First, go back to hickville and work on your 1979 Rustang. Second, you better check your yourself before you start throwing out statements like that. Cheesy Jap cars? Have you ever been in a true Japanese car? Supra, Skyline, Silvia, NSX, 300ZX TT, 350Z, Evo, STi, Integra Type-R, etc, etc? They would put your cheesy american cars to shame. Running on either a 6cyl or a 4cyl engine and they still outdo your rediculous American V8's that are so dated they need to be tossed in the trash.
The build quality of a Japanese over a Domestic car is undeniable. I've yet to see a domestic car, truck, or suv go 500k+miles without a rebuilt engine or replacement, or some type of major problem in general. There was a 1995 Honda Civic EX with 998,000 miles on it for sale last year. Still on the stock engine, ******, etc. Basic maintenance required and it ran forvever. In fact, Honda NA purchased it to put in their museum.

Lastly, the Big-3 DON"T deserve the bailout. They are to worried about their own personal finances to care about the american public. They flew to the bailout hearing in GM's $36mil dollar jet. Hows that for American ignorancy? The big-3 are moving their operations to Mexico and Canada for cheaper labor costs. While Japanese and European auto makers are creating new jobs by bringing their operations here.

Get your facts straight before you open that hole in your face. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif

and apparently, you havent experienced true american muscle.

highlighted: and I highly doubt that.

Ford does make a Taurus. It is called, Taurus. It is a rebadged 500. They also have the Taurus X which is a Taurus wagon/van.

IMO the 500 was just a new name for taurus. Same plant and same genre of car. Just a major overhaul after a complete retooling in the plant. I don't know why they slapped the 500 badge on it for a few years.

It was. I read an article where Ford just renamed it back to Taurus since the Taurus has more name recognition.

What does the F150 being the best selling truck have to do with anything? Did you think the Toyota Tundra was the best seller? Nissan Titan? Im not really following you here?? Thats like being suprised the Ford Ka isnt the best selling eco-car in Japan...

If you think that is true, maybe you should get out of Jersey...Been to 44 of the lower 48 and resided in several parts of the country and i wouldnt say the "majority" is white trash...sorry, but thats my somewhat educated assumption..

If we dont have GM, Daim/Chry and Ford...who would built tanks, bombers, and everything else in war time..god forbid. They're a staple to our defense...

..as far as what i quoted, that you decided to quote..I was merely trying to point out how ridiculous the word "ignorancy" was..

Saying the Big 3 should just be allowed to die is almost as retarded as people saying unions are a bad thing. People dont think before they speak.

No sense even arguing over this one. Some people just dont get it and by the way, I am perfectly happy with my Focus............small? I am 5-10 255 pounds and have plenty of room in my Focus. Now my Eclispe I had, I could barely get my head in the car with the seat all the back.

Maybe someone shouldn't have bought such a small car. I have a nissan pathfinder and love it. Better gas milage than explorer and trailblazer. Smoother ride and faster.

Also considering the Eclipse he had was made in Northern Illinois and might as well be a chrysler product anyway.

whats the difference if were fighting 3rd world countries with no military capabililty.

Youre not following. If GM etc wasnt around...we would be speaking German or japanese right now..If someone decides to sack up and **** with us..were screwed w/o them.

We went right after Mercedes and all the other german car companies at the start of the war...What do you think the 4 rings of the Audi symbol mean? Its the car companies that used to exist that we blew up.

RED NECKS DRIVE TRUCKS AND LOVE FORD (Chevy).

Did you think the Toyota Tundra was the best seller?

IT WAS, but the F 150 has reigned number one for longer

Nissan Titan?

That's because you're dumb.

No it's not. You're dumb.

If you think that is true, maybe you should get out of Jersey...

I've lived and been to many places all over the world. So again, you're dumb. I've actually lived in GA for a year, Myrtle Beach for a few months. I love the south, but everybody is DUMB JUST LIKE YOU.

You have to be kidding me. Those companies may own or have shares in the same institutions that build our military vehicles, but to say that the companies themselves (the Big 3) are needed running to support the construction of military vehicles is just pain ignorant.

I don't think anyone really thinks unions are a bad thing. In the big 3's case they just need to back off a bit and learn to be more reasonable. Just look at the sh!tstorm Wallmart reigns down on their employees, I think everyone can agree they deserve one.
