"OP" here. I gave them my real name, so they decided to use that instead.

@dapper_otter: Oh jeez. Nice catch!

Valid point.

Thanks for running this competition, Ray and company. I think it's a testament to the strength of the Jalopnik community that there were over 200 entries!

Atta boy Opti! Well done!

The suspense is killing me! Did I submit it right? Did Jalopnik actually get it? Is it going to be up soon? Wah!

All sent in! 999 words, woot woot!

@jb68902: Jaguar - overpriced

I absolutely and wholeheartedly agree with EVERYTHING except it being slammed.

@CmndrFish: Damn you nibbles.

Milwaukee didn't make the list?

.....Leeeeena?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Saab is really only interested in BMW's I4's.

Hyundai is now a respected carmaker in North America considered competitive on all levels.

@FriscoFairlane: Ok, gotcha. Just wondering what your truck definition actually was.

No? Nothing?

@FriscoFairlane: The Grand Cherokee has always been unibody. Are you trying to imply that it's less capable than any Body-on-Frame midsize SUV because of that?

@Zee Kay: This is America, son. Any diesel smaller than 5.0L is some sort of europussy engine.

@jbsnet: Because that 50 billion was only to add 483 new jobs, and not save tens of thousands more that would have been lost otherwise?

@tankman: In the case of Chrysler, it could have very well been Chapter 7 bankruptcy (liquidation) instead of Chapter 11 (restructure) without the cash infusion.
