    I’ve worked at a GM dealership for 20+ years, we had a prototype first Generation Chevrolet Equinox that was Hydrogen powered back in 2007-2008 that GM allowed us to keep for three weeks.

    We could only drive it for 100 miles as we had no way to refuel it in our area and they needed enough range to get it back to a refueling station!

    The start up was something to watch, at that time it sounded like a jet engine then a few minutes later it went silent and drove like a modern EV.

    This was a multi million dollar prototype so only management were able to drive it but everyone who wanted to go for a ride was given the opportunity, especially our sales staff.

    I even tasted the water coming from the exhaust, got a drop or two of the water coming from the exhaust, and it was clean!

    Amazing tech, especially for 2007-2008!

    Here is an easy way to know the best thing to do. Whatever FJB says, do the opposite. You will be right every time.
  • Finally they are doing something smart instead of going with the dumb politicians.

    It's important to buy cars when interest rates and prices are low. My financial advisor also gave me the same advice. When rates and prices are low, it can save you money on financing and make the overall cost more affordable.

    What does the bottom line of the consumers want is the most important. Low cost, low maintenance, long lasting and a safe vehicle.

    Toyota is the reason (I believe) that these giant companies are reconsidering (and should). Toyota has stood its ground on innovation over forcing the world to “go electric”. Innovation is first because it leaves room for common sense and common application of goods and services that serves its market and not its “stakeholders”.

    Knowing Bara, this might be a ploy to get the UAW to come around. One of the big issues was GM''s plan to build EV in China. They are already making them there but for the Asian market. The plan to offshore more American jobs has been a bog stumbling block for the UAW. Should be a big stumbling block for all Americans too. We bailed GM out and now they are ready to let China take more American jobs.

    I trust her about as far as I can throw a full sized GM car!

    Since Cummins Diesel, is bringing Hydrogen power to the Commercial Truck industry the infrastructure should be rapidly changing. Making this a very smart move.
  • @arlo4051
    It never made any sense how they would get the capacity to electrify the car market without having massive electric storage to supply the demand.

    Explains their pause in the battery plant joint venture recently. However, all these morons are forgetting the middle class buyer who will not accept these high priced, esoteric vehicles.

    Just imagine what might of been if company and federal research dollars were spent on nuclear power over the past 50 years
  • 1962 Chevy Bel Air, 283 V8, 3 speed on the column, heater but no AC, AM radio. You could fix anything on that car YOURSELF with simple hand tools and a Chilton mechanics manual. How about remembering when Chevy offered transportation options for the working man? Talk about a RADICAL idea...
  • @TheCrossroads533
    Nuclear is carbon free and a terrific way to generate H2. Plus it provides lots of electric power, via advanced reactors, stretching this fuel source for centuries

    With the rapid changes in technology these days, waiting to see what happens is the prudent choice. For now I'll keep driving my diesel powered Tahoe, getting 30+ miles to the gallon and even having to use DEF, it's a winner!

    Honda and GM just this week announced an end to their cooperative efforts for "cheap EVs". Honda has considerable real-world experience in hydrogen fuel-cell development with small and controlled Honda vehicle fleets in California in the very recent past.
    I've always hoped that fuel cells would win out, even though many of the same hurdles to widespread adoption exist. *I've also read recently that Toyota has been quietly working on fuel-cell technology as well. If it can be done in an economically feasible manner (both to the consumer and states/municipalities) that would be an incredible step forward for everyone - green or non-green.

    Wow. I have not been a GM fan since two crappy, new Chevys in the late '70s. But, I am impressed. EVs are the step-child of the conversion from gasoline to something cleaner, just as Stanley Steamer was between the horse and gas vehicles. THIS is the future. No disposing of huge, heavy metal batteries, which cost $24k +/- to replace. No dependency on our adversaries, and the only "residue" is water. GM, you may win me back.
  • Have you noticed all the Used Electric Cars sitting on car lots.?  I drive alot up and down the CA. State,  I've noticed a lot of EV showing up in these used car lots. I've even seen newer used  2023 models. That says it all, .. evidently not too many people like their EV .  Looks like more are going back to Gas.
