  • Cars should be driven over a cliff and left abandoned on the freeways. I want to see the insurance companies and DMV go belly-up broke. Walking and riding bike is good for you. It costs less and you live longer. Yes. Abandon your cars and you will be free.

  • SMART BUS, Detroit, MI. The UAW President Gettlefinger along with Region 1's Joe Peters are all fighting hard to get a racist his job back after he was fired for threatening Obama while using Racial overtones. This guy had also discriminated against a Chaldean American. The UAW has no credibility when it comes to fighting against discrimination and hard working decent people. Copy the link below and paste it to the search bar on youtube's site:

  • You guys blew it with the corporate jets. You lost the trust of the American people,but I'll bet the flight was real comfy. Jerks....

  • GM closd plants in NJ. Gm didn't care about the impact of the closing on the people , state and economy. They upped production in Canadian and Mexica plants. Now the government wants my great great grand children to share the burden of bailing them and their corporate jets out.

  • Washington should give money to Toyota.

  • AMERICANS you did a fine job telling how important it is to buy American products from food to autos from USA companys who make and have higher standards fairer wages for USA workers and must comply with laws of our nation and be held responsible when they dont. Unlike many other nations selling goods in our country. Its time for all of our states to support one another. And not be traitors to some foriegn country lining their pockets and to cause people in the USA to live worst off with less

  • It has a Honda motor, that's why..... :)

  • thats why u go to Canada lol jk jk

  • Hmm. I don't know. These are the folks that brought us cold-blooded carburetor cars, brought us the Ford Pinto, TWICE got the country hooked on driving gas-guzzlers before energy prices jumped (one case involved a gas shortage of course), brought us the EV-1 and then forcibly repossessed all of them before shifting the focus to SUVs, and played media darling saying the Chevy Volt is actually innovative compared to the Tesla Roadster. I'm not exactly feeling sympathetic for some reason. =)
