I think GM must’ve ruined his birthday at some point.
He mentions the Bolt, and that it was recalled, though he elides that it was LG’s fault, of course. And does mention that GM wants to build their own batteries but doesn’t put together the why that may be the case.
“...which is really GM in a nutshell, being full of itself without having earned it.”
Lol wut?
I think his hatred for GM makes him blind to the car’s existence. For how much he loves his Fit, the Bolt is basically the Fit of the BEV word (assuming the updated battery packs are ironed out).
A counterpoint: I’m fine with the Crown becoming an SUV. I do like sedans, but they are not the most practical form factor, let’s be honest. If Toyota is able to distill what made the Crown so successful into a more practical and attractive form factor, what’s not to like? I do hope they actually call it the Crown…
I really don’t understand why this is so much worse than so many of the cars we claim to love on here.

Nice to see Bradley writing about the biz side of HD, instead of Harley-hating, non-riding Erik.
Rory, this is obviously a heartfelt piece and I appreciate that. As with almost everything you publish here, it’s very well done.
