I am a ford guy because my dad was. but I do like GMC. I think they look better than the silverado's . I bought a fl150 in 2021 but i did almost buy a at4 1500. I was on the fence I ended up getting fords rapid red which is very similar to GMC's cayenne red tintcoat. but i really do like the sierra. i am just here watcing a cool vid no hate

I don’t care what the company is, it’s always fascinating to watch the whole process, even when you see it every day like me.

Inferiority complex!

I’m a Ford guy, but great to see American made trucks

No one is hating. It's just facts that American cars are usually on the top charts when it comes to recalls. And GM is the #1 in a decade span. And GM had so many lawsuits than any other And just because your vehicle has no problem don't justify it's built well. Maybe you just got lucky. At the end of the day quality control is never a priority for American cars. Its all about money(American greed).

Try working at a slaughterhouse trimming meat in a cooler all day. This job is luxurious by comparison. Thumbs up to the workers that take pride in their work - Vehicle manufacturing is important to the American economy.

It’s not as bad as it seems as long as you don’t have a team full of jerks.

And get a desk job? Exhilarating…

My father is retired from GM. I worked in the Lake Orion plant for a summer after high school. You have never in your life ever encountered a more spoiled, entitled, lazy bunch of people in my entire life ever since. Just being honest. we had a guy show up drunk every single day to drive a fork lift and no supervisors would say shit to him because it just meant union hassles. It was an endless list of laziness that I've never seen before in my 30 years since. If a supervisor asked ANYONE to do something the standard answer was "Go fuck yourself its not my job". After that summer I had a whole new outlook on "hard working autoworkers". I helped a guy catch up one time that was behind on his job and literally i though i was going to get beat up by other workers because "Thats not your job". It was the craziest shit I'd ever seen. Ive got 100 stories from that summer. We wont even begin with the massive amount of drinking and drug use on the job.

@@gearjammergamer8560 Toured the Corvette Factory in Bowling Green a few years back. *Everythig* is done to precision timing. Any slacker along the line stops the entire train. I'd never be able to tolerate that kind of work, but salute those that do. The unions have management teams in every division by the gonads. There was a plethora of cameras throughout the assembly lines too. Nobody goes untoticed. A balancing act between workers and management for sure.

A friend I know bought one recently. His truck was built in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦

You ever think about the innocent people of Flint, Michigan that GM helped POISON to make your wittle twuck?

You know GM also was in bed with the Nazis during WWII? They profited off supplying the Axis and Allies - GM won't hesitate to betray the USA for a buck.

@@USMCCombatVet4TastyCrayons lol WGAF 🤣🤣🤣

I love your story you came along ways. Did you ever thought you would see robots taken over like this?

@@TryRickPayton never of course. The auto workers today look like they don’t break a sweat. Another thing that was lousy even though it was quitting time if the line kept moving you had to stay till it stopped, and it happened every day. Good luck Rick!

What was it like working for a company that gained some of its prosperity from betraying allied nations and the war effort by selling to the enemy to make a quick buck? Were you still working at GM plants when GM sold out Flint, Michigan residents? GM, un-American since 1939.

@@USMCCombatVet4TastyCrayons I had just graduated high school. Went there to fill out application on a Thursday went for a physical the next day and started on a Monday. It was just a job and no I never met Roger Smith.

@Count Alucard I didn't actually assume you were part of the GM treason, it was just another opportune moment to put some facts out into the social media universe. Honestly, I am sure that back in your day, most Americans didn't have a clue what was going on in their own local businesses, let alone the treason of a corporate monster like GM.

A shame isn't it.. saddening..

I am almost 100,000 miles strong with my 2016 1500. Range AFM to deactivate the system.

My '16 LTZ 4X4 6.2 has 90K miles. Also a Fort Wayne truck. Fantastic truck; has everything I will ever need. $46K OTD. Beautiful styling. Hard to replace it with a $70K truck.

2014 silverado double cab 180k miles only thing that went wrong was the thermostat transmission still dynos same numbers as new maintenance schedule is key

O2 sensor at 77k. My Honda hasn't been replaced with over 150k miles

@@abrahamreyes3340 I have a 2014 gmc Sierra with 186,000 miles & it’s been solid & it’s paid for! 👍🏼

You would get another GMC? Even if you know that they betrayed the Allies and the United States by selling to the to both Axis and Allied nations? Even if you know that GM sold out the innocent U.S. civilians of Flint, Michigan? After all, they KNEW about the toxic water and kept quiet - in exchange for special favors and incentives to keep their plant operating in the region (like a custom treatment system to treat the poisoned water before it was used on their materials). My GMC is the LAST GM I will ever own and most of its parts aren't even GM anyway. Besides, as an experienced mech/tech with a degree in Automotive Technologies, I can say without hesitation that while loyalists and low-standard muricans may like newer GM trucks (most newer trucks aren't going to be problematic), but they are hardly well made or "quality" vehicles. He'll, even the once disgraced Dodge Ram has caught up to GM in build quality at this point- and both STILL languish behind Toyota in overall reliability and quality of materials/assembly. Anyway, enjoy your hitlermobiles.

