I say the reason why GM and Chrysler are going out of business is because they did not make cars the people wanted to buy, let them go out of business, a company that is better run will take their place, oops already did last year "Toyota". Once the US gets a good kick in the pants then they will get serious and start making higher quality cars.
The thing that saved Ford so far was their trucks, but given the gas prices we don't know for how long. BTW Ford's hybrid technology was sold to them by Toyota it was their first try at it.
Toyota plants only have five car bays to put cars in off the line if their is something wrong, then they shut down the line. US manufacturers have whole parking lots of cars that need rework.
Everyone has been trying to make themselves into Toyota for the last five years, including BMW, the only problem is that they are 14 years too late.
By the way more foreign cars are manufactured in the US than US owned company's cars.
