I think this had been coming for a while.
The Ford mindset is to monitor sales monthly and size the business to suit.
It seems that the GM mindset may not be as aggressive. I think there will be more anouncements about Holdens health in the next few months.
Their 'Golden egg' G8 is a flop and they are not selling anywhere near what they need-to to make money on their 'Billion dollar baby'. I'm tipping a big loss for them when they release their 2008 financial results.
I hope they have a business plan which is more than 'Commodore' and its exports, otherwise they're gone !!
