2) If you prefer, we could start another thread concerning:

If i could ask:

There is recent "controversy/debate" that gm should shut down buick/pontiac/gmc etc. and only have chevy-cadillac.

a) What is the real cost in having other, essentially duplicate brands? Specifically and for example how much more did it cost if any to put a gmc grill/hubcapbs/trim as opposed to chevy on a 1/2 ton pickup as both were assembled in the same plant with the exact same assembly persons?

b) What are your thoughts on the matter of "shutting down" brands, i.e., pontiac?
Thank you .

As far as your questions, I have started a separate thread here:
