HOW COME TOYOTA, NISSAN, HONDA, MERCEDES, BMW, KIA, AND THE REST OF THE FOREIGN CAR MAKERS DONT NEED IT????? apparently they must be doing something RIGHT to not need bailout $$$$$

Replies RRS360 Posted at 3:32 pm on Feb. 18, 2009 First of all it isn't a "Big 3" bailout because only GM and Chrysler actually took out a loan. Ford saw the light three years ago and slowed production of their suvs and cancelled the Excusion to have some cash reserve left over. But as far as Gm and Chrysler, that mismanagement all of the way. Putting too much money into suv production when they should have focused on making high quality, fuel efficent cars. The new Ford cars are getting high reviews and the 2010 Taurus looks awesome and nothing like its rental elder version. The new Fusion hybrid will get an average of 41 mpg, and that is better than the Camry hybrid. Hopefully they can turn it all around, because I'd hate to see all of those jobs lost. shadowpool Posted at 3:33 pm on Nov. 19, 2008 GM, in particular, has way too many employees that are paid too highly with benefits/retirement packages that are too expensive, they have too many dealerships, and they make too many different cars/trucks that no one is buying.  Demand in the US has been shifting towards smaller more fuel efficient cars made by other companies, and right now no one has the money or credit to buy cars (or just about anything else). Out of GM, Ford, and Chrysler, I'll bet that at least two of them go bankrupt.  These companies are burning through too much cash for a bailout to save them.  They really need to restructure, regroup, get rid of their unions, and get back to the drawing board--bankruptcy.  They might have better luck selling fast food. studmuffn Posted at 3:08 pm on Nov. 19, 2008 Quote: from IMPALA at 6:06 pm on Nov. 19, 2008 http://golivewire.com/forums/peer-yyieisi-support-a.html Guess you don't hang out in auto forum huh ? http://golivewire.com/forums/peer-yyioaab-support-a.html What are you trying to prove idiot?

That's why the CTS-V outpaces Audis and BMWs in road courses, right ? studmuffn Posted at 2:48 pm on Nov. 19, 2008 Quote: from Tubbz at 5:47 pm on Nov. 19, 2008 Quote: from studmuffn at 10:46 pm on Nov. 19, 2008 Quote: from jesus66 at 5:45 pm on Nov. 19, 2008 German's are the best for cars.    Someone with knowledge. I'd agree with that to an extent. I think when it comes to the top performance cars, the italians just have it. Italians take the cake for Exotic cars. But a good BMW can definitely race a Ferrari.
