GM: Best November since 2007

General Motors says it had its highest November sales since 2007.

GM’s sales are up 3.4 percent over last year. Passenger cars are up 19-percent overall, with Buick bumping up 22 percent, and Cadillac sales up 30 percent.

Kurt McNeil is GM’s U.S. vice president of sales.  He says the Volt's sales are way up too - and the car had a key milestone this month.  "We just hit our 100th million mile driven on pure electric, which equates to saving about 5 million gallons of gasoline."

McNeil says the company is hopeful strong sales will continue into next year - when a number of new products hit the market. "We think December is going to be a very positive month, it's a great time to buy a car, crossover or truck and we see that continuing into 2013."
