Made in Normal, Illinois. Wonder if it's the old FCA plant there? I like it actually. 61 isn't bad fully loaded. I'd jump on one for the wife to go grocery shopping in.
I see GM is really downsizing, not just the Canadian plant but Lordstown and a few others to gear up fpr electric vehicles because the market for cars (like the Curze that is mad at Lordstown has fallen way off. SUV's, pickup trucks and EV's are what the automaker is looking at now. Same with Ford and I expect FCA to follow.
I see the UAW is screaming bloody murder.
My cousin has a Tesla X SUV and it's super nice and goes like a scalded dog plus with the X, you get lifetime charging at any Tesla Supercharging station. We have one just south of us. Don't particularly like the price tag (150 grand) but for those upwardly mobile folks like him, it's doable.
I went for a ride in it and a 5.0 mustang pulled up next to us at the light and the Tesla blew it's doors off and never even spun the wheels. Amazing acceleration.
