First the "lightweight frame" and now the 2015 Corvette C7 Z06 "lighter 8 speed automatic transmission"- Tadge Juechter continues to mislead the buyers

+Tadge Juechter is a worthy successor to Billy Mays, spending his time baiting potential customers and pouring them plenty of +General Motors kool aid to assure they cannot think straight before pulling the trigger and signing on the dotted line, relieving themselves of their bank account balance and gaining a Juechter turd on four wheels in return.

Yes, just like with the "light weight frame" bullshit from the past, Juechter has done it again, assisted as usual by the GM marketing department in lieu some actual engineers ( real ones, not like his own brand of bullshit engineering).

When Juechter made a claim regarding light frame, it led everyone interested into believing that the newest Corvette will be lighter as well (why would anyone think anything else?).  Of course, the Stingray became a real porker in reality, outweighing its steel framed predecessor by over 200 pounds, which alone should get Juechter fired and then properly sued for committing marketing fraud.

Since Juechter somehow still has his job and idiots devoid of even a trace of intelligence continue to buy the insult to reliability and quality control called Stingray and better yet, already line up to hand off even more money for the upcoming C7 Z06, the bullshit continues.

The new 8-speed automatic transmission is the next step in Juechter's bullshit Corvette show.

As with the frame, Juechter already made sure that the transmission's weight is advertised as lighter than the 6-speed transmission it replaced.  So is the transmission really lighter?  Technically, it is but... in reality, it is not since due to overheating problems, it requires second cooler to be used when available on Corvette C7 Z06.  Thus, once again, Juechter creates not just misleading but fraudulent marketing claim baiting potential buyers and trying to cover up his engineering incompetence.

Shame on you Tadge for not obeying by ethical conduct expected from not just an engineer but someone with "normal" integrity.
