Chunk - it is unfortunate that your Lumina experience is turning out to be a copy of mine. My tale reads similar to yours although the spelling and grammar are better [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I had mine for 6 years. I paid $12000 for it. In the 3 years that it was on warranty it had $6000 in repairs. In the 3 years I was on the hook for it I put in another $5000. I have had 5 GM vehicles and will never have another - well aside from potentially some early muscle but that's different.
It's too bad your Dodge dealer is an *** - that the local one or Denham? My local Dodge dealer is an *** too - so I bought my Dodges at other dealers [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

blind i'm sorry o love GM and all thier products, but once you go through all the crap i have with my damn car. you start to look the other way. i can't be having my car broken every other week. i need it to get around, party's, last minute grocery shopping, picking up family from diffrent places and picking up friends from out in the country.

All that aside, is it under 10g's before or after taxes? </font>[/QUOTE]Mustangs are a different story. To each their own.
And Tyler I never said I'm all for GM because I'm not. I love my cavalier thats me but that doesnt mean I'm all GM's. I absolutely hate Pontiacs man thats a GM. Not to mention the cars I suggested to you were a Honda, Mazda & VW.

The new Explorer is running like a champ over here! However, I had my Camaro back at the dealer two weeks after I bought it. And total repair cost on it during the 5 year run of having it - Over $8000.00 U.S. Thank the Dear, Sweet, Angels above that I purchased an extended warranty!
