GM Bailout News General Motors Says moms - helped make SUVs

GM Bailout News General Motors Says moms - helped make SUVs top sellers The Family Car Finally Gets a Mom's Touch Ten years ago, women - especially moms - helped make SUVs top sellers because of their roominess, safety and command view of the road. But, the rugged, off-road-ready SUVs were not originally designed with families in mind. Now, women are driving sales of a new generation of "family car," the crossover.

A crossover is vehicle that looks like an SUV, but is actually built like a car. They are more comfortable, have a smoother ride and better fuel economy than their truck-based SUV cousins. And unlike SUVs, many are being designed with women and their needs in mind. In fact, carmakers like Chevrolet are bringing in their top female designers and engineers to make sure these family haulers have all the right tools.

These female automakers are making sure the vehicles are equipped with extra safety features, storage and family-friendly accessories. Putting real mothers in charge of engineering, design, quality and manufacturing is like having the ideal customers behind the wheel from start to finish.

both my parents drive GM cars. and both of them sucks balls. ones a 2006 and the other is a 2008. shitty interior materials, weak powerplants. my 2001 nissan pathfinder has more power, more standard features, and a better reputation than either of their chevys. just sayin.

The USA's biggest export is now paper boxes which are used to ship goods from other countries like china to the usa

The American Textile industry and the American Steel Industry once had a worldwide monopoly with no competition. But unions greed soon put them completely out of business. Textiles and steel are now made only in foreign countries. Unions will soon put GM and other US auto makers and workers out of business.

How is it fair that japanese cars are imported here with very little tariffs and for us Americans to ship their cars over there, they are taxed so much that no one would buy them. How is it that everyone claims their jap cars are just or more american., when toyota's total number of plants in the entire country of 10 is the same number that GM has in the state of Ohio alone? How is it a fair playing field? And I assume you drive foreign... they got bailouts to, from Japan though.. and not us.
