Rt.66
ParticipantIt may not be this year, or 5 years from now but at some point the masses will see the value in good American jobs that produce something. Today it is so very cool to say stuff like ”GM cars suck, you couldn’t give me one” Or “UAW workers are greedy and overpaid and make $70 an hour”. Of course both statements are absurd and those making them are dumb tools of corporate America and the elite.
All those people arguing against me on this GM post are hardly in the minority, nor are they in any way creative or original thinkers. Rather, they are just as Toyota and Nissan and the elite want them to be, parroting the anti-American drivel they have been trained to repeat with years of brainwashing in front of TV and Newspapers.
This FIRE economy is dead, forever. We will need to start making actual products again and somewhere along the line, those lemming-like thought patterns will grow to reflect this reality and the masses will again champion an American made product with the national pride it deserves. But like lemmings, most people won’t do it until they see the “cool” guy say it or the pretty MSM lady on TV say it. The reason is that things will get so bad in this country that the need to actually make tangible products will be staring us in the face so glaringly that even the MSM will pick up on it. Count on it!
GM builds good cars. Union jobs with good pay and benefits are good for the American worker. A company that provides good jobs and benefits for generation after generation of Americans (100 years folks) and has brought so much pleasure to people like me with great vehicles is to be applauded, not vilified.

ParticipantScarlett, sorry about the name confusion, that’s the first time I have ever seen another Scarlet on a forum.
Oh, and sorry I was mean to some of the people you like.
On your thread: Absolutely laughable. My god, are you people not paying attention to what’s going on in the world? San Diego must be an island, huh? $400k or $500k for a town-house will be so very ridiculed in 2010 and more so after that. Really though, that’s a good laugh. And all the folks making posts pretending to have some sort of relevant information regarding a glorified condo priced at half a million… Lambs to the slaughter.
Save yourself Scarlett…..keep waiting.

Participant[quote=Borat]The American carmakers made SUVs because STUPID AMERICANS bought them. They have the highest profit margin of any vehicle. They are just trucks with leather and a nav system and they were a king cash crop for many years. High gas prices finally convinced STUPID AMERICANS that driving them might not be such a great idea. The only thing I blame detroit for is for not looking far enough ahead and saving their $$$ for when the SUV gravy train stopped. GM is at least attempting to with the Volt but of course everyone here will say it is DOOMED.
Detroit can’t compete directly with Japan and Korea because if they try they will get their ass handed to them. The profit margins on your typical toyota or kia are much smaller; the Japanese and Koreans can do what they do in large part because their industry has been built with the help of their government over many decades. So to avoid competing directly, detroit builds many of their cars for the rental/leasing market rather than direct consumer. That’s why so many of their offerings seem uninspired; they’re going to be rentals for the most part.
The UAW and crooked leaders in detroit are a part of the problem sure but that’s not the whole story. Of course here on this website the socialism and union boogeymen are always at fault.
Back to sleep boys and girls. How are your beet farms coming? You’d better listen to old uncle Borat when he tells you you need to learn to grow and eat your own beets! They are better for you than mcdonalds. Besides you’re not going to be able to afford mcdonalds in a few years. Then you will all be clamoring for socialism and this board will be full of marxists.[/quote]
——————————-The only sensible response this forum can muster?
As I said before, I have had my ass handed to me on this topic many times before and this forum is the least creative in its anti-American parroting.
On the genious who used the Aztec for an example of bad American cars:
From CNN:
“Tagged: Ugly
Pontiac Aztek
Life span: 2001-05
Sadly, the Aztek could have been a successful vehicle if it hadn’t been quite so hideous.On certain rare occasions a car company can produce a model that many people find unattractive and yet, somehow, it ends up finding an adoring market. The Honda Element is one example. The Chrysler 300 is another.
Unfortunately, it didn’t turn out that way with the Aztek. In its five year production run, just 115,000 were made. The crossover SUV’s exterior, reminiscent of Pablo Picasso’s cubist period, doubtlessly drove away many buyers who might have loved the versatile vehicle packaged inside. The Aztek was always highly rated by its owners, garnering top scores in J.D. Power’s owner satisfaction surveys.”

From KBB:
2005 Buick Rendezvous
Highlights Technical Specs Features Safety
Quick Facts Details
Gas Mileage 18 mpg City / 27 mpg Hwy
Engine V6 3.6 Liter
Transmission Automatic
Drivetrain 2WD
Max Seating Capacity 6
Doors 4
EPA Class Sport Utility
Body Style Sport Utility
Country of Assembly United States
Country of Origin United StatesThis is the thing that makes me mad. You people are so blinded by your corporate and elite programming that you will even go so far as to make totally misleading statements to make US car makers look bad. Does that make any sense to your own well being? Your country? Your fellow worker bee?
OK I get it, you are total Toyota and Honda automitons, great for you! However, it would be refreshing to see just a little common sense applied to this arguement for once.
