    Hallelujah!!! They have way to many good products not to come out of this difficult time. Must continue to streamline and cut costs though!

    These are the best products they have ever built by far, not just GM but the entire industry. The average family sedan is built better than an early 90's luxury car.

    I totally agree, its nice to see the big three fighting back with quality. For so long people felt like they should buy a domestic, but as the quality from the big three went down poeple went to the foreign nameplates. If the big three are to survive they will do so based on the quality of their vehicle, and streamlining of their business. People are to educated and with the internet have tons of info at their fingertips and are no longer are willing to settle for any product that does not give them value for their hard earned dollar. Today i'm proud of our american car companies and am confident they will pull threw!! Sorry for the rant but living here in Michigan its a issue i feel strongly about. I'm proud to drive my chevy silverado, i thinks its the best truck made!!!

    I believe that GM is building some of it's best cars ever......but look at the price of a new Silverado vs a fully restored 30 yr old C/K20. $25 - $30k vs $7 to $10k? I love the new chevy's but I'd rather buy a 1970's truck and put the difference in my retirement account. Besides I love working on the older trucks. And they really look sweet.
