Imagine GM's cost on the steel for the exhaust. A good percentage of every dollar of that goes towards pensions -- a problem GM ran into because they were taking the float from the pension and using that as profit, so, investments got riskier.

At least you're driving a GM as a loaner. Their 2nd highest profit vehicle in their fleet.

As for me, plenty of work and staging to test today. Looks nice outside. If I had an outdoor weather station and my webcam working, I could really enjoy the outdoors.
