I hope they put the 3.8 in it. Seriously, it is awesome that Ford and GM are making ventilators.

And most of those ventilators will sit and rot or get sold to other countries.

And they’ll die just as soon as the factory warranty expires then a new GM will be built to protect from lawsuits.

If you have nothing respectable to say don’t say anything, is the company we’re you work building anything to keep Americans alive. At least they are stepping in along with Ford again to help this country in their time of need again, and have the know how to mass produce them.

The filters on the ones the medical device company my step daughter works for last 2.5 years, but they recalibrate after the 2.5 yrs and do all the preventative maintenance on them for free. Thus why NY and CA have bought a ton from them.

Well stated!

And furthermore, who is going to use these ventilators?? Andrew Cuomo, Governor of New York cried about the lack of ventilators in the state, which was partially HIS fault, when the covid-19 crisis first hit. Then when the President got a number of them to NY, they sat unused, later sent to two other states......
