glatt, tw said that's not possible. Obviously somebody slipped you a Honda with GM badges on it.

I blame it on my Dad. He was an avid Chevy fan. A Chevy was parked in our drive the entire time I was growing up. My first car was a powder puff blue VW bug. Man, I loved that car. Wish I still had it today.

I will admit to owning two GM cars so far.

One was a 1987 Cavalier and it would not die. Other than one boiled battery due to a faulty voltage regulator and the odd burned out light bulb, it didn't stop. It might have been a dent magnet, but it RAN!

Now I have an Avalanche, a car I've wanted for some time. It runs too but time will tell as it's only an '07. So far, no complaints other than my wife's driving, which can hardly be blamed on the vehicle. OK, maybe that blind spot when backing, but if I install a backup camera, that will be taken care of.
