Did anybody here go to the autoshow in detriot? Quick summary Ford is going to revolutionize the automobile industry by using smaller displacement engines with turbochargers and direct injection. GM has there "electric concept" vehicle with estimated specs that are no where close to the specs of the Tessla vehicle sitting just a couple feet away. Nissan rented a decent sized space and left it completely empty, they didnt bother to even have a dealer bring a couple of cars from inventory to sit there. Then there was a true sign of things to come, a wakeup call if you will. Some car brand that I never heard of, BYD next to the empty nissan area. I hear someone make a comment about the engine layout and out of no where like a ninja, a really smart asian guy takes the time to explain the reason behind the design. So BYD actually took the effort to send engineers half way around the world to see what the american public thought about their cars. While GM, Ford and Chrystler got a bunch of skanky looking broads to stand next to theirs. American manufactures have a piss poor busness model and have completely 100% lost touch with their customer base.
