December 30, 200520 yr "GM, Ford and Chrysler should see combined market share surge in December compared to dismal performances in recent months, consumer research firm Edmunds.com predicts. Collectively, the trio is expected to win nearly 58% of the market, compared to 53% in November and an all-time low 52% in October. " "Edmunds.com auto analyst Jesse Toprak said renewed demand for SUVs came from falling gas prices and the kind of icy road conditions that inspire a demand for four-wheel-drive vehicles. SUV sales and nationally advertised incentives as large as $4,500 could help GM." Lowered gas prices, consumers' demand for 4X4 to combat winter weather, combined with good reviews in media, the timing is good for GMT-900 launch. http://money.cnn.com/services/tickerheadli...07_FORTUNE5.htm
December 30, 200520 yr Finally some good news. Looks like the GMT-900s will actually launch at a good time.
December 30, 200520 yr Finally some good news. Looks like the GMT-900s will actually launch at a good time. [post="65145"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] yea i dont think it could launch any better, it'll be a home run... now they just need good marketing to go with the launch and it'll be a grand slam
December 30, 200520 yr A agree that they will sell well, since large SUV buyers will have a good reason to get a new one. High end buyers want the latest styles, and will want to get these.
December 30, 200520 yr And just think..... According to all the 'know it all' analysts and media, launching GMT900 now was a bad idea.
January 5, 200620 yr Thats the only thing we need, some big ass SUV's on ice!!! Now there will be even more SUV in the ditchs! Oh well, at least tow trucks will have a good month too. John
