Daughter Of Resigned GM CEO Attacks New GM CEO On Facebook

Sarah Henderson, daughter of Fritz Henderson, the just-resigned-minutes-ago GM CEO, posted some choice words about Ed Whitacre, the random white guy taking her dad’s place at the top of the just-emerged-from-bankruptcy automaker, on the automaker’s public Facebook page!

Now don’t get us wrong — we feel for Sarah, but when you pop them up in public in a place like GM’s public page, well, all bets are off. Plus, comments like Ed Whitacre being “selfish” help us to understand the new interim CEO just a little bit more. Here’s the full text:

“HE FU#%ING GOT ASKED TO STEP DOWN ALL OF YOU FU#%ING IDIOTS. IM FRITZ’S %UCKING DAUGHTER, AND HE DID NOT F@CKI&G RESIGN.

A social media tool and soon-to-be mobile app, the trail tracker allows you to find and upload info on trails across the United States. And it isn’t just for wild, rocky hellholes either (that’s the 4Runner on the Rubicon Trail above) — you can upload and find scenic drives and fire roads that lead to great surfing spots.

If you want the world to know what you did when you got there — or how you manged to get out — you can post photos and video to the site, as well as upload GPS data. The Trail tracker website is live now, with about 29 trails nationwide at the time of this writing. It’s intriguing that one of the vehicles that led SUVs out of the wilds and into suburbia is now playing the Pied Piper to lure folks back into the woods. At least now maybe we’ll get to see what it’s really got
