I emailed GM just to see what the party line was. Their answer?

the same cheap electrical tape GM thinks is wonderful....(c;

I don't own a GM product and never will. I owned a Chevy truck once
and hated it, never have been a GM guy. Then against my better
judgement and because she got a good deal, my sister in law got a
Pontiac Montana van, with 20,000 miles on it. I know why the person
that bought it new got rid of it, it was a pure piece of crap! Little
nit picking things all of the time, like the LCD readout on the stereo
would screw up, the adjuster for the serpentine belt just fell off one
day, the sensor for the power side door would go wacky and the door
would either not close, not open, or do both about half way for a few
minutes, and on and on!


On the other hand, I loved my pickup and am wishing I'd kept it. After 12
years and 130K miles (or thereabouts), it ran like a champ.

I got my nephew to agree that I get first dibs on it if he ever decides to
sell or trade it in.

Same with my Jeep, only getting close to three times the mileage of
your truck! When someone comments on my new truck, I still tell them I
miss driving the Jeep sometimes!

Interesting Wal*Mart sticker from the guy who would never shop there.


Ooooops.....



Yeah, it was attached to a DVD I bought on line in 2005, and had I used
it before it expired last year, I could have gotten 10 free prints at
Wal-Mart. But I don't shop at Wal-Mart. I have no idea why I kept the
damned thing.


ROTFL!!



What are you laughing at? I kept a coupon and I don't know why. That's
silly.
You spent your career in the Army. That's dumb.


Harry, look at what you do with a little personal information!

In any case, not too dumb. The Army sends me, annually, about the
equivalent of the interest on a $1,000,000 CD at today's rates. I'll take
it!

It's not dumb, Krause, to serve in the Army. What is dumb is to
ALWAYS engage in self aggrandizement, including constantly lying and
denigrating others.

Krause, you son of a bitch, what's "dumb" about being in the Army. Some
might say, more accurately in my opinion, that being a mouthpiece flack for
a labor union, is dumb.

That's my story, and I am sticking to it.


That was my first thought, too. He took the picture and didn't notice it?

So you have a Jeep with how many miles on it? 200,000?

That pot grower with the Basskisser handle had a POS Jeep, too.
Coincidence? Not a chance in hell, Sally.

I have a Snap On tool box in my garage. While the garage door was
open, the neighbor's cat came in and sprayed **** on the bottom lip
and bottom drawer of the tool box. I smelled it, then saw it, wiped it
off before it was dry, and the next day the paint was bubbled up and
peeling off.


They oughta market it. Probably cleans chrome bumpers too.
If there are any chrome bumpers.

I recall hearing a saying a long time ago about 'sucking the chrome off
a bumper', but I don't think it was in reference to cat urine. I guess
I'm back to googling again...
