Hard to teach someone who is incentivized not to listen. Car dealerships earn 50% of their gross margins on vehicle repairs. Half of the money coming in the door is from that small repair shop on the property.
Convince someone to give up half their business that is much of the driver for even existing in the first place. GM went through this with some of the EV releases and bought out many of their dealers who just hard refused to support.

My LCS never had germania mint , and if they do its 10 ozers that i cant afford 🫤🫤 my first bar was a 100g GM and i need more!

I owned an electric Focus. The fact you don't know it existed is funny.
Ford did what the other big companies did and limp wristed the EV effort. The focus EV range was trash, the Mach E charging and quality was garbage, the truck is not an EV platform but a redone regular f150 etc. Dodge did the same BS and same with GM. Instead of developing actual EVs, they keep trying to use Ice platforms covered to EV.
Until they design an actual EV platform, and overcome dealer issues, they'll continue to drown.

Yes, Ryan Cohen moved a significant portion of his GameStop (GM E) shares to a Charles Schwab account in April 2025. This move followed his January 2025 transfer of 36,847,842 shares from his investment vehicle,
RC Ventures LLC, to his personal name.
Summary of Share Movements
• The Transfer: In April 2025, reports and SEC filings indicated that Cohen moved approximately 22.3 million shares into a margin account at Charles Schwab Corp..
• Purpose: The primary purpose of this move was reportedly to secure a margin loan, using roughly 60% of his stake as collateral to gain personal liquidity.
• Current Stake: As of January 2026, Cohen has continued to increase his position.
Following multiple open-market purchases in early 2026, his total ownership has risen.
So yes, he’s got most of his shares at Schwab and in margin. So yeah…..

We’re in ICE vehicles as well, EV’s is not the end all be all. Think GM supercruise, Fords Blue Cruise, Stellantis vehicles that have Active driver assist, we’re in all of their gas vehicles equipped with these features ;)

They're between the same rock and hard place companies like Harley Davidson are.  Even if they want to innovate, a lot of their key demographic is allergic to it.
Harley learned by building an actually good product in the V-Rod.  American HD owners HATED it.  
Regarding the Bolt- it was reported/believed GM took an $8-$9k loss on every one sold.  
Outside of high-end trucks and SUVs, in much lesser volume than now, I don't see how the big 3 will survive beyond the next decade.  The pivot to small, efficient and innovative cars is an uphill battle their competitors don't have.  UAW costs, red tape, investors who see the billions lost on EVs here, and alienating the existing customer base that's keeping them afloat.  And now even Japan and Korea need to be worried about China.

GM went hard on electric SUVs, not trucks. But the really large ones are insanely expensive, so saw very small volume. Electric CUVs are still seeing some business, though.

All I said was that Ford would never realistically decline bailout money unless they had reasons. And those reasons would not be altruistic. I never told you to buy GM. If I were going to tell you to buy a vehicle it would not be a domestic car.
Stop fanboying things. It’s weird.

That's the only spot they had margin on.  Nobody under 40 wants a Ford anyway, and they certainly didn't want to pay the US production cost premium when Toyota and Honda are churning out good cars cheap.  
It really was one of the few good decisions Ford, and GM for that matter, have made in many years.  

Dude, US automakers have already been laying off Canadians for months now and playing games with our jobs. GM just shut down their EV plants here after swindling our government out of millions of dollars of funding. Why would we keep working with a partner that is flaky at best? Better to diversify and be open to deals with Chinese automakers maybe opening plants here in Canada rather than letting the US continue to strangle our market.
The amount of cars being imported at the reduced rate is exactly how many Teslas have been sold in canada, in terms of the EV market it's opening the door, and allowing actual competition into a closed market.

GM makes the equinox ev and blazer ev. I have an equinox ev myself only minor complaints with it. It's also not expensive.

if they would have made an electric explorer or expedition instead of the lightning it would have killed.
i cannot fathom the decision to make a pickup electric over a family hauler SUV.
really shocked GM/Ford went so hard on pickups instead of SUVs.
Or, make an electric Maverick. A small work truck like that could have been fleet status for plumbers/electricians etc.

Even inside the US, if you want an affordable, reliable, efficient and AMERICAN-MADE car, SUV or pickup truck?
Buy a Toyota.
Seriously, they just make great, affordable vehicles that last forever and more of their manufacturing process is inside the continental US than GM, Ford, or whatever Chrysler got amalgamated into

Ford and GM are probably done for in the long term. They just cannot seem to innovate or build decent cars for a decent price

I exited both my GM and Ford positions this year for nice gains. I feel smart

I blamed what on protectionism? I said the only reason US car manufacturers are surviving is because of protectionism. They’re inherently uncompetitive and tariffs aren’t exactly going to incentivize Ford/GM into better engineering and faster innovation cycles. The only thing it’s doing is delaying their deaths.

Ok so you’re just looking for whataboutisms got it. No intelligent discussion to be had. Tsla is a shitstock and in the next recession will get absolutely smoked. Also on a yearly chart GM has way outperformed TSLA. I think you may be slow

GM is up 72% so what?
TSLA is underperforming and still has stock price increase.

BYD operates in EV market. Ford also has EVs and it does not manage to sell EVs.
If you look only at shares, you are blind but whatever.

Are you slow? GM is up 72% in a year
Almost everything you have said has been wrong ima amazed you even remember to breathe

This can't be emphasized enough - it's the tariffs. GM is suffering from this, too.
That's what you get for electing a moron who loves turning partners into enemies. And he *still* hasn't learnt his lesson :-/
