Buoyed by an upswinging Chevrolet brand that saw growth in many of global markets, GM reported sales of more than 9 million units, a gain of over 7% compared to last year's sales. Chevrolet brand accounted approx. 4.8 million units. General Motors reports that it gained the global market share by 4th of a percent during 2011 to 11.9 percent.

    No surprise to me that this happened, but as I said back when Toyota unseated GM, don't count on anyone hanging on to the sales title for very long anymore. GM's record in holding the title for decades is unlikely ever to be matched.

    You were not so sure about this when they killed Pontiac. See the Sun still comes up. LOL!

    No, the sun went dark and has stayed that way since they killed Pontiac.

    I would rather see GM have the most profit and cash flow than #1 in sales. #1 in sales makes you the hunted..... not the hunter. Best to let Toyota or VW be #1 in sales and let them deal with all the scrutiny the media will bring upon them.

      Only the hatchbacks, and that production moved to the US a couple years ago.

      Idiot47 is clueless about markets and how demands are driven. The days of Drill baby Drill are in the past as China like many European countries have gone down the EV path too far to return to ICE, as such a glut is coming of cheap oil and production cuts I forsee. Cheapest oil prices in years. https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/us-oil-steadies-60s-dour-233311987.html

      I meant low cost cars like Sentra, Jetta, Taos, Trax, Maverick, Mazda 3, etc at are made in Mexico.    And Honda and Toyota definitely sell Canadian made cars here, I've even seen UK built Civics here. Yes, but even a Pilot or Odyssey is about 70% American parts, 30% of the parts going in will be tariffed.  Honda could be okay, Tesla, the VW Buzz are all high American parts content.   But no one is immune from the storm, and the tier 2 and 3 suppliers could get hit hard too.

      I'm sure it was Taveras's idea. His chair wasn't even cold yet when they brought it back.

      I understand how history buffs love to hold onto everything, but then everything does live a life and then dies.  In this case, repurpose as a cool Diving reef, I think scuba divers will enjoy diving on the ship and seeing how things change over the years in regard to the marine life. I am very interested in how they will sink her.
