[/align]My fellow hunters, it DOES matter what kind of car you drive. It matters for over 1 million American workers and 457,000 retirees that count on GM for their pension. It matters to the 1.1 million Americans that depend on GM for their health care.

I've already disproven the myth that Toyota quality exceeds GM (see my earlier post). I'm just trying to get the FACTS out so you guys can make an informed decision with DATA instead of heresay.
