Guys this is a PR masterclass.
You take the most viral moment of July 2025 and, instead of disaster control, make light of the situation and create the ultimate brand awareness.
Bravo.

- Wife is out of town. On Dad duty. Took boys to pumpkin patch for 3 hours. Then stickers. Then play-doh. Then hot dogs. Annnnnd I’m spent by 2 pm. Kudos to the stay-at-home moms out there. This is ruthless work.
- Been living with the new Lexus GX550 since trading in our cursed Tahoe for a few months now. Takeaway: American automakers have a big problem on their hands. The Lexus is faster. Better looking. Smoother ride. More capable off-road. Better sound system. Better tech. Better
- Replying to @robbiehendricksI see people I know posting in despair about a “coup”. I’m trying to understand what they’re reading or how they’re filtering information to come to that conclusion. I’m thrilled that billions in waste is being exposed. Is it simply that anything Trump adjacent is auto-rage?
- Replying to @robbiehendricksLook, I wholly understand that Trump/Musk are not some people’s favorite characters. I get and respect it. But looking objectively at the facts, why are we outraged about anything other than the ridiculous waste and fraudulent use of our taxpayer dollars? Isn’t that story #1?

- Replying to @robbiehendricksReminder - this was a 2023 Tahoe with 15,000 miles. Not some 2007 Tahoe with 790,000 miles that ran forever on oil changes. @GM has a crisis on their hands.
- Final update on my Tahoe 6.2L engine failure saga: So @GM has declined to help me with my twice-failed 6.2L Tahoe. Engine blew on the highway the first time. Stranded w/ my wife and kids. Complete engine failure at 20k miles on a 2023. Got truck back after 7 weeks. Then brand
- Replying to @robbiehendricks and @GMIt took 8 days for the new engine to shut down. 8 days.
- Replying to @robbiehendricksForgive the rant, but when the safety of my wife and kids is involved you’re going to get an angry redhead dude.
- Replying to @unusual_whalesSo well deserved. They really are running a tight ship, always on budget, and no insider trading to speak of.
- Replying to @unusual_whalesI wonder how many of our politicians could be charged with something similar at any given time.
