Here in the Houston market at least, Chevrolet runs a commercial calling out the fuel savings of the Silverado versus the Tundra.

Sorry to hear about the plant closings. Hopefully the Volt will truly revolutionize the market and cause some plants to reopen to build them.

I think Hummer should be sold off. I don't want to see a unibody Hummer in my lifetime.
