When General Motors reinvented itself (on paper, anyway), the company's press release talked about selling GM vehicles on eBay. Unfortunately, that wasn't a done deal -- at least not from eBay's perspective. However, GM is still hot for the idea, and Chevrolet's Ed Peper has explored selling the Volt that way (likely to avoid tacking on high dealer markups). Sounds like GM is really hoping to piss off dealers even more than they already have. Just an FYI, Ed: joining one fuzzy brand to another fuzzy brand isn't going to make anyone look sharper.
