    Chevy Volt a lemon for GM. Current administration makes sour lemonade.

    Actually I do work at a DC area dealership and have sold 5 or 6 Volts and have a few more on order. If we had 100 of these, I could actually make some decent money. I have not heard of any government agency's mandating it's use. I'm not sure what you mean by the inventory glut of other GM...

    Chevy Volt a lemon for GM. Current administration makes sour lemonade.

    For 1G1RD6E42BU101006, it's the demo at Ourisman Marlow Heights. On the website it is showing MSRP on their website $49,690. Actual MSRP is $44,695. It can't be sold for 6 months(they got it in January). Either that or nobody is paying $5k over. Ourisman Bowie has been known to mark up cars over...

    Chevy Volt a lemon for GM. Current administration makes sour lemonade.

    It could be a number of things. They could be asking over MSRP and therefore they are sitting a little before a person who wants to pay that comes around. They could have been orders that cancelled when it came in and they have just become available or might still be intransit. It could also be...

    Chevy Volt a lemon for GM. Current administration makes sour lemonade.

    The stupidity and ignorance that is displayed on ET is exactly why I don't call myself a Republican anymore. Why don't you get your facts straight before you spread your lies? The Chevy dealership that I work at has about an 8 month waiting list on Volt's right now. We are having no probably...

    Stop paying credit cards. Give yourself a bailout!!

    Not that it matters or you care, but I do know that. However they sent me one of those policy update things in like type 2 font with all this legal stuff in there. I saw that they said 23.99% and thought that they were changing the default rate. I said to myself that I don't have to worry about...

    Stop paying credit cards. Give yourself a bailout!!

    A little over 2 years ago, I gave Chase the middle finger when they raised my interest rate from 8 to 24% despite 100% perfect credit history on every loan I had ever had. Felt real bad about it at first, especially when they would call 15 times a day. But I ran out of money and I would have...

    HAHA.... ALLY (GMAC) financial, you know the one that got a BAIL OUT!!!!

    I don't know which cars you are talking about and why do all you people joke about Obama running Government Motors and such? It sounds so stupid. I saw in another post of yours that you said "Obama wants to force us to drive electric cars." Number 1, nobody's forcing anybody to drive...

    HAHA.... ALLY (GMAC) financial, you know the one that got a BAIL OUT!!!!

    If you are asking if there are a bunch of strings attached, none that I am aware of. It is a fixed rate, generally for 5 years. Also, there is no prepayment penalty (in Maryland at least). I'm not sure what you mean is it available to employees. It is available to the entire public (based on...

    HAHA.... ALLY (GMAC) financial, you know the one that got a BAIL OUT!!!!

    I work for a Chevy dealer and over the past several months, ALLY has been offering "down payment assistance" programs on certain cars. Right now you can get a $2005 ($3005 last month) rebate for financing a Silverado at standard rates. Not sure if Chevy or ALLY is paying for that and how all...

    WallStreet - Money Never Sleeps - comments

    I just saw it last night. I thought it was OK. It kind of lacked a plot a little bit. I do like how they fictionalized the actual events, i.e. Bears Stearns and Chase. I'm surprised they put that "this motion picture is a work fiction. Any similarities to actual events is purely coincidental"...

    Perpetual, I spent 100K to go to school and cannot earn income.

    I would mostly disagree with what you said. Think about it. At 49 she has what, 10-15 years of working left, at least? A person who is 49 and looking for a job is looking for something stable where they can work awhile. They aren’t going to work somewhere to gain skills and then leave for...

    GM wants to re-enter auto financing

    And you should stick to what you know, which clearly isn't a whole lot. First off, GM has already paid back its loans in full, with interest, 5 years ahead of schedule. Secondly, have you driven a Chevy lately? I sell them, but I also can sell Chyrsler, Jeep, Dodge, Honda and Nissan. Sometimes I...

    GM Loses $4.3B Since Bankruptcy, Needs $12.3B to Fund Its Pension

    MODS! MODS! Who’s the moderator of this forum? This post does not comply with typical ET thinking and must be deleted immediately. I would have to disagree with one thing. Chevy’s are really great cars. They have more Consumer Digest best buys than any other brand. I believe that every...

    Spiralling Outta Control... Democrats Seek Millionaire Tax Surcharge

    I’m sorry, amidst your incoherent ramblings, I seem to have missed these stats you are talking. Could you repeat them?

    Spiralling Outta Control... Democrats Seek Millionaire Tax Surcharge

    Are you sure you are telling the whole story here? “The Sun, the Post and the conservative-financed Marylandreporter.com all noted that the number of Maryland millionaires dropped by 30% since the tax was imposed.” Yet compared to the national drop in millionaires from 9.2 to 6.7...

    Spiralling Outta Control... Democrats Seek Millionaire Tax Surcharge

    Young people don’t know any better because we have very little to lose. Old people think its theft and then turn around and collect their social security, their medicare, pensions, live in their homes with inflated values that young people will probably never be able to afford. I believe...

    Spiralling Outta Control... Democrats Seek Millionaire Tax Surcharge

    I thought this thread was about a millionaire tax? You said to do the opposite of it to juice your local economy. However the opposite of the millionaire tax is not what you suggested. The opposite of the millionaire tax is a strict reduction in the INCOME TAXES of those making over a...

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    Yes redistributing and adding to. A pizza shop employs people to do a job. The food they buy employs farmers. The buildings they build employ workers. The food they transport employs truckers. The truckers pay fuel taxes that build roads. And the food they serve is paid for by people who...

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    I never said trading has no real purpose, just hedge funds like this guy was trying to set up. Global financial markets are very useful in many aspects. An airline can buy fuel months in advance so that they can accurately price their tickets. An American company does business with a German...

    From CEO to pizza delivery driver

    You say they traded their way to profits and then redistributed that money to charity. Where do you think the profits come from? You have to take it from someone. As was stated earlier by others, nothing of real value has been added, it’s just being redistributed. At least deliverying pizza is...
