Once Obama-economics are instituted, you won’t need pickup trucks. There won’t be any work.

What will I do with my $100.000 (comparatively cheap) motorhome? What will my friends do with their $750,000 rig in which they live and travel 24/7/365?
How about my SIL who has a small truck to perform his work chores. How about my daughter’s company that uses a ‘big rig’ to buy/sell wholesale tomatos? How about the hundreds of Wal-Mart trucks delivering from warehouse to store?

The auto industry are in their current position for a reason. How does giving them 50 billion change anything? If they don’t change what brought them to this place, they will be right back where they are now after they lose the bailout money.
If a business is failing, it needs to...

A new “People’s car” much like the Soviet Zaporozhets or a Chinese Geeley. Little cars that get 44 mpg and go 26 mph.

When Obie started talking about “sacrifice” no body, not even any Pubbies asked him what people would have to give up.

Sure, I’m going to put around the Riverside county hill country with a Hyundai 4 cylinder enviro-friendly piece of crap. Bail out Detroit, and dump on their products. The audacity of hypocrisy.

That works too. Classic. Sleek. Priced for everyone.

Although Trabants had been exported from East Germany, they became well-known in the West after the fall of the Berlin Wall when many were abandoned by their Eastern owners after migrating westward. News reports inaccurately described them as having cardboard bodies. This is likely due to the fact that the body of the Trabant was Duroplast, a material that, in East German production, often made use of varying quantities of different fibers, such as cotton, or occasionally paper.

In line with the Obama Maladministrations offer to bail out the U.S. auto industry if they stop production of SUVs and trucks and retool for smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles, Obama today ordered ALL presidential and White House vehicles be replaced with this new design (which looks suspiciously like the 85 Yugo GV).
