Hoping to attract buyers turned off by all the lousy cars it built in the 1970s and '80s*, General Motors will roll out a 60-day money-back guarantee (Page D1). Sorry, offer does not apply to the 1982 Cadillac Cimarron.
Since it takes about five hours to buy a car at a dealership, you have to wonder how long it will take to return one for a refund.
* Correction: GM also produced lousy cars in the 1990s and 2000s.
“Twilight” tour: In the second installment of his Northwest coastal road trip, Los Angeles Times travel writer Christopher Reynolds drops by Forks, the rain-swept timber town that's become a tourism magnet because it's the setting of the “Twilight” series of vampire novels (Page F1).
Forks hasn't gotten this much attention since it declared Oct. 15, 1983, “James Watt Appreciation Day” in honor of a vampire who feasted on wilderness lands instead of human blood.
3-0 or 0-3? This could be the first weekend in two years that the Seahawks, Huskies and Cougars all win their football games (Page C1).
If all three lose, however, we're switching our allegiances to the Evergreen State College ultimate frisbee team.
