[benzbubblecat]

lol a barn raising? Really, GM?

[jkltg60]

overpriced low quality parts

[stichy420]

GM no make Pontiac.

Me no buy GM.

[gooziddaiejoon]

gm=gifted motherfucker.

i hate gm, chrysler and ford. all of you go to hell. USA go to hell.

japan fuck usa and give us some hot screaming honda engines out here!

[MrThestig8]

@gooziddaiejoon Call me when your Hondas and Toyotas get their pedals stuck and drive into the pacific ocean. I'll be sitting here high and dry in my Caddy.

[soobwhale]

i call bullshit 

[brunonozferaz]

Vibrações Positivas !

watch?v=8SyfG0IOKNo

[keyinregulus3]

How is this 'commercial' supposed to encourage me to buy a GM now that they're government owned? Let the most efficient firm win.

[mucura1]

the only thing that ever came out of gm that was any good was the corvette and the silverado. corvette is a relliable supercar and silverado is one tough truck. Have a 96 with 350000 still going strong.

[08RamandRogue]

Stupid Government Motors let saab die.

I agree with DarthCybie, buy a Ford, these crooks don't deserve our money.

[MrThestig8]

@08RamandRogue Saab still exists. Their walking down death row at the moment, but they still exist.

[ericmknight1906]

too little too late

[PwincessNb]

grr i hate gm bought the worst car ever from them (BUICK) the biggest mistake ever.....

[88soulsurvivor]

GMC is next...lol then who??

[sugeska]

GMC is the next !

[sugeska]

Saab

1948-2009

R.I.P.

killing marriage

[banstaman]

I always wondered, can't they just sell it back to the Saab Corporation?

[bzzbt]

Koeningsegg wanted to buy Saab but Government Motors let it die because of fear of competition... imagine the second fastest car in the world owning Saab... Saab would become the new BMW! GMC (government motor crap) can't compete with such a car!

[DarthCybie]

Buy a Ford. They did not take our money.

Government Motors

[snakestang100]

ya, your sure fixing a lot by laying off people!!! oh and your deffinitely getting up there by charging more for a peice of shit camaro that isnt evn as fast as a mustang gt (which is cheaper). fuck chevy. its pretty funny that they even had to make a commercial about this lol. American car? most of gms cars are made in mexico and canada. how is that american. chevy sucks. their ceos have about as much experience as a fucking 1st grader.

[sugeska]

HAHAHAHA

HAHA :)

[justinaurelius]

This commercial makes me want to trade in my Acura.

For another Acura!

BWAHAHAHAHAH!!

[towlie7685]

we should support FORD because they didnt take our money.... they make better vehicles now anyways

[94TahoeDude]

not in a million years...

[Jflawless6t9]

@towlie7685 They perhaps are making better vehicles ... But they are trying to take our money... they are really over priced... 2010 F-150 KR 4x4 50,000.00 ... you use to be able to buy a F-250 4x4 Kingranch diesel for that much...

[Heezy2090]

my tax money went toward GM to save the company from going bankcrupt (that failed) and towards AIG(who by the way gave out million dollar bonuses anyways to the CEO and other "high up" employees. Great bailout Obama

[avrilsdream]

And to pay for retiree pensions and benefits of all its affiliates (Packard, Delphi, etc.) after they whined "but you promised!!!" loud enough, after 30 years of matching wire colors for $30/hour.

[avrilsdream]

No one really gives a shit about GM. If Wal Mart made cars, they would be GMs. They're just overpriced discount (?) vehiclesj (like getting a $100 pair of pleather shoes from Payless). GM died in 1970 and has decomposed to nothing ever since. RIP Generic Motors. GM's praying that Obama gives enough rednecks enough taxpayer money to buy a new Camaro, GM's latest abortion of a great classic, following the SSR and GTO's epic failures.

[MinotauroUFC]

The fourth generation GTO's (2004-2006) were indeed an epic failure. I don't even know how they could of been called GTO's.

[avrilsdream]

People will still argue that somehow. They should have been called Cavalier (followed by letters that make it seem like something techy off Star Trek (Cavalier ZXP5000RT-6). I think I had a Huffy in 1983 with the designations that follow most GM "special edition" cars, denoting carpeted cup holders.

[redbeakman]

Saturn is dead. Penske did not close.

Government Mortos is a failure and a taxpayer bailout of the unions.

[voltaicryan]

Saturn was bought by Penske.

[Dustin91]

Exactly what i was talking about with a guy before. Gm should keep chevy/gmc buick and pontiac. But its caddilac instead..

I'll be GM forever. Chevy trucks last forever.

[queensguido]

y would u get rid of cadillac?

[Dustin91]

Well they should have kept pontiac too, the new g8s were nice, and they were talking about having a new firebird... I just hope GM stays around as long as i live because i LOVE gm!

I'm a chevy guy at heart, always will be!

[queensguido]

i think 1 day GM will just b chevy and cadillac

[Dustin91]

I dont know man, buick makes some nice cars the 2010 lecrosse is beautifull it looks like a high end luxury car. They probably should have eliminated GMC tho. Just chevy/cadillac/buick. I cant believe how things are going now a days in the car industry. Its these damn foriegn cars!!

