I heard they might change it from blue to green ... you know, since they'll be green friendly and all.

Discuss.

I think they should ban black as a car color option, since OBVIOUSLY black cars attract more heat and cost more to cool.

Of the people who saw the logo, 90% wouldn't even realize there had been a change. Of the 10% who noticed a change, only 10% would realize what it was. Of that 10% only 1% would care. Of that 1% only 1 would go bat$#$! crazy and we already know that will be Blieb. So it's all good. Everyone else can relax.

"Government Motors"... "Obama Motors".. "Green is for dumb people".. It's odd to find such a reactionary and right swaying online forum, I guess nerds were tired of being picked on in high school so they became hostile, un-empathetic, selfish bores... "Obama keep your hands off of my wallet!" Do you think that a republican in power would lead to a massive surplus, where we'd all get huge refunds and the government would just leave all of us alone? Nah, that wouldn't happen kiddos.. We'd just find another war to lose billions on.. And we'd also go back to banning stem cell research because God wants to save the innocent babies! I for one welcome scientific research in various fields and think investing in our future is fine.

GM failing? I personally would be ok with that and am not exactly pro bail outs, but the economics of it all is something I need to be more educated about...

Its mostly ignorant use of catch phrases they heard someone else use. Dont mind them. They are the type who would most likely complain either way things turned out.

Yep, the ignorant really do like catch phrases (even people who say "Faux News" piss me off)... i should apologize for the nerd bashing, I'm a nerd and a proud one at that!

They've released the final revisions to the new logo. Looks like they put a lot of work into it to really show what the company is about.

You're pretty ignorant if this doesn't bother you. Keep toiling away, tool.

He's pretty ignorant if them changing their logo doesn't bother him? :confused:

Have you ever considered a future as a California legislator?
