Pretty basic economics. "If you make something people want you'll sell it." Too many choices and alot of bland choices in one company, trim the fat, make the stuff that sells. Simple. Quality not quantity.

You mean nobody wanted the Aztec?

I will add, I also really liked my '92 Pontiac Grand Prix SSE. If I need to buy another car, I would buy another GP. That car was excellent, and it had 192k miles on it when I donated it to charity - and the KBB was still $1,300

If you couldn't tell, I like American vehicles and will continue to buy them. I believe the imports have forced the big 3 to improve their products to a competitive level. I have small gripes like anyone else, but I have faith that GM will turn itself around.

PS: I flat out told the GMC salesperson who was trying to sell me a Nissan Titan that there was no way on God's green earth I could pull into a major car show with a Japanese tow vehicle
