Maybe the pulse isn't as strong as we'd like, but there still is a pulse in the North American auto market and it has a chance to grow stronger.
It also looks like we're not in for a repeat of last year's nonesense with gas and oil price, although the commodity markets have been giving it a try again, making sure that price changes have nothing to do with actual supply and demand. Prices at the pump seem to have backed off their peak a bit, so that may help with the angst level out there.
Just like the doctor tells us, diet and exercise will work wonders for the health of GM
