Gear6

The Pontiac G6 which GM has had pinned so many hopes on has been a slow seller as of late even with Oprah giving them away! GM has now announced that the Orion Township plant will reduce G6 output by more than 10 percent and lay off an unspecified number of line workers starting in April. Factory employees were told that between 250 and 400 people would be laid off across two shifts. GM had added a second 900-worker shift at the plant last spring to support stronger than expected sales of the G6. Just last week Pontiac announced that they would be building a G6 convertible to help boost sales.
