Yes, I was surprised by the Hybrids, and I was curious about the Jeep GC 4xe, discovered the battery pack is from out of the country and so it gets only half the credit.

Ug, this is not good, engine stall due to poor software quality. Stellantis issues recall of over 175,000 Dodge, Jeep vehicles due to engine issues (msn.com)

I could handle the squid, octopus as I like calamari. Lamb is a deal breaker for me. gamey and just not a flavor of meat I enjoy. Tried too many times even the way Muslims cook it with heavy spice and lamb flavor is just not something I like. Pretty much having grown up in a family of hunters, I have tried Bear, Moose, Elk, Deer, Mountain Goat and my more wild animals as well as regular lamb and goat and it is a hard pass. I will stay with the 3 basic meats, Beef, Pork and Chicken.

I agree with you that Cadillac should have NOT gone down stream and I can tell you in the past few years we have had plenty of discussions here where many feel the same that Cadillac should have focused on upstream. Buick / GMC has it's place as GMC really is the Cadillac of the Truck/SUV area with the Denali Trim. Buick is that mid luxury trim level that has it's place but even now with Chevrolet having trucks/SUVs that hit 6 figures, Buick is a relic of the past and could go away for the US market. GMC still give GM way more profit and truck/SUV sales with their Professional Grade marketing that many like and as such, I can see it living on along with Chevrolet. GMC should just cover the mid premium to upscale premium segment as GMC retiring Buick brand. Move those models that will have success under GMC such as the Electra, National, etc. Those models that would still drive sales.
