Pontiac...Off Topic

[48long3804]

I assume we have all heard the bad news about Pontiac being dropped by GM. The gov't seems to be gaining an extraordinary amount of control over what vehicles the mfgs can produce. It seems performance cars are being stunted and there's no telling what will become of the other GM models like the Corvette, Camaro, CTS, etc.

I've seen a lot of rumors floating around about Buick, Hummer and possibly GMC being eliminated as well. I'd hate to see GMC cut off and I know it would fire up a lot of you G lovers on here as well!

Without trying to make a Political comment I,ll just say Yes it would be a shame , Pontiac was a Large Player in the Muscle car, world as well as Classics .

I Would find it hard to beleive them Dropping GMC , Because of there commercial market in Construction & such & More Reasonablly Priced then Chevy .

But then again They Mis named the Swine Flue as There Has been No evidence of it even Slightlly being connected to Swine, which is Allready having a Huge Impact on the Hog/Swine Industry . . Bob
