Yes, you are good at stoking fires. It seems every time you buy a new car it's the best. You should own a car dealership.

According to my friend at GM, the Camaro was killed to keep the Corvette. Blame Biden, the green new scam, and his EPA for the death of the Camaro (again). The only hope for it as an ICE powered car we would recognize and love, the emissions limitations need to be raised. I'm hoping Trump will do it. It would also help if the economy improved, wages increased and interest rates go down. We'll see.

Now woke apparently means "anything I don't like". What about GM could possibly be classified as "woke"?
Woke: alert to and concerned about social injustice and discrimination

Some of my contacts inside GM have also told me that its not due to the tariffs or the election but that they have too much money sitting on lots that they are unable to sell. They have a severe cashflow issue that is not exclusive to GM but many of the larger auto manufacturers. It is fact that right now their is more stock sitting in lots than has ever been in the past and auto manufacturing is set to decrease this year due to this. 2025 is going to be a SLOW year in the auto manufacturing sector and it will be difficult times for GM, Stellantis, Ford, Nissan for sure. Believe what you'd like to though, that's your right. |

What they don't grasp is if a woman could throw a 101mph fastball, somehow their team wouldn't be "woke" if they signed her. It would only be about performance. In this case many, even on this site, don't see the performance in Mary's case. And worse some have a notion that the Camaro being cancelled was all her so, therefore "woke".

![]() i didn't see the name calling when men bankrupted GM, and the Camaro was 6 years out of production. of course, social media and politics were a lot different 20 years ago

Copied from GM website:
"Under Barra’s leadership, GM envisions a world with zero crashes, to save lives; zero emissions, so future generations can inherit a healthier planet; and zero congestion, so customers get back a precious commodity – time. She is focused on creating the best customer experience and strengthening GM’s core vehicle and services business, while also working to deliver transformative technologies such as electrification, autonomous driving and software. Prior to becoming CEO, Barra served as GM executive vice president, Global Product Development, Purchasing and Supply Chain, and as senior vice president, Global Product Development. In these roles, Barra and her teams were responsible for the design, engineering and quality of GM vehicle launches worldwide. Previously, she served as vice president, Global Human Resources; vice president, Global Manufacturing Engineering; plant manager, Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly; and in several other executive engineering and staff positions." There are a few statements in here that COULD point to the "woke" agenda. I do not see them as a woman issue though. |
