In my opinion the big three are suffering from the failure of the banking industry, and the fuel crisis, not their own business practices. You can argue quality all you want, Americans demanded big SUVs and the big there produced. These vehicles are of good quality and perform as advertised. It was only the fuel crisis that demanded fuel efficient cheap cars which are produced by the Asian company.

Should the big three reverse their business model now and produce cheaper vehicls at the cost of quality? I for one appreciate a heavier car that is built better than a lighter plastic model that gets a little better fuel economy. If cars are expected to be expendable and not last then I am fine with mass production of trash as long as they are marketed that way. Cheap light weight car thats returned at four year mark for "recycling" with a given value returned for replacement...
