“...The Japanese understand this, but Detroit has never gotten it.”

Aw, come on, P-40. I can well remember the superlative Corvair and Valiant. True, cutting-edge technology all the way — that left Toyota and Nissan in the dust!

And, just look at the gleaming store-fronts on Woodward Avenue — the direct result of such enlightened Automotive Industry leadership and forward thinking over the past decades!

I just can’t wait to buy my next 40K Caddie. Maybe this time the rear doors will open without the assistance of a crowbar.

God, how I despise shortsighted Corporate Greed ! Pox on Detroit! Michigan deserved better, but the labor unions were as morally culpable and mendacious as their management counterparts.
