"GM has failed to design efficient cars in favor of gas guzzler SUV( this time it is not a slam against SUV drivers"
Well now how do you suppose that could happen? How could GM sell SUVs without any buyers? That's like sayting you support the troops but not the war.
Why are Toyota, Honda, Nissan, consistantly the leading seller in the US? They make well built efficent cars. GM, FORD, etc have had the SUV market cornered. However, they never planned for a tightening gas supply. That was stupid on their part.
