    Disappointing MPG

    Throttle Troubles Worsening

    Anyone else think their 4th Gen is a Lemon?

    Hmmm, Well, I will chime in. I have been a blue oval guy most my life with a few exceptions (1970 Olds 442) I actually had a Chevy once, had that POS crushed too.. My friends have GM's, and they all complain about moisture in the headlights or Transmission problems. Have you ever noticed when...
