Sorry for the false alarm….. I got duped by clickbait

Sorry for the false alarm folks….. there was an article in Yahoo Finance that stated GM was investing big money in Lansing Grand River for a new Camaro. Unfortunately it was recycled news from 2015 talking about the 2016. But the article was posted yesterday. My apologies

There is no source cited for that information

The only source cited for "unrelated" information is in regards to the Yenko SC variant done by an aftermarket shop in New Jersey

This same article was published in 2015 by the Detroit Free Press: https://www.freep.com/story/money/20...maro/28062331/

In short: Fake News + Click Bait.

Crap! You may be right. But Yahoo Finance is usually reliable.

Yahoo News?

My general rule of thumb is to laugh at the headlines of anything Yahoo "news" posts as "news". I've found that 10 times out of 9 Yahoo "news" gets it wrong!

I saw that same link but wanted to wait for a confirmation. It did look legit, though. There was nothing that said it was 10 years old. Obviously someones idea of a joke.

Believe me that’s the last time I’ll ever click on a Yahoo link. Burn me once, shame on you, burn me twice, shame on me.
