Ford lays off 25,000 - President will say all is rosy.

The State of the Union speech is soon. Bet 'ya Bush says to Ford workers everything is looking up thanks to his high class leadership.

Many fail to realize that the war with Japan is not yet over, just the battles have ended. The war has now been moved to American soil, the war is no longer about Japanese fighting for Japanese, but also Americans fighting for Japanese in an effort to destroy American big business thus destroying the lively hoods of many Americans which has numerous effects such as destroy families as well as other destructions. So the war aint over just the enemy has changed.

One may argue Japanese cars are somewhat better than American cars in general, but when it comes to light trucks and SUVs the domestics are light years ahead of the import brands. The top three selling vehicles in the US are trucks and they are built by GM, Ford and Chrysler. Everything else is an also ran, including the number one car, the Camry at a distant fourth place in total sales in the US. The top selling full size, mid size and small SUVs are also built by GM and Ford. No import brand even comes close. If there is one thing that speaks to what buyers believe is the beat value for their money it is the total number of buyer willing to plunk down their money for a vehicle. The Camry is the number one selling car for a reason just as the F150 in the number one selling vehicle.

I love my new Vette, so I can't talk too much shit, but I would take a Tacoma or 4Runner over any light truck/SUV from GM or Ford. Japs are much more refined and way ahead of American trucks/Suvs

Thats because the Japanese is so much smarter than the white man.

I guess that explains why GM and Ford sell at least five times as many trucks and SUVs as ANY of the imports. LOL

But they are selling fewer and fewer of these antique hogs with each passing month. GM & Ford will sell their way into bankruptcy with such outdated designs. Happy Bankruptcy!
