Need a good laugh?

Pick up the latest consumer reports. If you look at the ratings for the 2010 and 2011 Camaro, you'd think they were two completely different cars.

Not that I've ever taken anything said in consumer reports to heart, but they have to be some of the most idiotic car people. Ever since I read how they rated the Saturn S series as one of the least reliable cars, they have lost all credibility in my book. With 5 s series in my family with a combined 800000+ miles and no major engine work done to any of them, I know they are obviously incompetent.

Consumer Reports is a joke.

I believe nothing they write.

Consumer reports does not know anything but how to ripoff people who subscribe to them.
I am professional photographer and they can't give a Professional SLR digital camera a decent review. You have to do your own research these days.

Ha ha I too am not very trusting with anything they say, especially the Camera reviews, I am a Pentax shooter and have been all my life, I shoot a K-5 and also have a K-x, Canons are great cameras and so are Nikons but it would be nice to see some decent reviews of the Pentax brand, now that Ricoh bought them I feel we are going to see a lot more of the name Pentax in the social media and in advertising as well.
Consumer reports only cater to whoever pays them the most.
Camaros sell themselves and don't need the fancy advertising, all it takes is for someone to actually see and experience a Camaro in real life and they are sold on them, that happened with my wife.