I'm thinking about the 3.0 Duramax or the 6.4 , Not overly concerned about gas mileage , But if you don't mind me asking how many miles you have on the diesel and have you had any issues with it ? I've heard a few people have problems with them but I would Really like a Duramax Diesel. Duramax

@@affordableroofingpaving1336 i’ve only put 1000 miles on it with no problems

@@chriscraft6327 I have the 22 refreshed AT4 3.0 Duramax as well and just hit 2500mi. I will never again in my life own something as awesome as this beast. The fit and finish is second to none 👌🏼

@@diversitycandle5708 I agree 1000%

@@affordableroofingpaving1336 In August got my GMC 1500 3.0 and put over 4K on it. No mechanical issues. The infotainment system freezes sometimes. The Check Engine light will come on while in Regen about every 400-600 miles. I’ve seen no reduction in MPG or performance during Regen. The 3.0 gives LOTS of power and my MPG is in the 30’s. I really love this truck!

I have it's brother in the 2014 Sierra with 4.3. The only thing better would be a new version of the same truck. Love it.

It's hard to beat the ol 4.3 V6. You've got the newer 4 valve version of the engine. I've got a 2004 S10 with the L35 in it. Thing is more powerful than people give it credit for, and I'd be willing to say the Gen V engines only increase the capability of what the engine could do.

@@AirborneRenegade I'm not sure they have 4 valves, but I do know the block/heads are aluminum. I like the engine......and truck !

Same here with a 2015 V6 Silverado. No issues by far after a life of hauling and towing. Great truck👌🏼

Your GM may have been made here, but it has the blood of poisoned Flint, Michigan Americans AND the treasonous legacy of a greedy company that sold out the Allies by aiding the Axis forces in WWII. Profiting off selling to both sides.

I was in Deutschland in September-October of 2019 and did not see many pick-up trucks in that beautiful country. Not like you do here in the United States.

¿Son hermosas las fábricas ubicadas en Texas ؟

It seems suto manufacturers cracked the whip in the late 90s and saw results innthe mids 2000s. New robotics do the same thing exactly the same everytime with. O lunch breaks or hangovers or worker sabotage. Parts are much more exact so they fit right. Quality control techniques were imposed with statistical analysis to ensure a certain minimum of compliance.

Come back at 10 years.

Great warranty. But why did you needed 3 new engines? Sounds like the engine department was drunk assembling them. The best warranty is none you never had to use.

If I had 3 new engines I’d be selling that lemon

I have a 2014 Silverado which my son drives now, and it's the quietest vehicle i've ever purchased.

Top quality builds from that plant.

Hats off to the Japanese robots.

@@truthadvocacy 😅😂🤣

Oshawa,Ontario takes that award, sorry...

Oshawa was always GM’s best plant, which is why they opened it up again after foolishly shutting it down.

Mistakes happen with those laughter and happy faces. When deviation is high and waste is abundant, companies have to cut costs on safety to stay profitable. I'm sure you enjoy your Chevy Vega and Ford Pinto. Advanced robotic manufacturing is the future, and the laughter and happy faces are taking place inside engineering lounges and programming cafes.

@@clearcut6818 You're just anti human...Sad..:(

Most of the robots are in body and paint shop. The jobs they do would be brutal on humans these days. What welder is going to want to sit on a production line doing spot welds all day? What painter would want to sit in a booth painting cars all day at a rate that's needed for the demand of vehicles being ordered? It's just no practical having humans doing some of these jobs anymore. We are making 600 units per shift in the plant I work in. Robots create skilled trades jobs too that pay very good. The more robots, the more skilled trades. Plenty of jobs are still human jobs in final where a human touch is needed.

@@219jello You're right about those task but; assembly is done by robots too.... I know the Quality and quantity arguments... I just see it as Cold and sterile, the downfall and replacement of the common man...Robots are already building other robots...Careful what you wish for. The primary reason is we have been decimated as a society, murdered enmasse through, air, food, water and medicine...

@@godbluffvdgg robots can't repair other robots in the field. They would have to walk in with a toolbox over dozens of hazards. We don't use any robots in final, all done with humans. We have a horrible attendance track record at our plant. FMLA is abused too. Humans do it to themselves

Tell that to the people in Flint and Pontiac

Hey people in Flint and Pontiac! GM is the greatest manufacturer in the world! Howz that,? 🙂

@@h8troodoh it was a lot better before they left. Ghost town now

yeah, that's why they CLOSED 5 factorys in North america..and VW runs the largest car factory in North America Puebla Mexico, and the world's largest in Wolfsburg germany..and sell almost 10 million vehicles a year, only toyota and VW are in the same league, GM Ford all others follow. VW is building anotehr $2 BILLION factory in SC..to make it's EV Scout SUV, from it's Navistar truck div. Yes VW owns International Harvester, MAN and Scannia trucks, GM doesn't make trucks, either

biggest truck maker in the world is.Daimler Benz

Oh snap! That is so funny I was thinking the same thing a video would be cool! Whats another $1k when your spending $75k for a truck😂

Do they still offer that for the Corvette where you get to watch it being built and help on some things? I'm sure it's an expensive experience, but I'm sure it's amazing to see.

As far as I know they still offer that for the Corvette

I feel like my 2019 sierra is better than older ones when it comes to rust on the cab and box, but I don’t believe the frames have improved much

I still don't know why they don't use more Aluminum body parts. So many trucks die due to the salt.

And die at 50 of chemical poisoning.

And 6.2L V8

Cool story bro
