General Motors Fun Facts:
- From Horse Power to . . . Horse Power! General Motors was founded by William C. Durant in 1908. Starting Capital: $2,000. Durant was the owner of Durant-Dort Carriage Company, the largest U.S. carriage-manufacturer (producing over 100,000 horse-drawn carriages per year).
- Durant increased the GM brand by purchasing the Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile and and Oakland companies (Oakland became Pontiac).
Control Issues: Durant lost control of General Motors after two years, regained control six years after that - and then lost the company for good four years later. GM is now a publicly traded company (with over 610,500,000 shares outstanding).- The Lunar Rover was manufactured by GM (and first used for the Apollo 15 mission).
- GM cars and trucks are the top-selling foreign-made vehicles in China (they just love Buicks!).
