Default Cheesy GM magazine ads...

For about a year now, I've noticed GM has been trying to pull another fast one on America. In Motor Trend, Car & Driver, and the others, GM has been slipping in their own car review articles done in nearly the same text and format as how the magazine itself would write it. The fake articles glow about the tested car, adding in captions and photos, just like how the magazine would do it. Very sneaky! If that's the best GM can do, that's still a sad representation of their offerings. Once again, it's quality and wanted products that sell, not gimmicks. More dumbing down of core America.
