Supplier Believes Lightweight Steel Has A Place In Light-Duty Pickups

Though Ford is going all in on aluminum for its upcoming F-150, with General Motors following suit soon after, one supplier believes lightweight steel can be just as effective as the alloy best known for holding beer and keeping turkeys juicy in the oven.

Oberkanone GM will have 30 EV models by 2025. Over 40% of GM sales will be EV by 2025.quote - Marry Barra circa 2020Including 4 Chevy EV, 2 Buick EV, and 4 Cadillac EV.
Dwford There's plenty of time between now and 2030-35 to design and sell through a whole new generation of ICE vehicles, if not 2 generations. Chevy seems to be on a dual track plan with ICE and EV versions of the Equinox and Blazer nameplates. No reason Cadillac can't do something similar.

TheMrFreeze The wife unit and I refuse to buy a white/black/grey/silver car...life's too short for boring. As it happens we both drive orange cars right now but slightly different shades. Total coincidence, just happened that the used cars we found that met our requirements (ie: manual trans and at least some amount of character) both happened to be orange. My previous daily driver was orange as well, again total coincidence...they just seem to find us I guess...
