They aren't going out of business any time soon.

Make cars people want, and they'll buy American. People want fuel efficiency, yet the Big Three still is still making SUVs and GM is still making Hummers.

We had an argument in class about all the 3 making big gas drinkers and SUVS but people cant seem to afford those cars on the long. But people still want to get SUVS cause they look cool like me :/. They got 10 months left unless they get the bail out which wont guarantee anything.

The thing is, the general public isn't buying American because no one wants cars that aren't fuel-efficient. American cars never really have been fuel efficient until a few years ago because the Big 3 are JUST realizing that people want fuel efficiency.

The car style is too big to be fuel efficient, unless it's a hybrid.

1. We're not running out of oil, and won't be for a while. The problem is that who actually holds the oil.
2. Carbon emissions? *yawn* Too lazy to get into my global warming argument.
3. Gas prices are going down because people aren't driving. People aren't driving because gas was 4 dollars per gallon. Once people go "hey gas is $1.89 i think ill start driving again", gas will go up to 4 dollars, and the cycle will continue in that fashion until we find an alternate fuel source.

You actually get the point for once, amazing. People are going to start doing that everywhere because gas is under 2.50 at the highest, I think, and then gas is going to go back up. It's an endless cycle until we have a true alternate fuel source.

Thing is, there are some people who'll still buy those.

Two cars that i'd get if I could would be either the new Corvette ZR1 or the new 2009 Dodge Ram.  But my parents need the money to resurface the hardwood floor (OMFG SPLINTER CENTRAL), redo the drive way, which is a cracked up piece of s*** that leaks water into the basement (which translates into we got flooded several times down there due to almost non-stop heavy rain, and had to reduce the potential of black mold formation, or remove what mold we had.  Black mold isn't healthy to have in a house.), see if we can get a new garage, not to mention the former car is 100K.  At least it's much cheaper than other cars of similar performance.  The 2009 Dodge Ram is a beastly truck that'd be awesome to have.

Did I forget to mention that bankruptcy doesn't always translate into the utter destruction of a company.  Occasionally, if you file for file 19 bankrupty protection, it can give you time to resturcture.  But not always.

No, I don't think I'll be affected.
But bailout or no bailout, they're going to go out of business. The bailout will just delay it.
Unless they start making cars people want.

Anyhoo. they're not going out of business. Ford has some money leftover for a while, but we'll see how long that lasts.
Besides, it's their own darn fault they're losing money. Make cheaper and fuel efficient cars instead of those hulking trash bins they make now and people will buy it. And they have the nerve to ask the public to bail them out. If I were a lawmaker I'd say HELL NO you dug your own grave now live in it.

1. We're not running out of oil, and won't be for a while. The problem is that who actually holds the oil.
So?  Just because there's still oil left, doesn't mean we shouldn't conserve it.  The better we are at reducing the amount of oil we consume, the more time we gain to find alternatives for the day when oil does finally run out.  It will run eventually, and no one can deny that.

Quote2. Carbon emissions? *yawn* Too lazy to get into my global warming argument.
Again, I don't see why reducing these is a bad thing.  Even if you disagree with global warming, it's still good for the environment.  But god forbid anyone give a poop about that.

Quote3. Gas prices are going down because people aren't driving. People aren't driving because gas was 4 dollars per gallon. Once people go "hey gas is $1.89 i think ill start driving again", gas will go up to 4 dollars, and the cycle will continue in that fashion until we find an alternate fuel source.
I disagree,  people are still aren't driving as much as they used to, since people are starting to realize that relying on low gas prices to remain low is a bad idea.

He probably will change once he has to start paying for gas.....

If you want non-fuel efficient cars, get one from the late 60's/early 70's. They practically made them waste fuel on PURPOSE.

you can blame 1950's home appliance manufacturers for that. The days of fuel efficiency are here at last. Maybe stupid ass Detroit will finally take notice now that Japan is kicking their sorry asses...

How is conserving oil, reducing carbon emissions, and lowering gas prices a big mistake?
Well the way the SUV's look is just cool. They need to add those oil reductions in the SUVs :/ or is that not possible?
Nobody gives a s*** if they look cool if their Hummer XXXXXL or whatever is getting 2mpg.

I do. I don't give a s*** about what the mpg is really. Also I'm not the only one who dosnt give a s***! I want big cars >:I If the car looks small and puny and its gets 30 mpg thats good, but I want a big car that just looks cool!
err

Perhaps you should rethink your priorities
He probably will change once he has to start paying for gas.....

If you want non-fuel efficient cars, get one from the late 60's/early 70's. They practically made them waste fuel on PURPOSE.
Planned Obsolecence...
you can blame 1950's home appliance manufacturers for that. The days of fuel efficiency are here at last. Maybe stupid ass Detroit will finally take notice now that Japan is kicking their sorry asses...
They have had the ability to make fuel efficient vehicles LONG before Japan started dominating American car sales. It was their fault that it took them so long to discover what the consumers wanted.

I think that there is a law in the USA saying that any car or truck that claims to be a 2010 model or later has to get at least 25 miles to the gallon.

That's possible with sports cars, but practically impossible for huge cars like Hummers and Escalades.

Well by sports car if you mean a porch yeah but then again I just want an Escalade cause of the urban environment that I'm around. Sports car are more expensive but whats the point I just want something that looks big and shows people I can manage money >_>. The first impression I get when I see a guy driving an escalade is young and must have a business or something. The live style that I want. Also Silver don't worry I have in my bank account the amount of 17.00$ but my mom has the money to buy me a car so its not my monies its my moms monies :3
