When should you buy GM because it's too low to pass up?

Personally, I'd refrain from buying ANY US automaker after what the government did to bail them out.

I remember Gaffer saying he would buy lots of GM at the IPO... I wonder if he really did.

I don't know if "miss" is the proper word... I certainly rumbled with them quite a bit for awhile.

Ford?
Especially not Ford. They have a TON of debt. They also have all of the pensions/medical care problems that GM/Chrysler no longer have. Right now, their sales have been boosted by the fact that they didn't take a bailout. However, the American public have incredibly short memories and in 2-3 years I'm not sure they'll be able to keep their sales gains on GM/Chrysler.

I believe that I heard a big part of Chryslers bump, was the new Fiat 500 wart.
