You know guys, one thing I like about economics and the free market system. Supply and demand. If Ford and GM were making a product that everyone wanted, they would buy it. If the Japs are outselling US stuff in America....it's because that's what people want. Nobody holds a gun to your head and says...By a KIA! Now, my truck is American, Dodge, (the company that keeps turning a profit when Ford and Chevy are in trouble), and why aren't they laying off and closing plants???? Suppy and demand. They are putting out a product people want to buy. Look at GM's GTO. For less money you could get a 300 SRT 8 that would blow it's doors off and it's a luxury vehicle. What's Ford got...well the new 500 and some other thing that replaced the Taurus. Wow.....seeing many of those going down the highway? Nope. Same same GM and their line of auto's. I don't feel sorry for any of them. Make what people want and they will buy it. You don't, you lose.
