    What’s good for GM is still good for America: A swift kick in the @#$ and some common sense knocked into it. Both need it.

    A car company that focuses nearly exclusively on one profitable fad (wastefully large trucks and SUVs), and then fails to quickly adjust it’s product line when the fad ends is destined to fail. GM has hemorrhaged cash for several years now, and it STILL hasn’t marketed very many of the fuel efficient vehicles that are now popular. Take the hint, GM.

    Similarly, a country whose citizenry purchase nearly exclusively cheap foreign goods to the detriment of manufacturing jobs at home is destined to see its own economy crash. The people who lost their jobs to China can’t purchase as many goods or services. Those shops & manufacturers react by cutting their work force. Those displaced workers have to cut back on purchases…. it’s a vicious cycle that needs to end. Both manufacturers who move jobs overseas AND consumers who happily buy foreign made goods share the blame.

    Interestingly, the Corvette is one of the HIGHEST mileage cars they make. Performance and fun don’t mean extravagance. Building big overweight tanks for the road does.

    I see the Chinese are buying Hummer. What’s up with that?

    Looks like Sack was using some software for the 3D look…. don’t like it, his art is normally top notch… this sucks though.

    But the play on evolution is funny to me at least…biologists can have very simple senses of humor at times.

    And the award for completely missing or ignoring the point in his or her snide remarks goes to……. ANandy!

    Andy, you’re harming the troops with all your unpatriotic criticisms of the President during a time of war. That makes you a traitor in league with the terrorists. You are either with us or against us.

    What GM, Ford, and Chrysler need is to develop their creativity. The Society of Automotive Engineers was warned back in the early 1970’s by MMY that if they did develop their creativity they would continue to rule the auto industry but if they didn’t, in 10 years they would become second rate. They didn’t take the warning seriously and the prediction played out.
