Exactly. Eliminate Chevy trucks and make GMC the only Truck/BoF SUV/"hardcore" crossover brand for GM.

GMC will always be the better of the two aesthetics-wise, as far as I'm concerned... and I would rather have the better looking truck than be forced to live with the Chevy.

The Lambdas are definite keepers... minus the Outlook of course. And if Penske keeps contracting GM to build Saturns, even the Outlook may survive.

Good thing you don't speak for all people "your age". (24 here) I guess I still do not understand the need for all of these people to say "I am never buying GM again!" and then continue to post it all over the forum. We heard you the first three times...

Back when GMC was on the chopping block, which is no longer the case.

You know what, I'd be fine with that. Just get rid of one of them. But that's just my 2 cents. As has been said, what's done is done.

You see a lot of reports on things dying, but you must miss the retractions or clarifications that come a day or two later.

Must already be onto the newest hot topic.

Re: Meet Your (Reduced) 2010 GM Lineups!

So the G6 will continue but only as a fleet model.... will Orion Assembly build up a years supply and go into standby this fall, will Fairfax get the G6 business, or will Orion be reduced to one shift a day?

Weak? Equinox, SRX, Camaro, Lacrosse, Terrain...shall I go on? Having a bunch of weak vehicles is the same as having a smaller number of strong vehicles.

The G8 is imported. They have to produce it in North America for it to turn a decent profit. Oh, and while the Solstice looks good, it's a mediocre car.

Oh, and by the way, this is GMInsideNews...if anyone isn't going to buy GM anymore, we don't need to hear it. Or hear it again. Or again.
