GM (aka Govt Motors) owes Uncle Sam $50 billion US yet they still spend copiously....OPM (other peoples money) I guess.

How they were allowed to stay in business beats me :blink:

Read a newspaper article a couple of weeks ago that Holdens market share is dropping rapidly while Ford's has been steady and Toyota's climbing. Looked like Toyota would be number one selling car in AUS in 3-4 years, followed by Ford and then Holden.

I think a lot of it comes down to the massive spread of models they have. It's certainly not because their servicing prices are low!

Its funny how much better Ford US is doing financially compared to the struggling GM …

ummm.... http://www.autoblog.com/2010/11/10/general-motors-announces-q3-profit-of-1-96-billion-ahead-of-ipo/

Bailout aside that is a better result than Ford's Q3 isn't it?
