Re: Is the GM Card Worth It?

For those who don't get what I mean with the competition - take this example:

2008 XL7

2500 Factory Cash Back
1000 Owner Loyalty
1000 Graduate Incentive
500 Military Incentive

- Or -

0.0% for 60 Months + Free gas for XL7 valued at $450 (Cash Card). Offers expire 06/30/2008.

Plus

Competitive Owner Incentive

Trading in a SUV or a minivan? If so, you may qualify for $1000 additional customer cash when purchasing a new 2008 XL7.* Offer expires 06/30/2008. *Click here for details

Something depressing about knowing that the "Competitive Owner Incentive" + Free Gas one shot deals are about equal to cash that took me about a year to accumulate on my GM card that I'm allowed to use on, say, an HHR or Equinox. And this is coming from a maker, Suzuki, that usually has pretty puny incentives and MSRP's closer to invoice than GM.
