ChadTower:
Mmm Ford... parts made in China, car assembled in Mexico... good American car.
If you want an American car buy a Hyundai.
Cakemeister:
I'd probably get a new Aveo if they cost $6k.
daywane:

You can get a great ride for $4k
New I would look at Ford or Toyota

I don't like the bailouts at all, and failing is just a part of capitalism. If we don't fail, how do we learn from our mistakes?

That's true, but most of the foreign companies have always been subsidized by their governments. So an American company is at a disadvantage. The government wasn't helping them before this, and Americans in general have no loyalty to American companies.
I remember reading a story a few years ago about employees at an American car company being upset because they were told they could no longer park their foreign cars in the employee parking lot.
The news coverage was siding with the employees. I thought it was totally ridiculous. These people can't even be loyal to the company they work for and the company is the bad guy.
