Hi Scott,
Not offensive, just out of date for the next generation of GMC owners coming along from my POV. I don’t think our kids and grand kids find cute the same names we did/do. Ours is one of the few special interest vehicle groups that is undergoing a successful generational change in ownership and I just think we all would be well served to honor that and change what we need to change to match. It is not a big deal, but in marketing anything sometimes it is the little things that count.
Thanks for the kind words! Cheers,
Jerry

Jerry,
lm a little surprised at your response. The black list is non judgemental of anyone, just in recognition of the person who had the idea of putting it
together.
i love the info that you have for our community. And no matter what, I will always consider you one of our more respected members. But please, tell me
why the phrase "Black List" is so offensive. Just a observation, Respectfully, Scott Nutter

Like it or not, "blacklist" has a deserved negative connotation.
Perception becomes reality.
