GM has alternatives. But these cars don't make significant money for GM. Crossovers can.

Open up the latest R&T or MT magazine, there's liek a 15 page Special Advertising section for Silverado!!!! SERIOUSLY?? That adspace must have been purchased 2-4 months ago. Silverado??

What is GM trying to sell?? THey still don't have a clue!!
When you have to start putting $5,000 incentives on these vehicles just to sell them then I bet you that the profits get closer to that of a mid sized car if not less.
