Let’s take a look at six cars that qualify as genuine “pocket rockets.” For the sake of argument, here are some ground rules for a pocket rocket: The car must be a compact or smaller.

4). 2007 Chevy Tahoe: Selling Like Gangbusters By : Matthew C. Keegan
The jury is in regarding the recently released big SUVs from General Motors: they are an overwhelming success story. The Chevy Tahoe along with its GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade siblings are bringing in big gains for GM. Just in time too as the automaker pares excess capacity, closes plants, and lays off tens of thousands of workers. So, what is it.

6). GM Death Watch: It Ain’t Gonna Happen! By : Matthew C. Keegan
I have been enjoying reading the news these past few days, perhaps in a perverse sort of way. Pundits and prognosticators are all forecasting the pending doom of the world’s largest automaker as if the approaching layoffs and restructuring are signaling the venerable automaker’s end. Certainly, GM has some problems – big ones – but the company isn’t likely to go away or even file for bankruptcy.

7). GM: Solutions For Effective Change By : Matthew C. Keegan
I, like so many people who have been following General Motors’ fortunes for some time, am wondering what the company’s long term plan of action is in the face of historic losses, plant closings, and unrelenting and widening competition. No, I am not talking about GM’s global operations, rather I am talking about the North American fortunes of the world’s largest automaker.

8). Through the Centuries with the Buick Century By : Shane Morgay
Under the umbrella of the General Motors, the Buick Motor Division is very much responsible for the Buick Century.

The vehicle brand, Buick, also used the name Buick Century in 1973 to 2004 for its value-added intermediate line of cars.

Lots of folks are speculating about GM’s future. If you take all the press reports at heart, you would think that General Motors is on life support.

In 2005, “the General” sold more than 9 million cars worldwide, the first time the automaker reached that figure since 1978.
