This. I happen to enjoy not busting my rim and blowing out a tire when I fail to dodge a massive pothole. We’re now entering an era where people get after market rims to make them SMALLER.

too soon.

I was on the side of the union and generally thought G/O leadership sounds terrible, but then I saw the official statement from GMG that used the phrase “speak truth to power” in a non-sarcastic manner and I instantly thought “holy crap, this is the type leadership had to deal with” and now I’m on the fence.

I’m very confused by this article. The tone makes it seem like this is unprecedented. This has been common practice for years. Ask the folks that bought an 03 Cobra rated at 390hp about their dyno figure. Also, two cars that came off the line one after the other will dyno at different figures. The variability is…

I’m generally not a supporter of unions, but the free market isn’t working like it should since the recovery. Companies will leave a position unfilled or move the work outside of the country if they can’t find someone to fill a spot for $10/hr. When unemployment is 3.6%, you have to raise wages to fill vacancies.…

Assuming you’re a waiter or barista from your insanely presumptuous generalization of what people with real jobs do when they travel for them.

Tuning this car for understeer is going to save a lot of lives and countless accidents. People have been driving front engine Corvette’s for 50+ years. My guess is 99.99% have never driven a mid-engine car even remotely as powerful, so your typical owner is going to get a C8 and drive it exactly like they would a C7.…

This is the same type of guy that mocks your new Vette/Stang/M series/etc purchase because he has a 98 Civic with $3000 in mods that’s faster. No point in debating.

I’m highly sympathetic to Google employees, some of the most generously compensated people in the world, and their plight struggling to survive in such a brutal corporate environment (free food, drinks, tons of leisure activities, loose responsibilities, nap pods, etc). They really need a union.

Because Porsche and GM operate at the same scale.

Nobody has ever been “forced” into a new car in the history of the world. 

It’s fairly common for engineers to make $200k+ in Silicon Valley, which is why I said depending on location.

Sometimes I’m not sure what the point of an article is. Is it to pander to folks in your echo chamber or to inform and convince those outside of the echo chamber on your point of view? If the former, job well done. The latter; terrible article.

Dude, if you’re an IT worker with a degree and 20 years experience and you’re not earning $100k-200k range (depending on location), you probably aren’t very good.

“Keeping wages low” is the most ridiculous thing I’ve read this month. Congrats. 

The idiot shooting this video makes uncle Rico look like James Cameron. Worst. Video. Ever.

UAW strikes have always annoyed me, but this one is different. GM breached the agreed upon contract by closing those plants while simultaneously allocating new production to Mexico. Yes, tooling was in progress at the Mexico plant far before the decision was officially made to shutter the US plants, but these…
