At some point I think GM felt it safe to just ignore the sedan crowd because those customers weren't adding that much to the bottom line. As such in real life, cut the losses and move on.

Ceramic spray-ons do only last a few months, but that's better than days or a week or two for a typical carnauba paste or synthetic wax.

Griot's 3-in-1 Ceramic spray is one of the better and more...

No, using your Meguiar's wash and wax will not be a problem. It contains minimal wax anyway.

Where does the 2.7L 4-cylinder Silverado fit into GM's CAFE equation? It doesn't get great fuel economy, but it must win them points with the EPA in some category?
