I've got no issues with Chevy.  My '98 Cavalier recently crossed over the 100k miles threshold, and it's still going strong.  Haven't had to do anything major yet.  One thing regarding the air conditioner, which wasn't more than $1000, and something else in the hundreds.  The rest is just normal wear and tear.  Tires, oil, filters, etc.

My wife's always had troubles with Dodge.  Dodge blows.

I count four cars out in the yard going strong over 200K..... all different manufacturers.  ;)
And I have NEVER bought a "new" car.

 :o I'd have been rolling some windows down.

As for the original post......would I buy a GM? .... no.
Any particular reason.... no.

Do I believe in any of the "bailout" BS.... no.
If a huge companies like those are failing, then they deserve to.

I have nothing constructive to add other than we were thinking of checking out the Kia Soul two weekends ago, decided not to, then the next weeked (last weekend) we drive to the dealership and the entire dealership was GONE.

What state are you in?  This doesn't happen in New England.  Some will reach 200k but not many at all and it takes a lot of dedication on the part of the owner to get it there.  Even the cars known to run forever often can't make it that far because they rust out around the drivetrain before the engine is done.
