Another GM vehicle would be what I was suggesting. Something on a similar platform.

They said on the local news tonight that they are going to lay off 150-180 workers when they start back up in November.

I should probably know this -- but how many people actually work there? what percentage is that? It sounds high...

Yea, I just found this from the chicago tribune: "The H2 plant employs about 600, down from its peak of about 1,000 a few years ago. "

FWIW : Believe they were referring only to the hourly (UAW) workforce. As I recall the high water mark for ALL AMG H2 Plant employees (salary + hourly) was 1170 back in mid-2002. That figure does not include rent-a-people and GM paid personnel assigned to the H2 Plant.

I imagine, if built HD enough, there would be a ton of these being used for towing large trailers and pehaps smaller goosenecks. The horse show crowd would really buy them! They spend A LOT on trucks.

Can you just shut the fuck up? Just stop. Stop making comments. Everytime you post I'm amazed at the depths of ignorance you are willing to display for no apparent reason.

A freaking lifted truck is not made to tow trailer. Do you know what lifted means? wait.... are you familiar with what a truck is?

GREAT IDEA!

Now let's think about this ...what GM vehicle would require the least Plant re-tooling?

Ahhhh ... got it ...the GM TAHOE would be the perfect vehicle!

And only minor changes needed on the main gate sign; take down M E R and put up H O E and presto, there's the HUM-HOE Plant!
