It is really a good time for GM with their large truck and SUV lines. However, I implore them not to get too drunk on the profits. GM needs a well-rounded array of vehicles to stay competitive in the business. They should not ignore the car and sedan lines that they once excelled in.

What is really frustrating is you can still buy a plane jane Ford 1/2 ton with a V8 for less than a Chevy which ONLY comes with a 2.7L 4 cyl. GM has become an exercise in pure lunacy!
