Pete --

I don't know why GM stopped making the V6 either, but I suspect the bean counters had a lot to do with it.

The story I like best, though, is the one my Dad tells. He claims that the dealer who sold him the one ton Suburban I have now told him that too many dealers were complaining to GM about not getting enough business in their service departments because the V6 owners never needed any work done on their trucks. The dealers got their way and wound up with small block Chevys.
