Yep, frustrated about GM.
When I was looking for a car a few years ago, I noticed the Saturns. GM took Opels with good fuel economy, brought them to the US, slammed bigger engines in them, and made fuel economy suck.
I bought a Honda.
The GMC Terrain piqued my interest recently. Motorweek liked it. AWD is good for where I go in the winter. And I could finally cart a kayak around. 32mpg highway? Eh, not bad for what it is. Just get the manual transmission, and maybe hypermile a little. What? No manual transmission in a GMC AWD SUV!!!?!?!?!!!?!?! Huh?
For whom does GM build cars in the US anyway? It's probably for the guys who whined about slow acceleration and low HP of the diminutive T.25 City Car (see recent article on Wired).
