directed solution nothing will. Ethanol isn't a problem. Food crop ethanol should have been a non-starter, or at the most a minor contributor to bio-fuels production, but some saw a way to combine an energy subsidy with a way to pay off corporate farms and commodity speculators ran with the info. Nothing wrong with making money. A fair profit benefits everyone. Greed and incompetence, ...

I guarantee that if any of the Detroit 3 file bankruptcy, it's game over for auto manufacturing of any kind in North America. And people can stuff the anti union rhetoric. Bottom line is that all the transplants have virtually no retirees and workforces that are on average, ten years younger than Detroit's, giving them a significant cost advantage that runs out for Toyota & company in 2010, if ...

So, the wife and I are looking at buying a new car in the next week or so. Our wish list? - $20k range - 4 door - Manual tranny - Economy class - Fun to drive - MUST get out of it's own way (no little 1.8's, thank you very much!) We want something comparable to her current car, an 02 Nissan Sentra SeR Spec-V. We've narrowed it down to 3 cars so far: 1. Lancer GTS - ...

You and I may not ever get out of a hole if they bailout everything that comes along, companies, etc. But we will all survive if the screwed up companies of this country HAVE to and are FORCED to re-organize, with new lower cost management, lower ...

So here it he listing of the ETs and Traps that the cars were getting yesterday. Look at some of the horrible ETs some of the cars were getting that trapped over 120mph!

The yellow Porsche had runs over 120mph but only manage 12-13 second + qtr mile ...

Quote: I love it when clueless West Coasters analyze Detroit. Let me shatter some myths for you. 1. Detroit made big vehicles because that's what Americans wanted. 2. The Big Three's quality is as good or better than Japan's. Just look at the JP Power #1 rankings by vehicle segment for 2008: Large vehicle category -Pontiac Grand Prix Midsized car - Chevrolet ...

" Doesn't that mean that Big Oil was in bed with Mercedes, BMW, VW, Peugeot, Citrogen, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Fiat, Suburu, Suzuki, Alfa Romeo, Jaguar, Hyundai and Kia too? After all, any of them could have built the electric car instead of ...

My Honda was made in thte US. Previously, I had 2 GM cars. The first was a complete gas guzzler and had a few expensive repairs. The second was a fine car, and lasted me 7.5 yrs, and I bought it slightly used. It was a great post-college car, pretty reliable, especially when compared to Mr. Frau's European vehicle he had when we started dating (he now has a Ford truck). But, when it came ...
