I look at it a little different. GM got a 1hr show for nothing and I saw a lexas ad and sponsored by acura which paid for part of the production of the show plus other ads which were so short I refilled or ? you know. Also NG editing does not know v6 from v8 and so on. Otherwise I was in amazement of the tech being used and how precise things can be produced, and how hard the workers work on their shift. Thanks Oshawa!!!!

I saw the wheel weights when they were attaching the brake assembly. I couldn't help but look for them, and then I laughed thinking everyone from this forum is going to notice them also!!!

And to be more accurate, before the bankruptcy, the GM hourly labor cost was $72 all in including legacy costs for retirees, etc.

18 hours x $72 is $1300 so if the represented employees worked for free as a hobby you could expect a $1300 savings, not 10,000.

I was surprised that they didn't talk about the v8 more. Only mentioned it in passing. But seems like they showed an ss car.
