And no real choice.<BR/><BR/>I cannot buy a decent, good gas mileage car from the big 3. And the promise of the Volt by 2010 is too late...GM won't exist by then. I mean if Toyota can have a Prius out for 5 fricken years, GM can get the volt out this year.<BR/><BR/>But then, they were more concerned swith trucks and SUVs...Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941875334878452635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9560953.post-35085398215676663452008-11-13T16:57:00.000-05:002008-11-13T16:57:00.000-05:00As someone that has only owned GM cars, I disagree...As someone that has only owned GM cars, I disagree that they make "shitty, shitty" products (explain Hyundai's success then, for a long time Hyundai's cars were worse than GM). To re-work your statement GM is going under from high labour costs and over-capacity. GM has always been producing more cars than it can sell.<BR/><BR/>They never adjusted to increased competition either. So between that and dropping overall demand, they're screwed.<BR/><BR/>Toyota, Honda, Nissan etc. are feeling the pain too. Their sales are dropping off big team as well. The lack of unions in their plants might be their saving grace, for now.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, you are right. A bailout isn't going to stop shit. Either GM, Chrylser, and Ford figure a way out of this mess or they don't. Bailouts will only delay the inevitable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
