Interesting story from the AP

General Motors is taking a seemingly odd approach to falling sales of pickup trucks: It's raising prices. The company says the price of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado will go up almost $2,100.

  • I'm not impressed with this GM move and I'm a long time GM customer.

    Maybe it's time to move on...although we all know Dodge and Ford may well adopt the same ploy.

    In the end, it's all about how much money a company can squeeze from consumers.
  • Thats why Dodge can't Build the 2014 Ram 3500 DRW with the Aisin Tranny, fast enough. They are back logged in everything. Everyone trying to order and cannot get what they want. A lot of people are trying to get SRW's with the Aisin and they are on hold. Someone mentioned the other day the SRW line will be opened up soon. Hope so. Sometime its better to try and pick up a 2013, lots of discounts out there right now.

    The story says they might be raising prices so that they could offer big discounts. Sad thing is we, the public, will accept this tactic.


    Yep GM started the rebait garbage and now the manufacturers are putting huge prices on vehicles just to throw huge rebaits on them. Sad part is the public is to stupid to understand this.
