Automotive Guide Slightly Lower Fuel Prices Could Give GM a Major Break

Can the lower oil prices help General Motors pull off a rebound in sales in the forth quarter? Many automaker analysts think so and most GM auto dealers certainly hope so too. Lower crude prices mean lower gasoline and diesel prices and for GM that means more truck sales and SUVs, which are their highest profit selling models. In fact the pull back in gasoline prices and the Slightly lower Fuel Prices could give GM a Major Break, one that shareholders would gladly take right about now.

Apparently, rumor has it that sales are slightly up since the recent lowering of the gasoline prices in Late September of 2006, but no one is certain how long that will hold for. Dealers are saying that they are selling more SUV and Truck models than in August and early September and if it keeps up this could round out an okay year in US Automaker sales?

Some people still want smaller cars and hybrids but there are not enough available yet and that should continue well into 2007. Even Toyota and Honda cannot produce enough of the hybrid hot sellers. There is still a huge 2006 inventory to get rid of some of large US Automaker auto models still, but these lower prices are helping and the longer the prices stay low the better for the Big Three indeed. Consider all this in 2006.
