Instead this is, Im going to have my car for the next 5-10 years and in year 4 I want to make sure its still going to have a warranty so when something goes bad someone can fix it.
Did everybody read that? If GM survives on only 20% of its customers, assuming that GM customers are the average consumer, then it would not survive bankruptcy.
