 90s, but with modern day mandated features, and dropped their prices dramatically, that would save them? To me, vehicles are getting so piled down with complexity, the factories can't afford to make them and we can't afford to drive and maintain them.
The big problem is the management just building cheezy crap with substandard parts. The management just passes through every few years making the quarterly numbers look good and leave with multi-million dollar bonuses. Once they were the biggest car company, but no one is being fooled into purchasing vehicles. Their real people aren't real.
Whaaaaattt Scotty didn’t suggest to get the Rav 4 ?
Well I Hope FORD Doesnt Start messing things up as well. I'm Not Saying they are PERFECT Though
lol yeeae that
It should've gone the way of the dodo long time ago. Funny, the last best GM cars I ever rode were my uncle's 77 Vista Cruiser, my stepdad's 74 Laguna, 400 and all the bells and whistles; and last but not least, a 1982 Opel Senator, that bested the others and we ended up bringing it to the US. The Senator attracted a lot of people who never saw one and my stepdad sold it to the owner of a foreign car service in Salem, Mass, who knew what he was buying. That Opel exists nowadays with about 200,000 miles and running like new! Then the 1981 Rover 3500 SD1, bought new in 1984, great car with the Buick aluminum V8, but that's for another day.
It wouldn't cost much to bribe some GM execs and board members to shut down US operations for transfer to China. ??
