Why not eliminate the Chevy trucks and sell GMC though Chevrolet/GMC dealers?
Another good point. In the wealthier parts of town, I actually see more Yukon XL Denalis than Escalades.

Do you think that people would take up that idea? I'm not saying it's a bad idea, in fact, if we were to combine GMC/Chevy, that's another good way to do it. However, Chevy has been well established as a work truck brand here in the US, and I don't know how wise it is to tamper with that reputation by introducing GMC into that slot instead.
