Re: GM to close 4 North American truck plants, may axe Hummer, Volt to be made in Det

I got thinking tonight... why are there two midsize BOF truck / SUV platforms? In what world did GM think it was necessary to have the Colorado and Canyon on one platform and the Trailblazer and its 10 variations on another? Why can't their powertrains be interchanged? Why do different versions exist in Australia and Thailand and South America?
