If you read some of the reports the highest cost workers are what GM considers “skilled tradesmen.” They are making $35/hour and receive the majority of the overtime. So they didn't "assumed they could earn a good living with no skills or education" but thanks for being uninformed.

I know what you're up to! You're one of THOSE people. I don't have any of those bags and I don't give you permission to search the premises.
Unless your 323 is lowered several inches i dont see why youre that worried. My car is lowered 2 inches and I only really need to worry about poorly designed parking lot ramps and overly tall speed bumps.
Oh man looks like “lets all pretend to be boomers” is leaking into Jalopnik.
