Plugged in iPods have created surges in docking stations and burnt down houses... :dunno: Should we waive pitch forks at Apple's doorstep as well?

LMAO, oh wow, you'll take any chance you can get at your lop-sided blatantly ignorant GM bashing wont you?

First a recall of a measly 2100 cars (out of how many sold globally???) now this unconfirmed, in-conclusive isolated incident.

Holy fuck man. :facepalm: :banghead:
you need to get out more.

Yeah absolutely nothing has been confirmed. I cease to see how this is relevant automotive news.

Stupid title for this story. broken_legs is kind of a drama queen. His last two news thread titles:

Chevy Cruze - RECALLED!
- in reality it was 2,100 units.

Chevy VOLT - BURNS DOWN GARAGE!!
- completely STUPID thing to say because, besides the spin, for now the factual conclusion of the story is:

The fire is under investigation.
They don't know what started the fire.

Article wasn't exactly fair either.

A Chevy volt is not a hybrid.

Edit: that said ... no fires have EVER been started by gasoline in garages nah couldn't happen :P

Yes I try very hard to be sure. ;) (what are you in highschool?)
Some day when I grow up I want to be cool like a certain somebody around here.

Perhaps maybe I should follow suit along with that said somebody and start with calling more people other clever & mature names like "fag", "gay", "goof" and "homo"
:rofl: :thumbsup:

Who knows, perhaps someday I can make way.

(FWIW, I personally have had nothing but great luck with GM, after three vehicles with over 500k on them, no breakdowns) so yes I do get annoyed with this dire hatred some people have for them)

EDIT: I seriously dont know why you seem to have it out for me. I honestly have no problem with you, but find myself defending myself against you quite regularly. :nut:

Don't go putting words in my mouth... I called you a goof, never once used a derogatory term like "gay", "fag" or "homo".
