True but Ithought we might ask nicely instead of yelling at 'em.

Trash that jingle and write one up for the bean counters. It seems they are running the place ( into the ground ). The Execs are out playing golf somewhere. I do know there are parts that need to be produced and nobody is at the helm to tell the workers to get off their duffs and ship them out.

The T/A in Hot Rod magazine a few months back looked better than the Camaro but I think the Pontiac faithful will be stuck with the 2nd gen Goat !

If they dont make the Bird or the TA again, yes it will pain me greatly, but if the next GTO is freaking awesome and fast, and is just the right amount of retro maybe like the 66 GTO or even the 69 GTO, then I will be satisfied
