not sure why it matters , since the Chevy is the same vehicle , and if it doesn’t make them money it’s costing rhem money . Just like the lightning .

My previous truck was a 2006 Honda Ridgeline. My Honda service advisor told me they have too many problems with the Prologue. Mostly suspension issues. The mistake was using the Chevy chassis.

I have a neighbor that has one and his issue has been with driveline clunking that is apparently a well-known issue. I have a Blazer EV and the chassis seems fine to me, so it may be something Honda did in "tuning" it for the "Honda" experience?

I still won't trust GM. Maybe if they bring back Saturn? Anyways, their decision to remove Apple Car Play and Android Auto may lose them enough business that they need another bailout. Ford did such a good job on their ev lineup that I believe many people were waiting for the second Gen Lightning to see the bugs removed. How Ford abandoned such a great truck is beyond me. I hope the government let's them fail this time so the startups will have a better chance to flourish.

Ditto! I bought my wife a 2025 Blazer RS EV with 3K miles at half of the price of a new one and she absolutely loves it and it drives like a dream 10K miles later... just saying..

All the Japanese automakers are facing intense competition form China in the EV space.

The article was behind a firewall so no idea what it said.
