Inside Oldsmobile's Lansing Factory: The Plant That GM Chose to Destroy

In 1976, Oldsmobile sold over one million cars in a single year. By 2004, it sold none — and the workers who built the last one signed their names on its body before watching it roll out the factory doors forever. Oldsmobile was the oldest car brand in America. It invented the automatic transmission. It put the first airbags in a production car. It inspired one of the earliest rock 'n roll songs ever recorded. And General Motors — the corporation that owned it for nearly a century — quietly dismantled it from the inside, one cost-cutting decision at a time. This is the story of the Chevymobile scandal, the diesel engine disaster, the engineer who told the truth and was forced into early retirement, and the 107-year legacy that ended with a marker and a signature on a cherry-red sedan. Some brands die. Others are killed. This one was killed by the company that was supposed to protect it. If this story stayed with you — subscribe.
