The sad fact is that a good chunk of Pontiac sales were unprofitable fleet sales. No matter how you spin it, Pontiac had no future and no purpose with the new GM. It sold nothing more than cheap, redesigned Chevrolets at dealers that sold entry-level luxury cars and upscale trucks. The only way Pontiac could ever be salvaged was to reduce to to a niche brand that sold two or three products which is NOT what GM needs right now. The money used to redesign Chevrolets into Pontiacs and advertise Pontiacs can now be put to better use to build and advertise the remaining brands.
