That is exactly the reason why GM has lost so much market
share,Mike. It's a problem,company wide.

Clint.I'm with you. It's time for GM to get off the pot.
I ordered a new Impala SS in 96, then a Dale Earnhardt series 50th Anniv.
NASCAR 1998 Monte Carlo Z34 CMI and my biggest headaches were with the
Dealerships and their BS. I called Gm 800 # and all I ever got from them was a
confirmation # and the run around. When I asked what about getting the Dealer
to honor the warranty they would tell me go to another Dealership. Find and
dandy, but they use computers and talk to one another and you get the run
around again or the Dealer says take it back to the orig. Dealer or where you
bought the car. One reason I buy a new car is for warranty and assurances,
Bull, that just doesn't wash any more. Sorry about my soap box fellas.

Man, even I, a die-hard GM fan, am compelled to consider a
Dodge truck. They outperform the GM trucks with price, performance, a
far better warranty, and possibly even quality. I've had very few
problems with my GM trucks (89, 94, 97, 2000), but I'm still considering a
Dodge.
WAKE UP GM!

1/2 ton Hemi trucks,as I'm typing this. My local dealer had twelve of them
in stock,yesterday. As for the price,I've got a order form filled out on
my desk for a 1/2 ton four door Dodge with Hemi engine,Lone Star package
with polished 20" wheels,top of the line Infinity sound
system,etc,definitely no stripper. Price will be $24,700. I've always been
a GM man but they do not currently build a true four door 1/2 ton truck
with full 6' bed. Neither does Ford. On top of that,both GM and Ford are
priced substantially higher.Clint Hooper LT5 Registry Director

I believe last
I heard the Hemi is only available in 3/4 ton and up trucks. No 1/2
tons. Also I really question you finding a hemi truck at under 25G's.
Even a stripped out 2wd, no option anything... probably would need to
specially ordered if ya did... But I could be wrong as I no real drive
to buy anything with a Dodge logo on it and haven't looked at them much.
But yes cool none the less though. Mikey

I have been waiting to drive one of the 1/2 ton four
door Dodge trucks with Hemi power and the Lone Star
package(20"wheels). Having driven just about every new truck out there
with just about every engine/trans combo,I can tell you the Hemi Dodge
will smoke a Chevy truck with the 6.0 engine. One truck I drove was a
3/4 ton longbed with Hemi power & auto and it was pretty
impressive for something so heavy. One of the new 1/2 tons with that
engine should be a fun ride,especially for less than $25K.Clint
