Re: GMI Exclusive: Some GMC Product Programs Bite the Dust

The Acadia should never have existed in the first place, the Traverse should have been available at the Lambda launch however. Why does BPG need 2 Lamda's? If they are going to keep GMC however why would they cancel the SUT? Perhaps it is a test of how well Chevrolet can do with a truck that is only offered in Chevy dealers?

If the new Terrain has 3 row seating but is smaller, lighter, and more fuel efficient than the Acadia it would probably sell better anyway. It won't have the same 3rd row room or cargo if it has that option but that works fine for many and most don't need the extra towing capacity either. The Enclave is still available at the BPG dealers if someone needs the extra size/capability. This will also help encourage those dealers that haven't already combined to do so. Getting all the seperate or improperly aligned dealers to be properly aligned is important.
