Exactly. But, WHY are Americans driving non-GM, non-Ford, non-Chrysler vehicles? Apparently, the other companies are offering something that the Big 3 refuse to develop and/or implement. I've only owned domestics (7 vehicles) and my dad has owned a mix and currently owns a C6. I want to see the automakers survive, but I do not see that happening without the help and protection Chapter 11 provides. In a free-market economy, it looks like the majority of consumers have spoken. It's hard to save a sinking ship (or ships) when no one pays attention to the alarm bells until it's much too late.
