RE: Which GM division will you miss most?
Pontiac for me...always loved the Firebirds/TransAm's...I love the G8 and would sell everything I own to have one...I always loved the Grand Prix's (even though it was discontinued before the entire Pontiac brand was), especially the last body style.

As for Saturn, I never saw what the difference between an Ion and a Cobalt was, so really, no loss there, in my mind. Hummer, to me, became a joke when they created the H2, and it got worse with the H3...blech. Saab...well they were nice looking, but I never really cared that much for them.

RE: Which GM division will you miss most?
I liked most Oldsmobiles...the Alero wasn't much to write home about but I did like the Aurora, even though for some reason it always tongue-ties me LOL...and Intrigues were nice as well. I always liked the older Olds, back in the era of Taylor's various Cutlasses. I also have some early childhood memories of our 1980-something Cutlass Supreme, that brought me home from the hospital when I was born...don't remember that but I do remember a few scattered events with the car, and how sad I was when we sold it (I think I was about 4 or 5). That was an awesome car. It pretty much looked like this, except for the fact that it was a sort of a greenish-blueish colour, not white, and I don't recall it having a vinyl roof but then it was 20 years ago and I was very very young lol... http://www.bonhamchrysler.com/informatio...04_001.jpg

I'm just glad they didn't kill off Chevrolet...not like they would, but I'm still thankful, because I've still got my hopes on a Camaro...LOL.

Although I wouldn't mind a 442...

RE: Which GM division will you miss most?
I had to vote Pontiac (even though my last new car purchases were Oldsmobiles; 2000 Intrigue, which my daughter still has and 2004 Bravada, which I still have). My first ever three cars were Pontiacs so that's probably why I voted this way, though Pontiac lost its way, when mostly all they had were Chevrolet derivitives. And an honorable mention for Saturn; they had just started to get good stuff back when they got killed off (of course most of their stuff was derivitives as well).

'04 Bravada, '06 STS, but still looking for that '69 Z-28

I attended media days at the 2010 Chicago Auto Show. What an empty feeling without Pontiac, Saturn; even Saab and Hummer were absent even though they're "saved"

Looks like Hummer is going to die now.

RE: Which GM division will you miss most?
Most know that I am a biug time Pontiac fanatic, so I obviously miss Pontiac the most. I miss Oldmobile too though. I thought for a long time they had great cars. They lost their way even faster than Pontiac though. The Cutlass was one of the top sellers through the eighties.

RE: Which GM division will you miss most?
I voted Oldsmobile. Every Olds I've ever ridden in/owned has been great.

I'm glad to see they knocked Hummer out. The H2 and everything after was ugly as Hell and horrible on gas. They were pretty much an abomination of the road to me. The 5 minutes I spent in one, I watched the damn gas needle move...WTF! I know what all the Hummer owners say; "you're just jealous cause you don't have one". Not at all...even if you gave me the keys to one and said it was mine, I'd drive it straight to a dealership and trade it for something that I'd wanna drive. Tongue
