Gamer ◊ 2017-11-25 22:56	Well, only in Canada.
night cub ◊ 2017-11-25 22:58	In Canada, the dealerships were more spread out, so some brands had to expand their lineups to carry a full line of vehicle types. For Mercury and Plymouth (under the Fargo brand), that meant selling trucks in addition to cars at their dealerships. I believe GMC was always paired with Pontiac too.

night cub ◊ 2017-11-26 00:25	So Pontiac/GMC and Buick?
Baube ◊ 2017-11-27 05:38	yep Chevy was with Olds and Caddy Saturn Saab and Isuzu were together as well for a while i don't know if it was the same all over Canada but in my area it was i think Hummer was available only in selected ( Chevy ? ) dealers -- Last edit: 2017-11-27 05:45:41
train68 ◊ 2018-04-17 15:11	Now I'm curious. Did Plymouth and Pontiac ever build trucks?
Gamer ◊ 2018-04-17 15:55	Plymouth did build (light duty) trucks until shortly after the war, but Pontiac didn't dare until the advent of the G8 Sport Truck - just before they went broke.
