Thanks Dick.

Is steel really that expensive GM? Don’t they know they can reduce the weight much more by just not including that shit nobody bothers to use anyway?

Comes with the powered tailgate package.

Who knew

I’m going to find one, sit on it for 5 years or so till the plastic gets dried out and brittle then use it and accidentally get injured. $$$$$

not surprised at all
gm went to plastic clutch pedals in the 99+ trucks

Not like they were the only ones.
Dodge had them too.

 

[OutlawRider]

Didn’t I see a post of dodge having plastic control arms? It may have been an AI pic

GM has made plastic cars sine 1953, why not a jack?

 

[MONSTERMUDDER]

They'll just use this as an excuse to further the trend of not including a spare tire...

 

[Void_of_Light]

I’m assuming this was for cost savings while they sold shit commuter cars for $45k.

but you'll get some run flats that ride like shit and some tire slime with a shitty little air compressor.

We'll call it the "mobility kit"

Hell, the wife's car didn't get run flats, just a jack, pump. and slime.

Do new cars that come with an inflator even include a jack?

Wife's Jeep Cherokee has no jack or spare

 

[subybaja]

Non-car buddy recently gave me a 12v inflator. It had a can of Slime built into it, so you inflate and glop at the same time. Weird.

 

[clodhopper]

Outside of people like us and the mexican community, who actually changes tires anymore? Certainly not someone who drives an Encore.

Delete the jack and just leave an AAA business card in there.

 

[Gdogg]

I better not tell my Wife about those jacks, she'll get me one for my Birthday.

probably more rigid than the sheetmetal ones of that style that were in s-10s

There may not even be a jack,

I was gonna say, I'm surprised they even come with a jack and a spare.

Sheit, Volvo has had plastic clutch pedals since the mid 80’s lol

 

[KarlVP]

The screw "bottle" jack that came with my 2003 duraturd saved my bacon many times. Not necessarily used as intended but it worked every time.
