Are you including the profits GM dealerships make on undercoating, transmission fluid flushes at 30k miles in those numbers?

No - those are on the books of GM dealerships and don't impact GM's financials whatsoever.

I see, sounds like GM's financials are in good shape. I hope that helps them in 14 years when they are no longer making ICE cars that those dealerships make all their profits off of from maintenance.

Yeah there's no doubt they're in for a really big disruption - and I think dealers are just about the least sympathetic "businesspeople" in America so I won't mourn their loss.
