Speaking of cars with great looking faces...

People who substituted tomato soup for tomato sauce.

I was born in Altoona, have a lot of family still there, and spent a lot of time in the area up until I moved to the left coast.

That one was especially fun because we got to make a car Turducken

I’ll say this once:

“ Autocar DC cement mixer”

...AUTOCAR? Mais non, my friend. I get it; no one cares about trucks, but that very much appears to be a Berliet, which would be far more fitting for the venue.

You REALLY should look into the zany stuff that firm was putting out in the late ‘50s through their buy-out by Renault in the late…

“in a market that can’t get enough of big and stupid SUVs."

Auto workers in that town will go back to work and they will be assembling products that are supposedly on their way up instead of out. That’s the part that is supposed to make you feel good to hear. 

there isn’t a huge difference. Presumably because this is Trucks and not mid to full size cars GM will have to completely change out the assembly line equipment to fit a bigger box down the assembly line.

there are a couple advantages for a dedicated EV plant. mostly it frees you from having to use the same platforms…

You’re right, it would be similar cost to convert to ICE trucks from cars. I guess the hype around a dedicated EV plant is.... Milestones? Personally, I think it’s more impressive that they’re building EVs and ICE cars on the same line in Orion...

The process is likely going to be similar to ICE vehicles (Orion Assembly makes Sonics and Bolt EVs on the same line, so the process is almost 1:1), but D-Hamm specifically isn’t a truck plant. They need the proper tooling and such to go from Impalas and CT6s to trucks and SUVs. So bigger lines, spacing stuff out,…

Everything on EV’s are drive by wire so it will be a lot more electrical connectors than ICE. None of that is hard, but they will need special training for the batteries. Everything else should be plug and play. EV’s should be much easier to build

The thing you need to understand about David is, he’s just... wired differently. He lives for these quests.

I’d rather have Taco Bell, at least Taco Bell knows what they are.

Better than taco bell is not a hard bar to meet. 

I must be the only person who orders a burrito at chipotle.  It’s always bowls.

I saw “TRX Suspension” and assumed you meant the chassis package engineered by Michelin and offered on the gen-1 Fox body Mustangs. Not some crappy workout equipment.

Where do you attach the meat grinder, pasta maker, etc?
