They can take some of the necessary cars from other brands and move them to one of those three lines.
A few example of models that cross the GM brands:

GMC Acadia, Chevy Traverse, Saturn Outlook, and the Buick Enclave - Same vehicle, jut re-badged and and different trim packages.

Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura - Same fucking car

Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra - again same fucking thing.

Chevy Avalanche - Cadillac Escalade EXT - Same

Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon, Cadillac Escalade - Same thing

Chevy Suburban, GMC Yukon XLT - Same thing

There are a lot more that cross the boundaries. So yeah you can clearly see where the fat needs to be cut. And like you said GMC could go away completely and no one would miss it.
