GM EV1 can revitalize GM stock price and dealer sales!

Preparing for the EV parade

At Casa de Cadillac, Sherman Oaks

Saving the EV1 is more important than comfort

Living without oil


   

These giant covered vans indicate GM is ashamed to let people see them destroying America's future. These cars can help patriots "drive free of mideast oil". GM make a U-turn, says the sign, but GM insists on HIDING all the EV1. Call GM's Dave Barthmuss, 805-373-9572 and ask him to let you choose!

Alexandra Paul and Colette Divine prepare. In the background is Jon Sherman, of rokcircle.com Native American and environmental music.

Media talking to Colette and Alexandra, as their clean RAV4-EV blocks the egress of the EV1 van. In a sense, the RAV4-EV was coming to the aid of its smaller but sleeker sister vehicle, the EV1.

Colette Divine (from her website)

We offer $25K each for a "salvage title" relieving GM of all responsibility. If we want to buy, why should they save us from ourselves? GM seems to be telling us what's best for us, e.g., that we will have a range problem, and that we should be afraid to own and just lease, and that we need a specialist to "induct" us into "new technology". In fact, it's technology that's not new or secret at all, Toyota had no fear in selling their RAV4-EV for $42,000 each, with no rebates or incentives. Why should GM be so fearful?

One wonders if GM is so reticient about other models:

  • "Gee, sir, are you sure you want to buy this Suburban? There are rollover issues..."
  • "Uh oh, not the Sable, sir, that's got a bad rating from Consumer Reports, let's look over to the Saturn for your car..."
  • "Gosh, are you sure you need a pickup THAT large, just to haul Fido? I recommend this smaller pickup, it's much better suited for you..."
  • "Oh, sir, with a commute that long, I can't let you waste money on an Excalibur, let me refer you to our Chevy sales person..."
  • "No, sir, you are not established enough to buy a Cadillac, you need to stay with Buick for 2 more years..."
  • "Sorry, Ma'am, we just don't think you can handle a SUT this big, and we're sending you over to Saturn...for your own good..."
   

Market Value embarrassment: Market Value (MV) of a company is defined as the stock price times the number of shares. It's a measure of what the free market thinks of the company's performance, its prospects, and its soundness.
General Motors, once a good American company, now has deserted us, hiding the Patriot car, and suffering financial reversal as it plays into the hands of the oil companies and their ever-thirsting profit grag.
GM, once the heartbeat of America, is now a shadow of itself. Almost every other major car company has a greater MV than GM, and Toyota is valued at more than Honda, Ford and GM combined.
On Wed., Mar 16, Rating Agency Standard and Poor put GM credit ratings under review, with negative implications.

Perhaps the market is trying to tell something to CEO Wagoner and the Board.
