It happened last week, during a WCIS report on a proposed project for an artificial lake on Lake Springfield in Illinois, U.S. One reporter and one cameraman were discussing the pros and cons of the project, as well as the divisive reactions it generated, while standing on the shore of the Spaulding Dam, when a GMC Sierra Denali casually rolled itself to its death.
You can see the now-viral video at the bottom of the page. As the truck is rolling out of view, Jakob Emerson, the reporter, is discussing the proposed project for an artificial lake and how the city believes it would come in handy during severe drought. Meanwhile, activists lament the damage the project would cause to wildlife.

Late last week, this rare 1987 Buick GNX found itself a new owner on Bring A Trailer, selling for $205,000. According to Fox Auto, that makes it the second most expensive to trade hands at an auction, after the last one ever made fetched $220,000 at Mecum Auctions in 2017. Prior to that, the second spot went to one that also sold on BAT, in 2019, for $200,000. It had a mere 8.5 miles (13.6 km) on the clock.
This one was practically brand new as well. With just 262 miles (422 km) on the odometer, it still had its factory plastics on the seats, carpets, and door panels. The original window sticker (reading a grand total of $29,290) was still on the passenger side window, and everything else was in proper working order. It was sold by a dealer in Florida, which had acquired it from the original owner, based in New Jersey. Hopefully, the third owner will take advantage of such a competent and impressive machine.
