I hate to read that fleet sales are down. I have worked for the same company 20 years and I have always driven a GM vehicle, we just switched to Ford. I just ordered my first Ford. It was a sad day. I hope GM decides to pursue the fleet sales again so that in 2 years I can go back.

GM will not be abandoning Fleet Sales at all, it will just hopefully be at lower levels.

I wounder how profitable GM was for the 2010 year, Ford did great, I'm assuming GM should be pretty good aswell.

Good to see. One thing that I noticed is that Buick's sales have nearly doubled in the last 2 years. Thats impressive.
Have you ever had a rental and thought "wow, I want to buy one of these myself!" ? Quote:

I was thinking more in terms of a company car. Seeing a company drive a certain brand gets the brand out there, and can make impressions on the general public seeing that company using that brand. Kind of like seeing the Police drive interceptors, someone thinking, those are cool, I'm gonna go buy me a Crown Vic.

For me I would look at it in a positive way, but I see your point.

I'll helping this. Just ordered a 2011 3500 duramax 4x4 LTZ single rear wheel. I'm almost as excited as when I ordered my camaro and it's only a work truck.
Good Job chevy for building some awesome cars and trucks! |
