As you have mentioned before, it's a great lineup that offers nearly everything for the enthusiast...except a manual.

They may be sticker or appearance packages but they sell like hotcakes.

I don't mind sticker packages. It would just be nice to see GM put some effort in and release packages that actually increase performance.

Evidence that ICE trucks will continue on for some time. It’s sorta buried in the text of this article reporting confirmation of a BEV GMC Sierra-ish truck, but it’s something we (IHS Markit) have been forecasting for quite sometime. We expect Cadillac will be all BEV, with the possible exception of maintaining an ICE Escalade (because cash-cow). We expect other brands to have 2-4 BEVs each, with the rest of their portfolios staying ICE. At least for as long as most of us will still be amongst the driving public.

GM is only doing this because the charging infrastructure isn't there yet across the country. And it's still slower than to pump gas. Once/if they solve the convenience issues, end user experience if you will, charging availability, and they improve the battery tech/motors, you can bet ICE is gone.

Point - it will be a slow transition, and if the miraculous battery improvements that I've been hearing about for 25 years never happen, Hydrogen fuel cell will quickly take over the ICE market share and easily out pace EVs due to inefficient batteries and their production.

In the same way the electrical infrastructure can be upgraded, so can hydrogen delivery. It's not, oh it's possible for EV but nothing else...

Given the opportunity to “ refuel” everyday at home while you sleep, or driving to a hydrogen refueling station...for the sake of argument let’s say that you can get hydrogen at 50% of the gas station locations available today...what would most consumers do? I argue that they would refuel at home. Infrastructure for long range EVs (200+ mile range) is only needed for long trips.

Tried the Chevy build a Silverado. What a mess, it built it fine, didn't offer here's a close match. I picked 3 local dealers to contact me, 1 emailed me saying we will contact you (didnt) the other 2 didn't even acknowledge. Its a shame as one dealer has 54 on their lot.. Is Chevy kicking so much sales butt they don't need me? SMH
