General Motors has just announced that they will be laying off 3,000 more employees due to slow sales of SUVs effected plants will include Flint Michigan and other plants in the US and Canada.

As a note you think someone might tell GM to convert a few plants to Hybrid Vehicles since gas prices are now $3.60 average and will hit $4 or more this year.

Sales of the Toyota Prius are at an all time high for 2008. Toyota is expected to surpass Ford and GM as America’s largest Auto Seller by the end of 2008.
