I heard that as well. Just in case supply for the Cobalt is short, and Lordstown can't keep up... But, I also heard that production was going to be moved to a plant in Mexico... Now that I didn't want to hear...

Hey I didn't mean that to discriminate against our Hispanic neighbors, because I actually believe that it's bullshit that they work just as hard, if not harder than American workers and don't get paid squat... But I also think it's bullshit that that will mean more American jobs being out-sourced, which also isn't right, but GM is pretty desperate and I understand what they gotta do...

Again just something I heard, and have no idea if it's true or not...

They aren't built in mexico if they were you would see that in the vin. As for the michigan plant the 08s with the batch hold were sent there to get fixed. GM has already renewed lordstown plant contract.

Yes because thanks to the auto workers unions killing GM. There killing the airline industry also because people make way to much money for what they do.

I never said that any of them are built in Mexico... I said that I heard that production may possibly get moved to a plant in Mexico... Many of the components are actually assembled in Mexico already just not the car... I just heard it was a possibility...
