Next generation Tahoe/Silverado and other 900s to be codenamed C3XX

[Jordan23]

The next generation Tahoe/Avalanche/Suburban, Silverado/Sierra, Yukon/Denali/XL and Escalade/EXT/ESV to be code named C3XX on that platform (like GMT900 on the current ones). The GMT900 platform will be around until 2012 to be replaced by C3XX in 2013.

I read your attachment about GM's new contract terms and I gotta say are you kidding me. These guys are way over paid for what they do. No wonder a Tahoe cost an arm and leg. Hell, a $5.00 an hour Wal-Mart greeter can do what these clowns are doing if not better. How hard can it be to tighten a few nuts and bolts. When looking at these super high salaries they become even higher when you add in about 30% or more for their benefits. No wonder the big three are going broke. That's my two cents. :mad2:
