It's how our canon of scripture was decided. Didn't turn out too bad. Just hope there are more of the former. (Vocal Smart)

As for the car industry, there are dark times ahead and people that work for GM will be able to do little about the eventual nationalism of the auto industry since the alternative if they can't meet the new Government CAFE standards would be that GM would have to scrap the Camaro rear wheel drive platform altogether and the overall final price of a new corvette's would be priced higher than it is now..The dealers would be taken over by the Government and perhaps be regulated or handled in a CarMax like fashion. I'm sure dealerships will love that..No more markups because the price would be fixed. Some people would like that however the Government would make the smaller more fuel efficient vehicles the affordable ones while the muscle cars would become extinct.. We shall see what happens, I for one hope I am wrong about this and somehow capitalism continues to be the ideology American auto industry follows..But my hopes are dimming the more and more bailouts with pre-conditions keep getting handed out..
We'll just have to get ours before the "Change"
