GM turns 100 today

[archemedes]

Oh GM, keeps the mechanics of this nation a steady supply of broken cars to fix.

It's one of the most mismanaged American companies out there and if it wasn't for government subsidies and support they would have disappeared long ago.

I like how their brand new trucks come from the factory with piston knock. Mismachined blocks causing oil leaks requiring engine replacements that you have to fight like hell to get. They are cursed and have had reliability problems from day one.

GM = General Mishap

C = Cheap
H = Heap
E = Every
V = Valve
R = Rattles
O = Oil
L = Leaks
E = Every
T = Time

I will admit I do like a few of the old 50's and 60's Chevys.

I buy mostly Gm (having been a mechanic they are cheaper to fix) I have owned a Honda (worst car on the planet there is a reason there are 30 honda only mechanics in my area) Toyota has even said they are trying to match GM's actual reliability (most domestic buyers are slack onmaintenance, but yet GM has 3 cars in the top 10 most reliable in JD powers or at least did the last time I looked) all major companies have recalls (toyota for one recalled every car they made for 3 years in a row)

Have a nice day, i know i will :D

..especially if i can get my hands on this chrome front grill from this old abondoned 50's Chevy PU so i can fabricate a grill/drip catch for the lower "kick panel" area to conceal the exchanger. ...lowest temp setting holds the empty fridge a consistent 36-39 degrees, coldest gets as low as 2-5 degrees! damn they used to know how to make shit right back in the day!
