I won't go so far as to say they're "junk". We do things on a business model, here, though.

Cost of procurement + cost of maintenace (over a period of time) offset by cost of re-sale.

I don't like the big three's chances in that equation.Note there is NOWHERE in my business equation for "emotion". I didn't stab anyone in the back. I made a business decision.

I have a GMC Yukon and a Chrysler (Jeep Wrangler) that "I" own. Honestly....I paid $24K for the (list) $46K Yukon when it was a year old 2003 (35Kmi.). I paid $1K for the 2003 Jeep, this year (48Kmi.). If I had to pay reatial (or close) for them....I'd have researched a similar model to the business example.

People don't like it whenothers tell them whatdeer to shoot.....but it's OK to tell someone else what they shoud buy with THEIR money???

Twisted isthe word that comes to mind.
