The Cadillac and Ram did a nice increase, but damn the Chevrolet and Fiat really fell down flat last month, especially Fiat with a 24% drop. Ouch.

[G. David Felt]

Could GMC and Chevy be due to the change over in Trucks and SUV's?

[Drew Dowdell]

I'm surprised at Jeep being down. But keep in mind, this was a weird month because number of selling days was lower.

Could GMC and Chevy be due to the change over in Trucks and SUV's?

In the case of Chevrolet, I don't think so as the Cruze (down 50.6 percent) and Impala (down 24.9 percent) had a bad month.

Fiat and Smart are irrelevant in the USA. Time to make an exit?

No I think Impala is possibly down because the firesale of the W bodies is complete. Mostly the EPII Impalas are now to be seen at the dealership and the customers may be realizing the sticker shock.
