They roll out these concept cars etc & resort to this game, and they wonder why those Sales & marketing. Bye Bye GM. Fossilized being. Your Heyday has come & gone. Toyota is #1.
Leave it to the Hummer-driving assholes!

Coming from Vermont, I am aware of their strong environmental push. Vermont is one of the only unspoiled states left, and it must stay that way. I think this is great. Good for Vermont! Stand up to those Hummer-driving, McMansion-owning bastards at Ford and GM. Take your 7MPG and shove it.
