GM already had a Hybrid Silverado and people didn't appear to want it back then -- or it cost too much.

You could go with a tag on the differential cover. Although, the 6th gen's diff is a funny-looking thing.

Nailed it.

Gen 5 was a bold departure from 20 years of hatchback design. I think a lot more could have been done to make the rear seat more usable and quell practicality issues with the trunk. Gen...

Nice! Yeah, the bottom sheet was the one I was talking about. I don't have mine, or maybe it's in the car. Probably got tossed. Oh well.

That's what I like about Barra's segment on Today. It was about choice. But I can see why GM is still targeting all-EV on the horizon. If you give an automaker a choice to produce a much lower-cost...

My point was dealers and automakers are having to reach deeper than the $7500-max EV tax credit to move some EV's compared to vehicles of similar price because those incentives are greater right now....

Yeah, $100k is an outlier, but low mile third gens are generally insane like you said. Plenty of examples going for 40-60k. With 305's.

Late 4th gens are starting to exceed their original MSRP's....

For track use I don't disagree at all. Tenths of a second matter and 1% whp gain is meaningful, and like you said, you can actually destroy a cat converter.

I'd add that's not a smoking gun against EV's. Have you seen the incentives on gas pickups lately? $10k isn't unheard of. High prices and interest rates are strong headwinds for all segments right...

Thanks for sharing. That's more of a bump than I would have expected.

Gains of ~20hp up top, or about 6-6.5 at the wheel. On a 490hp car, that's a 4% increase, or just over 1% at the wheels.

Then why is food, gas, and diesel subsidized in the US? Why are kids subsidized? And that's 100% fact.

There's no demand for any of those things, right? :smiling1:

Let's explain it this way. Ford can't make $130,000 on every EV sold. It's amortizing the cost of its R&D for EV platforms and EV car models, which every carmaker has to do. Even if sales are strong,...

Jeep is soldering on with the Grand Cherokee name so I think the Pontiac name would be safe to come back if GM wanted it to.

That's good context for why '23 is somewhat of an outlier. The previous C8 model years are looking pretty good too, even though times were uncertain.
