Buick has been the best of the bunch for quality, something that Detroit
could use a little more of.


It's my understanding that Buick will be kept. It is considered one of
GM's "core" brands, along with Chevrolet, Cadillac, and GMC. Pontiac
will be shrunk to a niche brand, and Saturn, Hummer, and Saab will be
gone.


GMC = Trucks
Chevy = Low end vehicles
Buick = Mid-level vehicles
Cadilac = High end vehicles.

Everything else should be thrown in the crapper.
