go buy some GM stock!

Let's see, after the government bail-out, I think I own a bunch of General Motors stock. They have come out with a few good cars, some from the 70s were really cool. I can't seem to focus on what they've done right, all I can think about is what they did wrong, especially after ever how many billions of dollars we got invested in them. Look at a few of the stupid things they've done in the past 20 or 30 years and I think we could have just flushed our money down the toilet.....


Back in high school, a buddy of mine had one, we called it a "shit-vette".

Chevette










Citation, followed the Chevette and looked like it came out of its butt. (key word: hatch-back or faux SUV???)



Take the cheapest car Chevy makes, put some chrome and leather seats on it and call it a Cadillac, yea, that works. (Cimarron)









Lumina APV. WTF?


The Pontiac Aztec: what the hell is it? I didn't know then and don't know now.


A GMC Envoy with a retactable roof. It was advertised as "professional grade". What profession are you in that you need a $30,000 station wagon that you can stand up in the back off?
An Uplander, Chevy's 502nd try at a minivan. They still goofed it up. A minivan aint pretty but could you make it any uglier?
Finally, the Malibu Maxx:Have you seen this on the road? Is there any one that says "Ohh, boy, I'll be looking sharp in that!"

I've come up with a couple of bad ideas but nobody ever gave me a few billion dollars to come up with a few more. I hope somebody else is driving now......
