Bob,
You find no joy in this? You have 2 Toyotas!
GM's just dosen't make as good cars as Toyota. They haven't kept up with the play. You having a hybrid, also confirming this slightly, maybe? If GM's get there act together, they might increase there sales again.
As I am not an American, I may look at this differently than you. From what I hear the build quality of Toyota is far better then GM. The rest of the world does't have the cheap gas you have so we tend to buy more fuel efficent cars than most Americans. It cost me over $110.00 to fill my tank on the Estima and $50.00 on the Vitz (echo). It hurts on the budget when you have to fill up.
Bob on a whole I think Toyota make better cars but that doesn't mean that GM's don't make some good ones.
