I think that is the biggest thing that the "get rid of Saturn" crowd is missing. To me, Saturn is a MUCH stronger brand than Pontiac (and some other GM divisions also)..just it has a too few dealerships. In a perfect world, Most of the other brands would lose a large number of its dealers, while saturn would gain a few.
