Re: GM-Navistar truck pact expires without final deal

For what seems like the hundredth time: The average GMC vehicle sold generates more profit then the sale of an equivalent Chevy vehicle. Plus, buyers of Denali vehicles have a higher average household income then Cadillac buyers.

There are 2 expenses to keeping GMC: advertising and sheet metal. I'm assuming that since GMC was one of GM's most profitable brands for years it was well worth it. Maybe that will change as trucks become less popular.

Frankly, I still don't see why the 2-modes aren't available on every GMC (and HUMMER).
