End of Kodiak?
Yahoo Message Number: 103639
In an article in this morning's L.A. Times:
 "GM said Tuesday that it would close plants in Oshawa, Canada; Moraine, Ohio; Janesville, Wis., and Toluca, Mexico. Several thousand jobs could be affected. Those plants are responsible for pickup trucks and SUVs such as the Chevrolet Silverado, the GMC Envoy and the medium-duty Chevy Kodiak and are expected to end production no later than the end of 2009."
 Apparently, in the bankruptcy, GM was unable to find a buyer for the Kodiak line and therefore plans to discontinue production of it this year.

Wonder what Steve's plans are for that beautiful coach design.

 We had this discussion a few weeks ago when the news about Kodiak's apparent demise first came out, so you might want to refer back to those messages. It's certainly very unfortunate for Lazy Daze, after Steve spent two years polishing the new design.
