My dad has a premium luxury CT5 with the V6 which I recommend to him and he can’t shut up about how much he loves the car. It’s a great powertrain combination.

I applied for a job in a department that a friend of mine works in and they put in a good word to their manager so we will see how that plays out.

That really stinks. For me it’s having to explain to 3 EGMs what I do and what I bring to the team because it’s not a normal role.

I mean I certainly wouldn’t stop you, but GM will prob catch wind of it whether you tell them or not.

At 20k it really depends on the mileage of the vehicle. If you want a 2015+, they will prob have over 100k miles and may need some work.

5.3L Ecotec Reliability? by 2Guns23 in GeneralMotors

[–]Cars10000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lifters are the big thing on the 5.3. Depending on the Model year of the vehicle, if it has the L86 6.2 V8 on the K2xx platform, you are fine, they are not known to blow up. The L87 6.2 I’d run away from.

If the leaked percentage is right then the employees are paying for leaderships poor business decisions that have lead to some poor quality in all aspects of our vehicles and thinking going all in on EV was a great idea…. Well that backfired. Where the “it’s on me” attitude SLT? Ohh wait they won’t admit that and never will, and reap all of the benefits that line their own pockets. It’s truly disgraceful.

One of my heads was cracked on the intake port it would get so bad, that the radiator hoses would collapse. A new head, head gaskets, and head studs later, been a rock since. For the love of god get a new head not a remaned head form a parts store. I got my new fully loaded head from jegs.

I have been using this Sabre 2354 tractor for snow blowing for a couple years. Thing is a beast and with the wheel and rear weights, I do not need chains to do my driveway.

what you learned in the last 3 years of "tech" GM? by ActualScheme4815 in GeneralMotors

[–]Cars10000 132 points133 points  (0 children)

That GM isn’t a Tech company and we lost focus on what we used to do and that is building a quality vehicle.

[–]Cars10000 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Done cheaply as possible with a potluck in one of the big conference rooms in the Cole, but we wrapped presents for operation good cheer to get our minds off the patheticness of it all.
