Employee Pricing!

If you are looking to buy a new GM vehicle, next week should get pretty juicy!

That's too early. Tell them to wait until the HUD is ready.

Rebates don't change until the 19th. No memo, just some inside info.

Next few weeks are going to be crazy.

Camaro's will be a very small % of our overall sales. Silverado is by far the #1 selling vehicle in Iowa.

Speaking of Silverados, didn't they come out with the new model the same exact year Toyota released their new Tundra? Didn't it win "Truck of the Year" that year (beating the new Tundra)?

So, my impression of the award was that only new models in any given year were eligible to compete so how is it that one year later, Toyota wins the 2008 award?

Even given that they could have changed the rules to allow any model to compete in the current year, how is it that the Silverado was the best one year and not the next considering that no significant changes were made to either truck in the intervening year?

I smell a rat!

We have well over 150 08 1500 ext/crew cabs on the lot and are starting to get in 09's.

We are actually low in inventory right now. We normally have 2000 vehicles on the lot and are down to about 1600 right now.

Wow.

To be fair, the Tundra was included in the TOTY contest the year after the Silverado because it was released after Motor Trend's cutoff date. Toyota actually admitted that they pushed back the release date because of the Silverado. Go Chevy!

I think you've confused it with the Hinder Fridgeline.

Nope. I'm talking about the Tundra...the waste of steel, and composite beaten in that category only by the Aztec....
