10 Cars That Sank DetroitThis was a thoughtful U.S. News & World Report article that clearly answers why Detroit automakers are where they are now. And, the basis for this is decades old. But, I wonder why they didn't bother to mention my dad's Chevy Vega? I have such a fond memory of it breaking down in the desert while we attempted to cross from L.A. to Las Vegas--in AUGUST!!!

No other business in America could have survived so long with such arrogance and ignorance walking the halls of its HQ. Oh, wait, the bankers are still in business, too.
ReplyDeleteOh, I so agree with that.
ReplyDeleteOh please, please, please let this recession shake some sense into us! I also want to pipe in and say the unions had a nice hand in this mess as well! If we could all not be so darn greedy!!
