Default GM/Chrysler question

How many "new" vehicles are they going to make? Since all their previous cars have a bad reputation they think just calling them something new will erase their bad reputation. They can't make a "cavalier" any more because everyone knows a cavalier is crap, so lets make a "Cruise". Chrysler and GM are both guilty of it, I can't even keep up with all the new names they have.

Cavalier -> Cobalt
oh wait... Vega -> Cavalier -> Cobalt

Everyone plays games with names. Audi dropped the 80, 100, etc names from USA after the bad reputation of the old old 100-LS. So they called it the Audi 5000 when it went into it's next generation.

Well i own a GM and now my first honda..

So far i've owned the honda for 3 full days.. People kept telling me honda's we're better then GM's maybe because my GM is a 06 and the honda is a 98 with 248,000 km's and my gm has 115,000 km's but too me my GM is faster, quieter on the highway, but the honda gets better mileage, rides better but is louder then the GM...

I'd say every car has a weakness of some sort best mileage i got with my GM on highway at 65 mph 105 kph was 26.52 mpg
