So the only buying criteria for a car now is if it runs and lasts 100k miles?

The big 3 have been out of touch with what American consumers actually want for a while now. Yes they make some great cars but they’ve made a lot more crap ones.

Not enough innovation, underestimating the competition, and letting the financial division get ahead of their vehicle design division pretty much sums it up their failure.

If someone is spending that much money on a car, probably the 2nd most expensive purchase they’ll ever make, they expect a lot more than just the minimum.

Blindly supporting a flawed system is a sure fire way to make things go from bad to worse. They American auto industry needs to go back to what made them successful in the first place and stop thinking about short term profits.
