The Big Three had their opportunity last year to rid themselves once and for all of the albatross around their necks known as the UAW. Instead, they caved and gave the UAW what they wanted.

No sympathy here.

In 1955, General Motors enjoyed a 50% market share. Half the vehicles sold in the U.S. were built by GM.

It’s been a long, slow slide into oblivion.

It’s a fuel-efficient vehicle.

It’s too bad that GM and Ford think otherwise.
