The GM Authority Take

After three consecutive months of decreasing sales in the U.S., Escalade sales volume rebounds in May. This is great news for The General, as the Escalade is one of GM’s most profitable vehicles, if not the most profitable. Hence, a rebound in Escalade deliveries could help GM’s earnings in the second quarter of 2017.
