    Disappointing attention to detail, but not surprising. During the 1999-2000 changeover to the new style Tahoes and Suburbans, the new model didn’t appear on the GM website for almost a year after being available. And that was when GM had the cash to make 5 people responsible for the website content.

    I think maybe GM just wanted to go retro with their advertisement. Maybe?

    As they are already on the road (I’ve seen multiple) even the season is likely incorrect.

    What will the website say about the Camaro?

    Personally I think the GM Canada site is more stunned (stunneder?). Check it out…www.gm.ca

    First thing you see…the Volt! (‘pre-production model shown’). Come on GM, show us a real, competitive car like the Malibu…you know, something you can actually sell.

    I stopped at the local Chevy dealer yesterday morning to check on what sort of quality products they had in stock. Of course, I had to look at the 3 fleet-white Uplanders first, but I eventually got to the Traverses (Travii?)

    I looked at 2 of them, and the first one I looked at had water droplets on the far left side of the driver’s seat, which was apparently caused by a leak in the driver’s side door weatherstripping. The dealership had been closed since Saturday night so I’m pretty sure a human didn’t deposit the water droplets on the seat. And the sticker price was $37K. I know you can get them for about a dollar with all of the incentives, but it showed to me that GM’s build quality is right up there with the Chinese manufacturers.

    Our dealership did not sell one of these for the first 4 months but we have sold 6 in the past 10 day period. People who test drive them really like them. The DI V6 is a selling point as is the 5 Star all around safety ratings.

    Old ads could be still hanging around a ad server thats not something to blame GM for.

    I think “all new” is a little off, as it is the same vehicle as the Buick Enclave, GMC Acadia and Saturn Outlook…

    Screwups with time dependent advertising happen all the time. You’ll hear Super Bowl related ads on the radio a week after the game. Universal Technical Institute’s NASCAR training program is still running ads featuring an endorsement from Petty Enterprises, which no longer exists.

    Nah…

    I think its the fact that GM cant tell the vehicles apart.

    I mean if the customers cant tell the dealerships or the brands apart.. how are they going to tell 4 virtually identitcal vehicles, in virtually the same price, size, cost and company..

    I mean if you didnt know better…

    Could you tell the following vehicles apart.. if the badges werent there?

    Chevy Traverse
    Buick Enclave
    Saturn Outlook
    GMC Acadia

    If you couldnt who can expect GM to?
