what has been seen of the new silverado... my boss says it does not look a like at all... unfortunatly he said the GMC looked identical to the new silverado
-
nono... they said on their website in NA they only employee 37k...
-
honnestly i dont think toyota is interested in purchasing any company...
-
haha... you think GM mis manages their brands because they have too many name plates... look at how bland Toyotas are... can you imagine if that same company had 80 something name plates? haha they would suffer way more then GM did in the 80's and 90's... I think Toyota doesnt have what it takes to do it right, and GM does... GM has history they can pull into new concepts... Toyota, just steals others... they cant steal other designs for 80 models...
-
and to note thats a izusu dsl motor... not fiat...
-
thats the chyanee... it was a concept again at LA this year...
-
hopefully hes good, never heard of him before... thats the biggest thing that GM needs right now, its good PR.... becuase who wants to purchase from a company that is perceived poorly
-
what about the money ford gave them?
-
well i mean they are cheaper, but they have no incentives... so realisitically they are a lot more expensive...
-
not as well as we would prefer... but you must understand these things are expensive, and people cant pay for them... people cant shell out 700$ payments on a car... 600$ is pushing it... but then you gotta come up with some down...

Opel, Saturn could share flagship...
Newbiewar replied to Mule Bakersdozen LS's topic in Heritage Marques
not to flame but shouldnt saab be getting opel stuff? isnt saturn trying to seem like an asian import instead of a european import? -
well is there anyway what the % of the industry was fleet? and should GM's sales be leading or lower? remember during GMS GM wasnt doing very much fleet....
-
warranty only covers a rental car for 3 days... isnt smart to issue it over the weekend...
-
our dealership only changes oil on saturday... they might have similar things going on over there... we only have 2 mechanics on crew on saturdays...
-
honnestly do you need more then 500 hp? I mean suppose you made a V12 off of the LS2... so you're at 600 HP? heck give it Active Fuel Management... do you really need a V16? Ohh wow... or would you go with the antiquated Northstar style... ?
-
Did anyone fail to mention by 2010 Hyundai aims to be the 6th largest global sales? also... Toyota is keeping a very keen eye on Hyundai... I personally find them a huge threat, but I think Deawoo can out do kia or Hyundai as far as afordablity

looks similar to my friends GTX 440

According to that Production page on GM news, GMProduction Scheduals says the 07 year model will being production July 31 2006... Where as the Production schedual does not specify for the Extended Trailblazers... because that plant will be closing... of course i could be wrong, I just really enjoyed the truck... but never got to drive it..

ohh if we could have new GMT900's before summer... ohh wahoo!!!

Wagooner and Ford need to talk to bush not about bail out, but what is wrong with the american businesses... the only way for the american ecconomy to flurish something must be done in every industry... Health care must be addressed... Workmans Comp Must be addressed Insurance rates MUST be addressed... these are things that cost thousands of dollars per employee per year. and think of that on a larger scale...
-
I hate to be anti Kirk... but he said he's in it for the long term... soo... that means that Kirk shouldnt harp to much, I think Lutz is doing a supurb job of getting product in line... I think Kirk could harp at Bush or the UAW... but I think GM already knows what needs to be done...
-
as far as i'm aware there will not be a Z71 trim line... Yet. They may go back, but as for what i have heard they have no intentions of having Z71's again. and in my book here. it refers to the window as removeable, not retractable...
-
there is a lot of GM's loss in the 4th quarter...

President Offers Automakers Little Encouragement
Newbiewar replied to z28luvr01's topic in General Motors
its not harsh at all becuase Toyota doesnt have Unions... so... Union against Corperation... when things get competative... Corperations can reduce wages, Unions will resist. -
haha i dont know about the millions of workers... Toyota only employees about 37k... and a majority of those are in mexico...
