The US government hasn't been a shareholder of GM since 2013.

GM would bring back Pontiac if they thought it could be a viable brand. By 2008 GM was nearly bankrupt, and Pontiac wasn't doing well.

The fun/performance implications of this are also huge. I'm sure you understand this, but I'll describe it for others.

At some point I think GM felt it safe to just ignore the sedan crowd because those customers weren't adding that much to the bottom line. As such in real life, cut the losses and move on.

Ceramic spray-ons do only last a few months, but that's better than days or a week or two for a typical carnauba paste or synthetic wax.

Where does the 2.7L 4-cylinder Silverado fit into GM's CAFE equation? It doesn't get great fuel economy, but it must win them points with the EPA in some category?
