The reorganization plan released today calls for 9 North American facilities to close - which ones?

Probably none in Michigan....too many tax incentive thrown in the past few years to keep jobs here.

Wilus1mj-- Pretty much every GM plant in the country has benefited from tax incentives and breaks, but that never makes a difference when deciding to close a facility.

They've long ago cut their blue-collar Michigan operations down to the bone. That doesn't mean they won't cut more, but for some time now the other states have taken the brunt of the perpetual downsizing, and I wouldn't expect it to be much different this time around.

Pontiac East. No reason to have full size pick ups made at three facilities. The others being Ft. Wayne and Oshawa, ONT.
