I dont know how true this is but it came from a friend who knows someone at GM. Maybe those of you who work for or have connections at GM can shed some light on the subject. Rumor is that Toyota is going or talking about bying GM out.

This is the only rumor I could find on that.

I hope that is a rumor. I think that would be a bad decision for GM and Americans.

Toyota is making money hand over fist, now why would they take on the legacy costs and the UAW?...Whoever started that "rumor" needs to put the pipe down...

I sure hope not. I've heard that rumor a couple months ago and was told by my friend at GM that it was just a rumor and not to worry. If it does happen, that's when I'll wander over to Ford (ugh, a shiver just ran down my spine) or to Chrylser. I like German-American cars better than the Jap-American ones.
