People have been wanting to bash GM for a lonngggggggg time. Chrysler was always the "underdog". Ford, well Ford is a family business. GM? Well that's a giant corporation. It's been that way as long as I can remember.

Realistically, this will be very damaging. But the indicator is the stock. It hasn't plummeted of really dropped for that matter.

And the take over? Oh that would be China.

But as long as GM is paying it's bills and making a profit no one can force anything. GM is no longer owned by the US or Canadian governments. So the free market will determine what happens.

Keep in mind people, and I've seen the data, there are a LOT of people in this country that don't know Chevrolet makes cars. They see Chevrolet as a truck maker and no more. So until the Silverado/Tahoe/Suburban are hit by this there will be little impact. And as far as I can tell from the sales numbers, C7 is selling. No rebates. Camaro now 5 years old only has a few thousand on the hood.

This is sensationalistic journalism.

Did I say China?
