GM makes a good product...for that matter I think they are all comparable. But I don't buy vehicles because of my "love" for them either. While I would like to drive a Vette in order to play, owning one just wouldn't be practical in Alaska. I bought my 3 for the capabilities it has with snow and off road, for the times it ends up where it shouldn't be, Anchorage drivers can relate. Personally I'd rather, and will purchase a used 1 but hang on to the 3 for the commuter gas mileage. The wife was dead set on buying a 2 but now that gas is climbing as fast as it is, she'll probably go with something else. As far as "who made who" goes for the 2004, well -- I wouldn't try to tell anybody anything bout their purchase decision -- that's nmp, I'm cool with my purchase of my 3.
