>It's easy to say "you should have gotten rid of Pontiac/Buick/GMC/etc a while ago...........really? Did ANYONE see this disaster coming down the pike? (I mean the mortage meltdown followed by $4.00 gas followed by the Banking Industry meltdown - all in what? 9 months????? Would YOU get rid of a Division that sells over a half million profitable units a year??? WOULD YOU? Would you be SURE that all of those sales would flow to another GM Division? What about overhead you CAN'T just cut? Close a plant? That does NOT mean the costs stop -- go look at what we must pay those who are not working! Further, the cost to close one Division is well into the BILLIONS of dollars..........

I'd drop GMC in a New York minute! Every plant they are using are also building Chevy's and everything GMC is selling can be managed by the Chevrolet division.
If you want to keep the GMC line, give it all to Pontiac and they can just call all their trucks GMC's. The entire management at GMC is redundant I'm sorry to say.
