as mentioned above, the Japanese car companies have not been affected one bit by 60k warranties.

Still, offering more can only be a plus, and even though dropping it down may or may not mean that GM is more confident in their quality, from the perspective of the majority of buyers, I would think offering less warranty is a bad decision, as it does imply that GM is less confident in their product, not more.
