Yep. And now I'm hearing all this crying about the poor
U.S. auto
mfgs from different sources.
I saw 3 ads on TV yesterday by these jokers, in
succession.
1. Chrysler - a big minivan gas hog.
2. Ford - a huge honking crew cab PU gas hog.
3. GM - a Caddie Escalade gas hog.
Now maybe that marketing was a coincidence or a product of
the
cable channel(s) I was watching (CNN, Fox or MSNBC - can't
remember).
But it doesn't matter. Keep marketing gas guzzlers and
you will die
or become further marginalized by the Asian automakers.
Have you never driven on a busy interstate? 80% of the cars
are SUVs and PUs.
BTW, my truck gets 6.5 MPG now.
