twintornados Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 What the hell are people going to buy if Ford and GM get rid of BOF V8 SUV's? I really hope the Expedition survives along with the Navigator,If not then just bring the Excursion back as it shares everything with the Superduty anyway, Earth to Ford and GM FWD unibody junk does not do it for all of us! Well....there is always the Panther....just have to go to an upfitter for a wagon/suv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-150 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I wouldn't count it as dead, just the next generation model is dead... bingo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By most accounts, it will be dead long before the Tahoe and Expedition will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 For GM to stop producing them might be a blessing in disguise. Then again... Look at the mistake they did by quit producing RWD vehicles. Tells you where they are headed. With the current sales of RWD models that are on the market today, I wouldn't say the market is excatly beating a door down for them....

You bet- real brain-trust there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
630land Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) "Look for the classic truck-based sport-utility vehicle to completely vanish..." I totally do not believe this 'prediction' at all. GM is closing the Janesville WI SUV plant, but not Arlington TX. They also did not say that they are pulling these products entirely. The title of this is WRONG also, it should say "GM kills NEXT GEN Sub/Tahoe" DUH!!!! A lot can happen in 5 years, look at old Edmunds 'future news' stories and laugh.