[queensguido]

if i had 2 pick a buick it'd b the lucerne super... it would make a strong case against a DTS at this point. the problem now is that cadillac isnt as nice as it was 10 years ago and buick is 1 nicer its almost like there startin 2 morph into 1 which spells more trouble ahead. All this trouble with our car companies is the result of wat america made durin the 80s. deep down i believe there was a huge buyout from the foreign companies 2 the american companies so the americans would purpousely make

[queensguido]

(continued) shit. that would open the door 4 the reliable japanese cars and the luxurious german cars. but american companies werent gonna go bankrupt over nite this process was gonna take years but in the end the foreigners outsmarted us cuz there all laughin at our cars now... i really do love GM though i gotta agree. i will however say that of the 3 cars i own, 99 STS 00 Accord EX V6 and Explorer Limited V8 the accord runs likes its brand new while both my american cars r constant trouble

[Dustin91]

I'll agree with most of that, but GM is comming out with the new volt, and cruze with the option of the 2.0L TDI. Sort of like the jetta tdi. So i'm sure that will be good. Ahh i just dont like jap cars whatsoever. I had a 02 volkswagon jetta 5spd and it was okay i got a good deal on it but i traded it for my 98 chevy tahoe 4x4. The new mailibus are really nice and ive watched videos of them on here and they seem to be very reliable...

[Jflawless6t9]

@Dustin91 Jap cars are far more reliable than american cars.. sorry ... I drive a IS350 maybe its a misunderstanding... but vw is german... P.S. Newer gm products are straitup fuckin trash... they are now on dodges level... I loved my o'l gmc but their new trucks are embarrassing.

[Jflawless6t9]

@Dustin91 why eliminate gmc? im a chevy man at heart too but man... gmc is the nice part about chevy... if they stopped making gmc i'd buy ford...

[boringlecture]

Fuck GM, these morons still have 4 brands, why not just work on a few nice cars so they don't end up getting another 50 billion dollars

[MockEmpire]

CULT URE

[TechForThought]

(Continuation: All lawsuits against the old GM are void for the most part (see 20/20 episode about GM). So all companies that GM killed of are up for grabs right?

[TechForThought]

so they kept basically 3 lines that are the same?!?!? Buick and Cadillac kinda work cause Cadillac is a higher luxury while Buick is the mercury of GM. BUT GMC AND CHEVROLET are practically the same cars. I just dont understand how it helps them. They should have kept the slower sale pontiac and revamped it. That way you have chevy as your basic, buick as your midway, cadillac as luxury, and pontiac as performance. Its called leveling. Having GMC doesnt work

[prckay]

not many poeple are buyinh Trucks any more under GMC

Pontiac was the Number one brand here in CANADA

[TechForThought]

exactly. Now that i think about it, if someone brought Pontiac, Saturn, and Saab together, they'd be a good company. Saturn as your basic, Pontiac as midrange/performance, and Saab as luxury. It would work. They would just need improved quality

[prckay]

Why doesnt GM keep Pontiac

why wnt they explain to us

[prckay]

Pontiac is not For Sale

it being phased out do you think it will return

[TechForThought]

i think it will. They wont keep it because the sales are slow. But thats because 4-5 of there cars are rebadges EX: The torrent, The G5, The G3, and solstice. The others are normal. Pontiac died because of GM's bad concepts. What do you think of the idea to use saab, pontiac, and saturn. Even if pontiac isnt for sale someone could use it. What is GM going to do. A court would rule in favor of the new company because pontiac is no longer a part of GM. It is part of the old dead Gm

[prckay]

do you think Pontiac Will Return even if it is being phaed out

i dont think the Pontiac Saturn Sabb woud work

but maybe

[mjolnirv17777777]

my dad still has a jobn for gm and he though the same thing, he said ditch gmc and get pontiac back, "the reason pontiac is because its more diverse", but he also said they had to keep cars that are recognized over seas

[colombiano2411]

i heard that 60% of GM is owned by the states 12% owned by Canada and the 28% left over by investors

[supermmarcos]

that´s deep.

[arquivoitalia]

l'unica cosa che posso dire è che la GM che abbiamo conosciuto non c'è più.

[autobr]

A GM não perde tempo mesmo. Aposto que muita gente vai se sensibilizar tal propaganda. Agora, na prática, a recuperação da GM será muito mais difícil e sofrida do que a ideia transmitica pela propaganda.

[magno11111]

Estatização? Barack Obama = Hugo Chavez

[GurgelBrasil]

Ao contrário dos EUA, França, Coreia, etc, etc... o Brasil simplesmente desprezou a única montadora que teve e ignorou sua falência.

[FACEeUFMG]

Essa é a política dos EUA: Faça o que eu digo, mas não faça o que eu faço. Quem imaginaria os EUA estatizando suas empresas para bancar seus prejuizos?

[patela18]

Only Ford will survive
