The new front end should make the square wheel wells invisible. Still waiting on them to make a rounded cab.

had to make the hood line taller to fit the little turbo 4 cylinder?

I'll be interested in reviews of the little 4 pot engine.

Been driving my bosses Dodges half a diesel, never towed with it but its a peppy full size 4 door truck getting 21 mpg around town. Only has 20,000 mile on it with zero problems so far. Its a plush black on black beast with all the bells and whistles. He never buys always lease, so far all good. He did have to black out some of the front grill , way to much bling up there.

There's no replacement for displacement, or so they say. They have to turbo charge a 4 cyl. to get enough power out of it. Read overtax it, over work it. It's yet to be seen, but I have my doubts about longevity. Sure they'll have enough to get them out of warranty but for those individuals that don't view there vehicle as disposable the jury is still out.

not to mention the fact that GM is shutting down multiple plants in the USA and moving them to mexico

tax payers bailed them out just so they could make ugly trucks and shut down USA factories

Do you have a source for that? They are shutting down some US and Canadian plants, so the existing plants in Mexico will be producing a larger share of the total. I can't find anything about new plants in Mexico.

I had to do some searching for this myself. i thought they were nixing the Cruise. But one article said it was moving to mexico.

I've read 5 articles and found no mention of plants going to Mexico? Are those existing plants? Maybe Im missing something? ( No Comments MOE!!) Closing single shift plants, re tooling for more suv/truck packages. Volts going by by I hear... I know of two Volt owners and they are very impressed. EV Still don't pencil out in the end... Hybrids much better..

He's just blowing off steam w/o regard for accuracy.

In all fairness, and I'm not sure they deserve it, they can't keep an entire plant and it's overhead open for a single model of that volume. GM had better start making some good decisions it has defeated them in the past. With short term, path of least resistance, guiding their decisions without regard for long term sustainability. Kinda like politicians, I'll be gone when that bill comes due.
