The latest GM rumor I heard today...

GM:
PLEASE SELL SATURN!!

They killed that little car brand. They used to make little fuel efficient four bangers you couldnt kill if you wanted too. Now they make SUVs. :brickwall:

I think a lot of Saturn models are heavily rooted in Opels.

The Hummers should be the first to go.  They are about the most impractical things made.....EVER.  THey should have kept Oldsmobile around and dumped Pontiac...I've never been a huge Pontiac fan.  I myself like Buicks, I think they are pretty nice cars compared to Pontiacs....BUT, what they should probably do is dump Buick and make the Cadillacs more affordable.  We also don't need Cadillac trucks, that's just a waste of time.  Believe it or not, the GMC trucks are better built than their Chevy counter parts.  If I had to do it over again, I'd take a GMC over the Chevy.
The other thing as far as the GM trucks go....just for laughs, I went and looked at a 2009 GMC 2500HD diesel 4x4 and about fell to the ground when I saw the MSRP at $49,500.  I don't see $50K anywhere in that truck.  There is no reason a pickup truck should cost that much regardless of who makes it.

As for Saturn....from what I have seen, they are a bunch of recall junks...dump them.

I thought the GMC and Chevy trucks came off the same lines just with a little different badging?

A friend of mine made a good point...no matter how much leather, chrome or carbon fiber is added to a car, after about $35K it is all just profit.

With that being said: I saw this ad today....a new 2008 Mustang GT for about $10K under MSRP or $18,995 with 40 at this price.

I guess when the Ford CEO was in Washington last week he wasn't kidding when he said:
"We produced more vehicles than our customers wanted and then slashed prices, hurting the residual values of those vehicles and hurting our customers." Dam, if you bought a 2007-8 GT you just lost about $10K off the resale value.

Wish Chrysler would cut $10K off the Challenger, I'd buy one.  :smilielol:

I like how they point out anti-lock brakes.  hasnt that been the standard for what 10~15 years now?   :icon_smile_big:
