True. And don't underestimate the damage the UAW as done to the competitiveness of the big 3 over the years. The last I checked Toyota is still none-union in the US.People want cars assembled in developed countries.
That's exactly what it is.I think Toyota builds better quality vehicles than GM does overall but if quality was the determining factor in sales then they would have surpassed them a long time ago. This really just seems like Toyota managed their supply chain better than GM did.
I know several people who wanted high end trucks and SUV’s but nothing to be found in the right configurations and price - so yeah the chip thing was a big deal at the worst of times …No car company has truck sales like the domestic sales. Toyota only sells about 1/5 the trucks as GM and 1/8 of Ford.

Imagine how much more money could be spent on product without the additional legacy costs due to the union.
This isn't going to be an anti-union rant, but it's something Toyota doesn't have to deal with and makes them more competitiv
Poor management and business practices will do that.Is anyone surprised? Really. Thought it would have happened sooner. How far the once mighty BIg Three have fallen the last several years........
Some of the completely bone headed engineering hasnt helped either.Poor management and business practices will do that.

Mopar has been married more times than Liz Taylor wasThe biggest clue is that the Big Three have been reduced to the Big Two. Stellantis doesn’t qualify anymore.
Not enough CokeThis thread is like a Scotty Kilmer echo chamber.
I have the same truck that I bought new and I have to say I agree with you. The refinement on a $54,000 (MSRP) vehicle is pitiful.Agreed. I always assumed it was Toyota. And after owning a GM product for two years (2018 Silverado bought new), I’ll never buy another again.
They will be going the way of Nissan then. Target production of cheap 30k mile lifespan vehicles to get through the rental period.GM had lost nearly every segment lead to this or that competitor, but made up tremendous ground with rental fleets.
