$14 billion investment in Opel over four years and at least 20 new models tells me that GM is solidly behind the brand - good news for Opel!

Every three thousand miles of HD2500 use, I visit the Chev dealership and, while waiting for the service dept., I like to see what's up in the showroom. The salesmen all know me well enough that they actually think I really could buy whichever Vette they have on display. I play with them. As if I need a Vette! Ha.
But I insist I'm dead serious when I tell them, again, when they really want to sell me a new car to get the Volt in here.
Meanwhile I still research the electric conversions. The hotrod S-10 might get yet another powertrain swapped in. Why not?
Something's gotta change. I'm sick of using gas for the basic running around that we do.
