There are a few in my local area in San Diego that I occasionally see. Every time I see them I am disappointed they didnt succeed.

Someone paid at least half a million for that hideous thing. GM is stupid not to try and break into that (extremely lucrative) market. Also they’ve demonstrated an ability to make SUVs that look pretty good. I think the new Blazer actually looks really nice.

Ford CEO Jim Farley wants to turn the company into “the Porsche of off-road.”

Someone watched “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” recently.

...On second thought, lets not. *shudders in disgust*

Hot take: Corvette should have been spun off as a separate brand years ago, and they should’ve made an SUV to compete with the Urus and such. Basically make a Trailblazer SS successor with a nicer interior and C8-like styling for under $100k.

Came here for cars, got an economics lesson... no regrets.

Why not just put the tariffs on fentanyl and immigrants? 

Awesome stuff.

I don’t suppose there’s any connection between this sudden interest in producing cheaper cars and the large increase in sales of Hyundais and Kias mentioned in another article?

So normally I would come on here and call conservatives a bunch of pejoratives, but I’ve had a number of social media interactions that make me think perhaps people legitimately don’t understand how economics and government budgets work. So this is going to be a rare, good-faith attempt from me to explain this stuff…

the plan is for them to build more affordable cars

So, we’re gonna fuck up the auto industry on the american continent while china’s auto industry gets stronger and stronger because as it sits now, they don’t need us at all. We’d be a fairly tiny addition to their market. And europe can focus on the chinese market and forget us, as again, we are a drop in the bucket…

The US is the biggest bully since the pre 1940's British Empire. We are not ripped off or exploited by anyone. When our military or dollar-policy says “Jump”, other countries ask “How high?”. This current Administration has such a victim-mentality, or more accurately, exploits the massive desire of the populace to…

Also worth noting that nothing in that quote talks about things getting better. Nothing in any quote talks about how any of these decisions will actually improve anything. Not even a concept of how things can get better anymore. 

“Trump is billing the move as a means of clamping down on crime and immigration from the three nations”

I picked a hell of a day to quit sniffin glue.

“We may have short term some little pain, and people understand that. But long term, the United States has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world,” he said.
