If Toyota Is Projecting a Loss, Imagine the Pain Detroit Is in For

John D, Marion and Kokomo have been "company" (aka Big 3) towns for decades. Princeton (Toyota), Greensburg (Honda), and Lafayette (Subaru) have not. Of course, the mayors of Marion and Kokomo are going to be asking for federal help.
