Re: GM marketing getting a make over.

This is a great move, and we can only hope that this bodes well for our friend from Mars.

That being said, the divisions all need engineers too... mostly to tell other engineers that they're full of crap when they decide to go light on the halfshafts for an IRS... or the weight cannot be found in the vehicle to have most robust drivetrain components... or that rubbery shifters are a good thing because GM's specifications say they are... or that interior fits can't be improved... or... or...

Well, you get the point. The only way to tackle a misguided engineer is with another engineer.





Yes.

I'm biased on that one.

Good. But I don't think much will change.

Well said. But then I'm also biased.

Re: GM marketing getting a make over.

Huh! Makes a lot of sense ... I hope they pull this off and it works . I'm tired of all the GM slagging that I hear from import thumpers . I mean, there is a reason people have jumped ship from domestic vehicles to imports, but there's also a reason that us "enthusiasts" keep staying true to our beloved Chevrolets and Pontiacs ..... hopefully things will turn around and we can all breathe a sigh of relief and say "see, we knew you had it in you, GM! "
