Where and when did Mary publicly announce - interview, press conference, twitter, facebook, etc - that GM is the number one in EV production? You are living up to your name. Please provide evidence. Remember - GM did deliver EV pickups and EV full size vans in the US last year (2021). GM never promised a semi. GM did deliver a pickup. Where is the **** truck? Is Mary Barra CLINICALLY INSANE or is GM really global EV leader?

Van - I hope you do not get all your information from youtube where individuals can use sound bites to make anything. I only watched a few seconds to see that this was definitely a biased presentation, and the sound bite was "not cede our leadership". If you find a reputable source, I believe that she had indicated that GM was leader in pickup sales and was not planning to "cede our leadership". Are you trying to save your stock? And yes, if you add all the GM pickups, GM did outsell all other OEMS.

How did that work out for you buddy? How is this for a segue? He talks of Prius issues with batteries. Then all of a sudden a right turn to blame "Tusk" for it. Excuse me but your slip (do they still use them when they meant to show their thongs) is showing. ![]() |

Don't you love those idiots? I bet his Tesla would have still fetched a good price even if it's battery is shot. But what do I know about the fools and their money? Reminded me of those similar brain-dead down South who burned all their Nike's because of the brand's association with Kaepernick with his kneeling protest. But here's a better story. A woman, newly widowed, put out an ad to dispose off her husband's Land Rover, disclosing it's need a $4,000 gear repairs, in exchange for a no-cash out decent Japanese entry level car or a sub-compact. Turns out the Land Rover still have some really collector's (I suspect, a Defender) value. The good gentlemen had it repaired and sold it. Then he went back to the widow to split his profit with her. I hope this Tesla burning dude is not your role model. ![]() |

This thread has gone on far too long. I wish Tesla would start production and start delivering a steady flow semis so it could be over and done with.
