now on to all of you guys talking about the japanese "outdid" us....nonsenese!!!
Legacy costs did them in....c.a.f.e standards did them in....industry that has a union always seems to be in trouble....thats not a coincidence!!
corporate greed and big business??? stop it the japanese companies pay almost half in total costs which give them the ability to have cheaper cars and or better quality materials...which makes it more difficult for gm to compete
