I've even been told, not very long ago, that we can't even trust what GM publishes on its own web sites!

I mean really...where is a person supposed to go for information that has absolutely ZERO bias and that NEVER makes a mistake???

Well I'll tell you where you don't go...Winding Road...

I doubt there won't be one. They can't afford to bash GM vehicles anymore.

With this crowd, no. It is simply unfathomable that any praise of a vehicle might just be due to its own virtues; instead, it's far more likely that this mysterious "bias" is the underlying cause of all subjective evaluation (and even some objective measurements), be it good or bad.
