We are really screwed now!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just watched a TV add. It was from GM. It said we all need to pull together and buy a GM car or truck. Then it said if you loose your job we will pay your payment. When they we I don't think they mean GM will make that payment for you. We the tax paying people will make that payment. This is so screwed up when they are we if you can understand what I am saying. This is kind of like a redneck family tree. It has no branches. I should rush right out there and buy me a new GM truck so you guys can make the payments for me. Do you get what I am saying here? This is crazy and now I know GM will go under. Dale

Dale,
I heard that add also. Said they would make your payments, up to $500 per month , for 9 months. They will also give you $2000 for any inneficient car you trade in for a fuel efficient one.  Like you, I wonder how many cars the taxpayers will pay for.

as far as them paying your payment. If you take that deal when you do your contract, it is actually an insurance policy you pay for in the deal with the vehicle.  So the insurance companies will get rich, so they can have a corporate party.  If you lose your job you file a claim.  The companies doing this are ust trying to make themselves look good.

I think that this is a new twist on an old game Dale.

Around these parts, the individual dealers will offer great savings on most models just because they know that it is tax time. They know that most of what they sell will be Re-Poed but they will still collect a bunch of those (tax returns) from those that are not smart enough to realize that they cannot make a payment on a consistant basis.
