I feel bad for them...  I knew the Janesville plants days were numbered when they built the plant in Silao, Mexico that made the same product line.  Several friends worked there.  And lots of support plants also...Lear, LSI, ect.   Gonna be bad for Janesville...   :(

They make pickups in Mexico, the Suburbans, and Tahoes, are made in Texas, too.
I wonder how long they will keep that plant open? I also worry about GM in general, they
look like they are going down the tubes, as well!

Arlington, Texas...   They make Suburbans and Tahoes in Mexico as well as trucks, plus the powertrains (Gen III, Gen IV), plus a stamping plant and foundry...  Been there many times along with every other Powertrain plant GM owns...

Unfortunetly, I think it is appropriate to worry about GM - and Chrysler - and Ford....   :(

I was there last October. They has the O8 SE Ultra's on the floor for over $46,000.00 They also had 2 07's there for $44,900.00. I came back the next day & both 07's were sold @ $44,900.00. 8 grand over msrp and a year old. I guess there is a buyer for everything.I guess that's why they sell beer on site. These guys must be pissed to pay that kinda money. THE MUFFMAN

A famous quote form P.T. Barnum comes to mind...There's a .... born every..you know the rest... Greg

Muffman, these people aren't pissed, they're happy to pay the price and have their toys when they want them. I've stated before that I know for a fact how FB aquires the majority of the CVO's he sells.  Many poor /small state H-D dealerships cannot sell their allotment of CVO's but don't want to give them up because they want to be able to offer the full product line. They are happy to get MSRP even if it's from another dealer. As stated by the sales guy at FB's place, that's the only way they have so many to put on the floor. FB gets the Super RUB trade. These folks come down to Daytona for Bike Week or Biketoberfest and want what they want and want it now. It's like my story about the 1000 TC sheets elsewhere. They're used to be gouged. They think if they don't pay through the nose then they bought a 2nd quality product, a blem. I'm serious, these people have so much discretionary income they don't give a damn what something costs so long as they can have it when they want it. They're like overgrown 2 year olds and FB caters to them. I don't care for the guy, don't care for his tactics, but as somebody trying to figure out a new way to make a buck, I gotta say I admire his capacity for making money.

I paid $46,000 for mine.  Actually out the door at $50,000 included extended Warranty, Extended Service and Lo-Jack.  I know I got screwed price wise.  But they didn't twist my arm and I walked in and rode out the same day.  I don't have that kind of money to throw around.  But I'll just appreciate what I'm riding all the more.  I love my 09 SEUC.  Once the hook was set, they had me in their grasp.  I'm probably the dumbest SOB out here and probably paid more than anyone else.  But that goes by the wayside every mile I ride!   ...and at least I can admit to being screwed over!   :bananarock:

A great deal is one where you are happy with the transaction, and happy with the product you purchased, regardless of how much, or how little you pay.  If you are happy with the bike and it brings smiles and good feelings to you, just enjoy and don't worry about what somebody else paid.

I Know they are expensive, and I'm sure that I have more money into one particular woman that I won't ride as much as you ride that....
So its all relative...

Forget about what you paid for it, or if you think your not going to chit right for a week..

The price is not important now, that part is over.....
Its time to enjoy riding it...
