I think this is a ridiculous statement, if Ford, GM, and Chrysler built dependable, and stylish products maybe they wouldn't be billions of dollars in debt. ( Warranty sucks, service sucks, longevity sucks )

the only American made car I would ever consider is the corvette(always wanted one).

Yes, there are non-unionized plants....but it might involve moving. The Lafayette, IN Subaru plant, to my knowledge, is non-UAW....along with some of the plants in the South.

But the parking issue here at this Ford plant apparantly is not just union but management as well.

hm, i am not sure how positive these guys are if they are going to fire 30,000 of them? That doesnt seem like an good financial decision when you are possibly going to lose your job...
