    WetWilly, I'd rather own just about any GM product than Hyundai suspension-challenged garbage, including their 'halo' Genesis, any day of the week? Have you driven in that suspension-schizophrenic mobile?

    Hmmm...maybe this is my chance for the cheap G8 I've been coveting...

    "Divestitures are not eligible for this program." So no Saabs, right? Or does it mean no Saab employees? If they were idling plants and taking other steps to reduce inventory and clean up the business, I'd take this a little more seriously. This is just an attempt to turn existing GM employees into Amway reps. If they were serious about this, they would drop the price on every new GM car and stop building new ones until inventory was down to a reasonable level. You know that's coming soon anyway, so why act like it's not?

    Aren't all taxpaying US Citizens GM employees nowadays?
