Thanks for posting.
GM really seems to be taking up the torch, aren't they...

Smart move.

if people want to really stop the Amerian auto industrie from going under they need to email their congree person, & tell them to VOTE Yes on the bill that will allow the government to give the auto industry money to keep them up & running until march of next year.

We need to stop depending on Not only foreign oil but foreign industries all together.

Need to start stepping up to the plate & start buying american MADE stuff.

Let them fail and deal with the consequences. Yes, there will be some pain and suffering if it happens, but in the long run, we will be much better off as a country.

Bwhahhahha! Do you really think that someone else would not step in and produce an American-made automobile? Really? You know, GM, Ford and Chrysler are not the only Amercan car companies. They just happen to be the largest.

(BTW, the Civic IS a Honda.)

Ok start naming companies that are NOT owned or partily owned by the big 3 that makes cars based out of The US.

Sure, let them fail.

If GM goes down, so does Ford. If Ford goes down, so does Chrysler. If all three go down, then there goes the suppliers...

Have fun without parts for your Mustang...

GM sold Lotus in 1993.

And the Carbon E7 is a new police cruiser that was just designed...and it's gaining a lot of attention.
