Here's why Toyota is killing GM. On my 1999 Chevy Express van, I've had to replace: factory anti-theft ignition $400.00, starter $160.00, computer $200.00 (GM paid for some of this), transmission $180.00 (thank god for the extended warranty, otherwise &2200.00), both power window switches, and now I find out the intake manifold gasket needs to be replaced for 600.00. Currently it's sitting at the mechanics shop because now that the weather warmed up a little, you can't accelerate-it just bogs down. 3 different mechanics including a dealership can't figure out what's wrong with it. So here I sit borrowing vehicles to get to work. THANK YOU GM FOR PRODUCING THIS PIECE OF CRAP! Unfortunately, I need a van for my line of work. I pray every day that Toyota starts manufacturing a full size van.
