He is, dumbxxx. And supporting your union buddies in the process.

Btw, Scarlet. What do you think about the Toyota Matrix and Corolla compared to the Pontiac Vibe?

Do you think the Matrix and Corolla are utter POS.

Post your response, I’m curious to know.

If I had to choose, I would go with the Pontiac. But I’d rather have the Chevy Malibu because:

1) Its way better looking.
2) Not everybody has one.
3) You can get a 6 speed auto mated with the 4 cylinder for great mileage and performance.

Before you get all excited Flu, realize I know those are basically the same car. At least if you buy the Pontiac the end of the line profits should stay in the US, instead of heading off to Japan.

Nice try, nerd

Actually, if you bought the toyota corolla, you would be supporting your brothers and sisters at UAW. And buying the Vibe supports toyota too, UAW dumbass. When are you going to learn that the world is so integrated and complex, that there is nothing “pure american car brand” anymore?
