The U.S. car manufacturers made a decision to build smaller, more economical cars too late. It takes 18 months to transform a factory from making big vehicles to small. Too late for Bill Heard and too bad for all those employees.

i think this fed infusion was to start with the electric car production.

Yeah GM started making more fuel efficient cars about 30 years too late in my opinion.The writing was on the wall in the late 70's when Honda,Toyota and other Japanese imports started showing up on American car lots but GM and the other two kept on making plush gas guzzling monsters......

Wrong,wrong,and still wrong!GM had the Vega,Citation,Cavalier and others.Toyota had the Landcruiser,4runner,and tundra.Your tired rant will not fly.GM,Ford and Chrysler made junk,period!

Yeah and how many Vega's do you see on the road today?The point of my argument is that Honda and Toyota were making fuel efficient AND dependable cars way before anyone else bothered to.Japanese cars are just better.
