Or look at it like this.. GM needs Billions of dollars.. there's a thousand million in ONE billion and X cost .5 million or ONE-TWO-THOUSANDTHS or One Billion dollars. lol

Things need to be kept in scale. Plus the build was done well over a year ago.
I know it was built a while back. I guess when I hear they lost like 4 billion or whatever the amount in the first quarter, I can't even fathom that amount. So it would seem that they are falling off a cliff since I don't know that the 4 billion dollar figure is like $1 toward $100,000. It makes me feel better that it is bad but not that bad. Oh and the build team, and the fact that you know that, cool. LOL! And that you drove Proj X, even cooler! I guess when you are a moderator for a forum like this, there's perks. Oh yeah, and the magazine thingy helps too right?
