wait so i’m kinda curious that how did Sonic sell 280 of them??
They’re already on certain dealers’ lots… and hence are already being sold in some places, but on a very limited basis.
Who thought anyone was still buying the GMC Canyon? I forgot it even existed.
Yeah, they’re not bad little trucks. But they’re definitely forgettable. Too bad we’re not getting the new Colorado… at least at launch.
I hope the lacrosse doesn’t go anywhere its a great car besides not having a app for it (2010) model but have one for chevy what’s up with that come on gm we deserve a app too!!!
