They found a new way to waste money! Push the exact same crap out the door under as many different brands as possible THEN decide that products en route need enhancements and bring em back! Coming soon to a dealership near you: GM Vehicles, a Subsidiary of the Toyota Motor Corp! ---

Does seem kinda random, but I’m sure they have a reason . . . Nevermind, its GM. I have no fucking clue what they are up to. On the plus side, I saw this article on the same site.

> [@MonteCarloChick](#): > > Every **DOMESTIC** car company does that, not just GM. its stupid… no foreign car companys re sell a car 3-4 times… toyota and nissan do it the right way, making luxury versions of the car that are significantly changed from one company to the other, BMW mercedes etc dont do it, VW does it but again changes the car substantially, and they only do it once…not 3-4 times its so stupid of GM to do that, ill never buy a non sports car american car… viper and corvette or mustang cobra for me only and even then MAYBE nothing else appeals to me cuz they are so dilluted ---

Don’t see the big deal, other than the fact that they probably should have found this in QA. I know they do cold weather testing. Maybe you should get your news from real news sites, not left wing propaganda sites. I’m surprised they didn’t claim it was because GM only wants to sell full sized SUV’s. 😉 ---
