By the way, 1115, give me one newsworthy recall (as in a recall that other auto blogs reported that LLN didn't) or just any GM recall that LLN failed to report. Also, provide some evidence that LLN is being "payed off by GM". I'd love it to see - it would be fascinating; might even write a book about this whole GM-LLN conspiracy NOT a good way to start the year.
