They rebuilt the towanda plant almost from the ground up for these engines. I’ll reserve judgement for now.

There have been plenty of studies done and I will post them here if your interested in the pure science. End result is that depending on the EV manufacturer, some loose range faster than others. Yet for the most part, EV battery packs will last far longer than the fear of the ICE folks are trying to say you will pay for.

Just my own take on how I am seeing things as GM tries to get in front of their engine issues.

What are you talking about? They’re new. Just because they use the same displacement as an engine from 1996 or the 1960s doesn’t make them old

You’re now only putting in 50kw (plus or minus some from charging losses)

@Drew Dowdell & @G. David Felt , when BEVs lose battery capacity due to age and/or charging habits, etc. do you still charge the full capacity and it's just a less efficient vehicle? Or do you only charge to the new capacity? For example, If I have a 100kWh battery that has degraded 50% (simple numbers for simplicity). When I charge do I still put 100kWh into the battery and I'm using two times the amount to go from A to B? Or am I now only putting in 50kWh, as that is what the capacity has degraded to? Does the question make sense?

GMC News, Denali has a new higher trim level, the Denali Ultimate trim. Blah ugly all black interior imho.

This is totally expected as used EV sales have skyrocketed as people dump the gas guzzlers. https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/gm-says-buyers-are-moving-away-from-pickups-faster-than-expected/ar-AA25SjWu?ocid=msedgntp&pc=W069&cvid=6a334d1b1b004c0a86bdb27cb1f9c27c&ei=30 Interesting how they are attempting to state that OLD is New and better again. Welcome the old 5.7L and 6.6L V8 engines again. Nothing new, just rehashed.

I'm no Hurricanes fan, but I am a despiser of the Golden Knights and love that your Hurricanes won! Congrats! It's a really fun time of life when one of "your teams" wins a championship, especially when it's a series and there's a month-long build up of the playoffs. I remember the 2019 Blues championship run and it was such an exciting month+. Everyday I was either talking about last night's game or talking about tonight's game with a fellow Blues fan coworker or friends.
