Yeah, they are pretty hilarious in my opinion... Seems like a lot of pissed off domestic union members are posting in the comments section there. This one really stood to me...

GM has more engineers employed than toyota has employees. Toyota has 4 models assembled in the US and GM has over 20. JD power is full of crap, whichever car company pays them the most money wins their awards. I trust motor trend or a car magazine more than JD for they actually do a head to head comparison and they actually know what there talking about. I sell GMC and bring any toyota you want down here and we'll have a head to head shoot out. hell bring your cr-v down here and ill put it up against my terrain. I dare you to bring a tundra down here lol. You buy a toyota and the dealer will get a cut maybe 1000. atleast 50% percent of what you pay goes to japan. Didnt Japan surpris attack pearl harbor and kill 5,000 americans? yeah ill support that country lol. Buy a toyota whatever or honda or whatever japenese car but I dont want to hear a freaking word out of any of your mouths about the americans wearing uniforms made in china for the olympics. Go USA screw the non supporters for you can go to japan and suck an egg roll

I'd like to take him up on that offer to "bring any toyota you want down here and we'll have a head to head shoot out."

"Well, here's my Yaris, and over there's my wife's Corolla, let's do that head-to-head shoot-out! Oh, GMC doesn't offer a comparable vehicle to either of these two cars?! You don't say... Well, I guess that means that I win, right? Wait, why are you getting so upset?"

Well, that explains why Chevy chose to put the distributor on the back of the V8 engines in the 60's. You could not see to adjust the points without removing the hood. They also put the spark plugs in a place that required one to access them from under the car.
