We're marking the anniversary of the time Robert Farago started the GM death watch and called for the company to die.
Go check it out here and see how things have -- and haven't -- changed since May 28, 2009.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Some lovely Ford vehicles in this video.
@NormSV650 not all companies got monies from the gov. Focus and Fiesta were being produced way before this mishap in the gov.
At least Ford did everything it could do to NOT get the assistance. GM got a huge payout and they really didn't deserve it. As for banks...don't really care because I don't bank with huge corporates that are in it for the money, so to say. I deal with credit unions. This isn't the point.
Any company that are manufacturing their products out of the US, gets what they deserve, unfortunately.
Bring it home and I will gladly put them into consideration when it comes to purchasing their products. I don't want to find out later that the product that was manufactured in China now has all of my personal information and is hearing my conversations that I am having in my car because they bugged the car.
China is sneaky and I don't buy Apple products because if that reason alone.
Sad it just reminded me how good TTAC once was … required daily reading.
It's worked perfectly for me. Google maps is quite good and music streaming is flawless.
