That is fantastic. I like the dig at Toyota and its Prius at the end there. I also love the amazing frankness with which Bob and Scott speak. They just don't BS us, and that is one of the best things about being a Chevy fan. I love how Scott openly admits that at times it has been hard to be a GM fan. He and Bob admit there have been screwups along the way. With the new Malibu, they admitted the whole time that they had a lot to make up for, and the new Malibu is an honest attempt to do just that. No more apologies, they are just going to make an honest-to-goodness good car. With the Volt, Bob candidly admitted that it needed dramatic restyling because putting it in a wind tunnel was, to use his exact words "depressing" and that it might have been better if they put it in backwards. So when they tell us that we're gonna love our new Camaro, and that Chevy is going to be doing great things for fuel economy, then I really, really feel that I can believe them. Thank you Bob and Scott.
