The GM haters will hate the fact that they are on top every month! Not to mention they Kick butt in large suvs. They have the suburban the longest running nameplate since 1935-2013. Camaro outsells mustang almost every month, and the enclave, acadia, and traverse together out sell many other crossovers. I am very excited for the new trucks and Suvs GM has soon to hit showrooms. No doubt in my mind they will continue to be on top !
Hate??. If you are referencing me. I don't hate them. In fact I want them to do well as I am a 3rd tier GM supplier. However, I just know what they have been doing for the last 6 years.
Part of the bailout requirements was for them to in effect replace the company I work for, with in house products. So they let the contract lapse, but had to come begging back when they could not do it as good, or as fast. Now they are FINALLY revamping the Lamda Theda project to bring it up to date. We still do a bunch of GM stuff, But most of it goes to Korea, and we have beed told that they are having problems with the Camero, and that they are looking to give it to us as well.
That is what I'm talking about. They let the world get ahead of them, and have to try to play catchup. Ford no longer worries about certian GM products, but are instead working on out selling Toyotas with the Fusion. And going by what I see running thru our machines. Ford is doing a great job of it. We are running 24/7 to try to keep up with them.
