R.I.P. David E. Davis Jr. - Autoline Daily 608

Reports coming out of France say that Carlos Ghosn may have withheld evidence from police involving Renault's espionage case. IHS Automotive analyst Michael Robinet says the disruptions in the auto industry caused by the earthquake in Japan will be significant once parts shortages hit North America. The Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation is hard at work reviving the MG brand and yesterday it debuted the new MG3. All that and more, plus a look at Daimler's new heavy-truck brand that was developed for the Indian market.

Big mistake lying to cover your own behind Ghosn! At least if they don't drag him off to jail, he should lose his job. Either way, he is Ghosn, Ghosn, Gone!

US auto-makers need to get out of Detroit, where the enviornment is detrimental and even hostile to business vitality and economic dynamism...

Go South, to a right-to-work state, where America's competitors already are.

If Daimler already owns Mitsubishi Fuso, why don't they purchase Mitsubishi automotive?
