Default Why?

Ford to cease product of the GT in September and General Motors to cease GTO production in June. WHY?

Do we need more "toasters";do we need more SUV's? Just when I think that Detroit is starting to "get it" They don't and prove me right. Idiots

At least DCM is moving in the right direction,it's a shame their quality sucks donkey.

Goodnight GT Goodnight GTO

Brandon's GTO at Midwest Performance rocks. His car makes me appreciate the GTO so much more.

Well, GM is whining aboot not being able to meet the new safety regulations. Seems like without it Saturn and Pontiac are one step closer to the Buick and Oldsmobile debate.

As for Ford, they are being their typical boner self. I guess the Mustang and F150 is a good enough image for the bean counters.

Good job Ford. Good job GM.

Detroit may be starting to "get" it with the GTO, but the buying public apparently isn't. They're not selling enough to justify the cost of recertifying it as an '07 model. Don't blame GM, blame the buying public, who apparently think we do indeed need more soccer-mom trucks.
