Not since 2005 :ponder Subaru got pissed when GM used the wrx drivetrain in the Saab wagons.:rofl
GM sold part of their stake back to Subaru and the rest to Toyota
they arent getting bailed out.
gm will keep chevy caddillac gmc and buick
pontiac will become a “niche” brand (they have publicly stated this now for 3 days)
they will not get rid of gmc due to most dealers being Pontiac-Buick-GMC. So taking away one of those brands hurts those dealers greatly… Pontiac is due to lose a few models but they will still be around. GMC on the other hand will be more upper-middle of the range trucks, gm feels that there is still a good market for that as well as feel that the brand has a very loyal following, Buick will stay the same for the most part and mabey even gain a smaller car then the lacross out of this
now
hummer - gone
saba - will be sold to some european company
saturn - will either be sold to the banks which will turn around and sell the brand to another manufacture or it will just dump the saturn brand all together and move forward… which sucks for me
does it suck for you either way? or if it gets sold off are you still good?
don’t really know to tell you the truth… most likely i’m f-ed either way… but if i get dumper then i’m deff fucked… if they sell it to a bank and some like mabey toyota buys us i’m good… mabey
you should buy saturn :bdance
yea i porlly could after this is all done
idk really what to think right now… i’m pretty much just working every day just waiting to hear that i’ve got like 2 weeks/ a month/ 2 months to find a new job… i know i’m not gunna get fired so the only way i’m losing my job is if the saturn brand goes away
after christmas no more money is getting spent on the car till i know for sure if i’m gunna ave a job for the foreseeable future… but w/e if they do dump the brand it’s a good excuse to move out to rochester
seriously, rochester sucks.
He wants to be closer to his B/F
lol yea well that plus the cost of living out there is HALF of what it is here… 500K houses here are like 250k or even 200k there… and they are mostly all new house (within the last 10 to 15 years)
plus they have a lot more corporate jobs at that way… which is what i’ve really wanted to get into latetly
but i’m not doing anything till i know a timetable for saturn… once i know when i wont have that job anymore i will seriously look into what i’ll really do
My parents live just outside of Rochester.
It’s not too bad. Rochester/Buff/Syracuse is there but the weather is horrid during winter. The COL is definate lower. Look at Farmington/Canandigua/etc… just outside for a town feel.
But, there are positives. The Finger Lakes are gorgeous and EXCELLENT wineries.
yup in all honesty mikes house is in an awesome spot… brand new neighborhood, right outside of the main streets( they have like 4 central ave’s equivilent roads all running parelle with each other) and the highway system out there is a little confusing but it’s much better flow of traffic
again i’m not doing anything till i know for sure whats going on with my job
