Agreed. The biggest thing GM could is tell people that the mythical complete battery replacement on an EV isn’t real and batteries can be rebuilt.

You can buy nav updates. If you wait for deals $99. But you your point, we use car play so it doesn’t matter so much.

Because your point is simply a big negative of EVs is that they go through tires more quickly and it’s worse for the environment. I’m merely pointing out that big trucks and SUVs weigh even more and...
