    The biggest car MFG'er in the world is co owned by General Motors and the Communist party of China. It's all the same Chimerican globalist monopolist goup. It's like buying a smartphone. Full of the same parts , the only difference is the marketing strategy.

    First I've ever heard of Great Wall Motors. Checks Wiki

    Currently, component design may rely heavily on foreign technical assistance, and some hard-to-source parts may be provisioned from overseas;[citation needed] the company states it has cooperative agreements with companies such as Autoliv, Delphi Automotive, BorgWarner,

    Its not a bad thing if you are buying one. Chances are it might have the same parts as a higher up brand.

    Should the respective governments sign off on this deal, SAIC will take a 36-percent stake in GM (SAIC already bought a one-percent stake in GM during the company's IPO), a controlling interest. In effect, GM will be owned and under the control of SAIC, which will make combined company far and away the world's largest automaker by volume. It goes deeper than that, though. SAIC is owned and controlled by the Chinese Government. If this deal goes through, GM will essentially be sold to the government of China. How could our government let this happen? As is so often the case, it's all about the money.

    As usual, Backspit has no idea what the fuck he is talking about. Top ten shareholders...

    GM - General Motors Co Shareholders - CNNMoney.com

    No SAIC to be found.

    I think he is dribbling on about GM China, of which SAIC owns 51%.

    but who really knows what that dumb fuckwit is on about, prolly read it on a bumper stick on a passing car he saw whilst licking the bus window.

    That is because it is a 2 year old trade-in.

    It is the same in most countries. Used cars have very little value, compared to new ones.

    Just renewed the insurance on my 2020 Ranger... insured value is 20k more than I paid for it.

    resale value will be half of what I paid !!

    Be interesting to see whats offered when I trade it early next year for the new model.

    depends, he'll switch to something else now . . . perhaps something about meaning North America or Winnipeg and how you got it all wrong and it's all semantics . . .

    Mental midgets think that way
