2011 GM vehicles.

Hm. Like what time? I gave my cousin a ride to the Smithfield parade earlier at like one?

[stealthee]

Nah, it was later. Around 7 or so. I was headed home from Smithfield from a family picnic. Didn't think it was you, paint looked too faded. It had black wheels. Couldn't remember what wheels you are running.

[NotMaiCar]

Oh wait, he had my car. We have his truck at my place putting his front driveshaft in. Leave it up to him to forget all the bolts. If it had red halos then it was mine. He wasn't like beating on my car was he? Not that he could really cause anymore damage but it is still my only running vehicle lol.

[stealthee]

I didnt see the halos, thats why I was trying to figure out if it was your car.

I wasn't running extrememly hard, and he was a little ways behind me, so I'd say no.

Did you get the timing fixed so you arent burning so much fuel to get to work and back?

[NotMaiCar]

Yeah, I had a frind at work help me set the timing correctly. One of the perks of working at a service garage, I suppose lol.

Next time we get a chance I'll have to tell you about the engine I picked up for the stealth lol.

Getting back on topic.... Does it really matter what GM say anyway? I assume dealerships over there are run the same as here. They are franchise owned so it would be very silly for the dealer to deny the warranty claim because the oil is wrong. That's cutting out their lively hood. I would be very suprised if anyone gets their warranty voided by this.

Why would anyone buy a car from a company that was so horribly mismanaged and rotten from the inside out that it failed. Why would you buy any car that still uses rear drum brakes and uses steel wheels?

I refused to look at GM when we bought her new car because of this.

We did stop by a Ford dealer, and while we ended up getting a killer deal on a '10 Mazda 6, I was really impressed with the jump up in interior quality of Fords since ~2008.

Agreed, Fords make amazing interiors these days, and I am a Ford hater.

I will have to take a look.

Hehe, yeah. I was going to finish the thread title with "will still be utterly hopeless piles of garbage."

I'd have to agree. The interior is nice. However, my last two Escapes could have had better fit and finish. However, nothing on the shit level of a GM product.
