Could've been the Ford Wayne plant, too.

UK past = US future
So many things need to change in the American auto industry it isn't even remotely funny.

GM confirms Pontiac job cuts
Flint builds the heavy duty trucks, not Pontiac.

Multilinguists... Ayudame! Aiutammi! Aidez-moi!
I took some German in high school, though I don't remember hardly any of it anymore.

Volkswagen may leave United States
Who cares? Let 'em leave, it'll at least loosen up the market giving the Big Three some room to breathe. Besides, Volkswagon hasn't built anything in the United States for twenty years. Even Subaru had the common decency to build a factory and keep it open in this country.

1983 Pontiac 6000 LE....DIESEL!
Ugh... God I hate cars from the 80s...and I've got a special grudge against 6000s because I remember how big a piece of $h! my dad's was.

2009 Jeep JT Concept in depth
I like Jeeps, and I think this would do really well.

Buick Bringing Brown Back
I do like the brown on the Enclave...but I can only really see that color working out well for Buick. Brown Caddys I don't think would be nearly as classy.

GM's V2V allows cars to talk to each other
I can't think of a feature I would possibly use less. I could do without, what could easily turn into, another computer-related dependancy in my cars.

Spotted New Challenger Today
I gotta start hanging out in Auburn Hills more often. Its only like a 35 minute drive for me, too.

Sticker Shock
Buick's turning back into a more deluxe brand..."Joe Sixpack" is definitely not their target.

Stupid PLaystation
Eh...PS2s always were fragile and riddled with problems, we had problems aplenty with ours. I think I'm about done with Sony anyway. All the Sony products we've owned always wind up breaking and sucking.

Challenger vs. Mustang vs. Camaro
These three are a toss up for me. I am considering the Camaro and Challenger more than the Mustang because Mustangs are such a common sight, but always in the back of my mind I realize that the Mustang is built in America, whereas the Camaro and Challenger will not be...that's right, Big Three, some of us still take that into consideration. I'm really leaning towards the Camaro now since I saw the convertible and found out how expensive even the base model Challengers are going to be, but I'm keeping an open mind on all three until they're all out and I have a chance to test drive them.

Dodge's Chinese subcompact to cost ~$10k
I was referring more to the subcompacts.

Dodge's Chinese subcompact to cost ~$10k
Subcompact...my bad. But you're probably right, it'd be much easier to import the cheap crap from China...but, even though I know cars have come a long way since this, if Henry Ford could succeed in slashing the cost of the Model T time and time again (I know, old reference), Chrysler could build its own stuff profitably if it tried hard enough.

Gas Prices should start droping soon....
Yeah, I sure hope big oil cuts us a break soon. $45 every week to fill up my tank is getting pretty damn expensive for me.

Honda sued over gas mileage clames
32 mpg combined? In a hybrid? Get the f@#k out of my country, Honda.
-
Dodge's Chinese subcompact to cost ~$10k
God, Chrysler...is it really that much of a chore to build your OWN compacts? I don't buy "made in China" if I can help it, so if I feel the pressing need to get a compact, it sure as hell won't be this one.

interesting
That's quite a fine job.

Al Gore's son pulled over doing 100mph in a Prius...
You can get a Prius to 100? I guess you do learn something new every day.

Saab 9-5 renderings
Am I going crazy or does this Saab actually look good?

June 2007: Toyota Motor Corporation
Its never a good thing when people get put out of business like that. Granted, GM does need to trim its dealers, but it doesn't make it easy for the folks who work there.

Next Durango to ride on JGC unibody
Huh. That's weird. What the hell did you have? All the Michigan-built vehicles my family, or even anyone we know, have been just as good as those built elsewhere.
-
Next Durango to ride on JGC unibody
Nope, I just like seeing the Detroit automakers invest in Michigan as opposed to leaving it.
