PissTaker: I disagree. An American family will go hungry tonight because *you* chose to buy a stupid import. That’s how I see it. Support your country, God damn it, or go back to Europe/Japan!

You knobjockey 1c3d0g you should buy the best product you can afford. If That is American, Great, but propping up industries that refuse to make decent product because some knob will buy it just because it’s AMerican benefits nobody

The American Revolution may have to retreat with their tails wound tightly between their legs. Nobody is convinced that things over there have improved . One quarters worth of sales without losing their shirt does not mean GM is returning from the grave. 3+ decades worth of mediocrity and garbage will do that to you though

You forgot Japanese loving-ass as well. Is it the rest of the world’s fault that the Americans can’t make a good car?

Again, let’s spin everything to be as negative as possible. Last month’s headline was: Ford is going down as F-series posts massive 45% percent loss. Well, no crap. They sold 125,000 in July 2005 in the midst of employee pricing, but those caveats were found hidden at the bottom of the article. The truth was that profit building retail sales in July for the big three were solid.

So, now comes August. Instead of noting that Chrysler and Ford still had employee discount programs and inventory (unlike the depleted GM at that point), they try to spin it as August was a weak month last year (it wasn’t) and that this month is going to be some great disappointment (only as much as any other month, really, but should show decent retail sales again).

Honestly, I have yet to see really good journalism about the entire set of problems facing the Detroit 3 and instead we get some crap sensationalism thrown together to get web hits and paper sales. *sigh*

Since ONLY GM, Ford, and DCX sales were affected… all the displaced peoples still went out and bought their foreign cars…

LLN, please try to be less transparent with your bias.

I’ll start being loyal to American car makers when they start being loyal to America and American suppliers.
