I have been following fisn.com

In the Bond section they have GMAC SmartNotes. A five year note is paying 5.75. A 20 year callable note is paying 7.25. A 12 year callable Step-Up Bonus Rate Note is paying an average of 6.712% if held to maturity.

I have not dealt with FISN & do not know how reliable they are.
A 5 year note issued by a marginally investment grade company that yields only 50BP over what PenFed is paying on a CD of similar term? You'd have to be crazy to take that deal!
