What The Hell Went Through GM's Mind That Made Them Kill Pontiac

[EJOUIE]

Several people back in the seventies figured out a way to get 30+ mpg's on a cadillac, among other cars. GM bought that technology, scrapped it, and we are still thinking that it's new achievements to get 30 mpg's. GM actually paid people to keep that stuff hush hush, made them sign a contract that if they brought it back, they would be sued.

and I bet that you also think that the destruction of the Death Star was an inside job.

Maybe if GM had kept Pontiac around those guys on the death star would have had something to hope for... Maybe they would have tried harder! Besides again the simple flaw in Pontiac was that no one that had the money bought one... Love the name and all that... I've owned 5 myself and will get more I'm sure... But remember ninja turtles cereal? Why can't I buy that anymore?? Frosted chex with marshmallow turtles?? The point is well said by Joe Dirt... "It's not about what you like, it's the consumer". And the consumers wern't buying...
