The biggest difference is a car manufactured by a company run by people who actually know how to run the business.

How many things is the gubmit going to subsidize? Hey, my old CRT TV burns more juice than an LCD, think the gubmit will subsidize a nice LCD for me?

Does Obama know how to run 'GM' business? We'll see about it.

I would gladly trade in my 1999 gas guzzling Ram that I barely use ... it has 180,000 miles on it. Anyways ... love to trade it in for a hybrid when they come out ... I will hold out for a higher ante from Barack.

Look at all the people so willing to take a hand out. Gotta love the society we're creating. Besides that, think about all the poeple who will simply go out and buy a new vehicle, when they either don't need, or can't afford one. I know though, this was popular in Europe. Jeez, I can't possibly figure out why?

I'm talking about your foreign automakers... nobody is bailing them. Someone here mentioned that foreign cars are made up of more American parts than American cars.

If you can't beat them then join them ...

If I get a handout I will go take Zeituni for a ride around the block.
