Are you kidding me.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Truck literally breaks down in front of 20k people in the arena and millions on the tube. There are so many one liners to zing out but the image seems to have done the best job. Mahk is going to have a field day with his one.

That, as they say, is not good.

Not good indeed.

Mary Barra’s GM is impressing me less and less every day. I’ll predict she cancels the mid engine Corvette as a cost saving move to bump the stock price $.15.

Hot Take: some soon to be unemployed GM workers MADE it fail

Makes me keep considering a Toyota for a truck.

Ford’s North American SUV Communications Manager, Dan Jones, was in attendance and tweeted that the Silverado needed to be towed off the ice by a one of the Zambonis, but that turned out to be a lie as the truck’s 5.3-liter V8 eventually restarted and it was ignominiously driven off the ice.

Is GMAuthority prone to brand-sensitive butthurt? “Lie” is a pretty strong word to use here.

What a little weasel. Should have let the results speak for themselves, don’t lie.

I mean, did it have to be towed off the ice like the Ford rep said?

I mean, they’re pretty good trucks.

I just wish that they’d pay me to drive  the truck, because $39k CAD at the starting point for anything in stock makes me and my wallet sad.

The tweet certainly suggested that that was about to happen. But that’s the thing- it was an anticipatory statement . The word “lie” suggests that he knew the trut h and reported otherwise. Premature celebration? Certainly . But it was never intended to be a lie.

I read what the Ford guy wrote multiple times and still can’t figure out WTF he meant.

Hmmm. Now that you put it that way...

today’s GM stock closing price. $ 36.76

Mid engine Corvette would be $ 100k minimum

I could a fford  to p urchase 100 stocks today and if Mary Barra cancels the Mi d engine corvette that causes a 15cent increase I could make a whopping $ 15 profit becuase I can’t even dream of buying a mid engine Corvette.

So, is $ 15 profit   or knowing and seeing that the Mind Engine Corvette exists? tough choice. ;)

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > boredalways 11/29/2018 at 22:13

He definitely tried to call it too soon. Shoulda waited until he had a picture of towing in progress.

But it wa s still just a mere prediction. It’s not like h e’s  trying to spin some fake news after the fact.

If it makes it any better, I have a 11 Silverado that has 250k trouble free miles and still going strong. So all Chevy’s aren’t bad, however this specific truck is a bad truck, don’t buy it off the ice.

No, it drove off the ice under its own power.

I believe that the ford rep intended to say that it should be towed off the ice. His words can be taken two ways with the use of the word “needed”.
