"New" General Motors is starting to operate a little like its old pre-bankruptcy self of about 15 years ago. Just look at GMC, a brand that currently sells a battery-electric truck and SUV under the Hummer subbrand, one of four money-draining marques GM sold off or pulled the plug on at the start of the 2010s.
