    Now that you mention it (the TV ad), the first H2's ironic choice of background music comes back to haunt us. And it feels like that you're with me or against me And it feels like that your promises are omens And it feels like that to push me is to shove me And it feels like that the only way is the wrong way Did you think that I could be your crutch? Did you think that life could mean so much? Did you think that this could end in bust? Did you think that this is plain old lust? Everytime they tried to make me change They just wear me down with more chains And it feels like the only way is the wrong way And it feels like the only way is the wrong way The only way is the wrong way You always push me down http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cs14yDCGppc

    I guess if he's saying "on an urgent basis" he means that GM will give an employee discount on the sale price to anyone who expresses an interest, maybe low rate or zero finance as well. Hey, maybe even cashback..... as an added incentive.

    What if oel really dips down to $80/barrel then the General will be shooting himself again. Is like selling stocks on the first hint of market soften. U sold at the lowest price on a Flyday afternoon. Comes Monday morn it bounce back 20 points. Doesnt it hurts?

    If oil does dip to $80 a barrel, it will be only temporarily. I think GM and most consumers have already figured that out. Notice the lack of a run on gas guzzlers in the wake of the current 20% drop in oil prices.
