Pontiac. Should have killed GMC or Cadillac, gave it all to Chevy and made Pontiac the more performance/enthusiast brand.

GM went down the tubes when they got rid of Olds and Pontiac.

The one at the border of North Brunswick and Edison is a Bonefish Grill now

I remember the orange Slice sodas.
I live in Nokesville, VA but the Fuddrucker's that's still around is in Woodbridge, VA.
A couple of places that I miss are Baja Fresh and Quiznos. They're still around but not like they used to be. Closest ones are 30+ miles away.
And it looks like Cici's Pizza is on it's way out, too. Nearest one is closed permanently.

We still have those here
Saab
Best airline I ever flew on.
Oldsmobile,
My grandpa was an Olds guy, and His Last Car was my First.
1987 Olds Ninety-Eight Regency Brougham.
unfortunately, that was also around the time they killed the brand... I should have Follwed his pattern*, and Replaced the 87, with a 97, but they ended Production with the 96 model year... I ended up replacing it with a Sonata instead...
that 87 FWD 3.8l machine, replaced his Rusted out, 250k mi, 1977 Ninety-Eight, with the Olds 400 (well, 403 according to Wikipedia) which was the only reason the dealer took that car on trade...he wanted that 400 for his boat.
