I had an experience with GM's decision making once. I rented a small SUV (I know, but just ignore that for now) called the Captiva. It was pretty nice. Ideal size, drove well, fit all of us. I went online to look it up, it didn't exist for retail sale. It was specifically made for rental fleets. The "equivalent" was the Equinox. Ok, so I went and drove that. Another POS, not even close. GM didn't sell the Captiva because it would cannibalize sales of the Equinox. That was my one near purchase of a GM product. I went on to buy the Acura RDX.
