As for America not buying American, its all perception. Â*Why is it that when the G6 was "recalled" for a missing page in its owners manual, it was on every news report, but when Toyota recalled 1.3 million cars last week, I didnt hear jack?
What about all the Prius's getting recalled for electrical problems?
What about the Scion tC's roof breaking and injuring the passangers?
What about the US Goverment probe into Toyota's failing air bags?
What about Honda's on going problem with there 5spd auto's?
How about spontanious combustion of the new Mazda 5?
How many of you knew about the above recalls?
Its perception. Â*GM has won many JD quality awards from there cars to there plants, and still no one will give GM a second thought. Â*There cars are at the levels of the imports or greater, yet no one is coming out to buy one. Â*One thing that is sort of hurting GM right now is the Employee Pricing seemed to have done such a great job, that no one wants to buy cars right now!! Â*
As for budging on pricing, they LOWERD the price of all there cars, some by 3k or so, added more standard features, AND are still giving rebates.

so i will respond with why are we still buying foreign? something has to be swaying people to buy japanese and german.
the equinox is supposedly selling half decently so they only discounted the price by 1k. i was hoping for a good 2 or 3k price break but they would only give me 9k off on a trailblazer instead
