30million + ppl got no jobs and got no money. Ppl who have jobs and some money, like me (for now?), are buying only groceries and booze.

Do a little bit more reading about what would have happened to Ford had GM and FCA not taken those loans.

Yeah, but as I recall they did it by mortgaging pretty much everything they owned in advance of that. Could be that’s still affecting them.

That’s the thing - I’d wager a not-insignificant portion of the increase in pedestrian deaths can be attributed to distracted-walking.

Fixing the small truck rules under CAFE to match reality would be a good step towards encouraging smaller cars.

A Republican created the EPA by executive order, and also signed the Clean Water Act.

Hush your mouth. Don’t give them any ideas to screw up. You know what we’d get.   Ads slides between each Gear slide that would take forever to load.

I’m growing very tired of all the personal anti-truck sentiments. If it’s a news (morning shift) or review post, then keep your personal opinions to yourself and give us the news! It’s it’s an op-ed type piece, then rant away.
I would hope by now, you understood that Americans like a pickup truck. Maybe some of the…
