I saw a John Deere truck and a Cat truck just a couple days ago.

Use care with the web as the lies are all around.

The YouTube channel that hosts the video (linked to in the first post) is comprised of nothing but fake cars. Seen one, seen them all.

Which sucks since GM still likes to harass and give cease and desist orders to the small group of fabricators trying to make Fiero branded parts.

I, one would think, GM should be approving of anything defunct "brand" parts needed. We are of no threat to their sales.

GM really does not mind when fabricators make Fiero branded parts; BUT GM demands that all fabricators 'pony-up' by being a "GM authorized reseller".

The rub comes when using "Pontiac", "Fiero" and the rampant horse. GM has a minimum 2 year contract

This I have/had to pay for and it is very expensive. It is an expense I have to pay whether I sell lenses or not.

The royalties I had to pay far exceeded the profit from the sales

It’s not you but the fact the Chinese will flood the market with un approved parts. It is bad enough noe but lose control of a name GM can’t stop them.

I wonder how this website is still up and running:

And be sure to hit the "view more" at the bottom. From shoes to clothes to watches.

After checking further it seems there are several different sites that claim that Pontiac is coming back. It appeared to be a hoax but I though that Id put it out there for comment. What I do not understand is the purpose of putting false information out there. Who does this benefit?

In regards to those fake car videos on YouTube... they're monetized, and every time someone falls for the "clickbait" and watches a video, the uploaders of the video get paid.
