Re: H2 Plant Layoffs Looming?
Another GM vehicle would be what I was suggesting. Something on a similar platform.

Re: H2 Plant Layoffs Looming?
They said on the local news tonight that they are going to lay off 150-180 workers when they start back up in November.

Re: H2 Plant Layoffs Looming?
I should probably know this -- but how many people actually work there? what percentage is that? It sounds high...

Re: H2 Plant Layoffs Looming?
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.

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!
