Well, there is that. And I certainly appreciate your supportive comment.

That said, I like to think we're also better for other, more important reasons. For instance, that our information is, on average, over nine months more recent than theirs is.

Up to 13 of the 2008s. Might have a result in August if people keep joining at the current rate.

Also getting close with the 2005 and 2006. Once we have enough participants, we'll be able to specify how much the Malibu's repair rate differs from that of competitors.

Now 16 of the 2008s. Not enough responses to include a result in the May update, but the small amount of data I do have points to a low to moderate repair rate. Better than other recent first-year GM models.

For all model years we very much need more participants. If you'd like better reliability info on the Malibu, this is how to make it happen.

And now 22 2008s, and over 120 for all model years.

We might have results for the 2005 and 2008 in Augustit''s going to be tight.

A few more participants could make the difference between having a result and not having one.
