Anything positive is great news for gm.I can personally say that I knew I was not seeing the new lacrosse and enclave in these florida roads consistently by accident, it’s good to see the numbers match as far as buick goes.
Agreed – and if you think there’s a lot of GMs in Florida, just take a look at a “true” American state like Colorado or Utah — hoards of GM products ’round these parts of the woods!
