This, unlike GM that insisted on crushing all but two of them, cars that were popular beyond all belief and with customers fighting to keep them. Nice going GM, you people are the greatest,, killing off a product that your customers loved and even having to steal them back from customers that refused to surrender.

I thought for sure that the electric trucks were 98 and 99 years. And all the pictures of the EVs I have seen had the tach type cluster (with different gauges obviously)
Weird thing for me, running the VIN says very little and doesn't mention it being electric.
