This is the key line in the article
"Anticipating higher gasoline prices, the cars will be "more and more toward the sweet spot of the market"

When Government Motors begins producing these cars, watch the oil market mysteriously start going through the roof.

I like the Bronco, but geeesh, trying to keep it running. Has the 300 inline 6. Mileage sucks. One plug keeps fouling. All kind of wires to nowhere. Like the manual locking hubs. One day, maybe I can put a new 305 in it.

parsy, who is staying with the Dodge for now.

More likely Corker was targeted because of his behavior at the auto show...his comments were not appreicated by GM or any other American manufacturer.
