The Case for Making Bigger Cars

6 years ago, the B3B (Big 3 Bozos) were likely planning gasoline as of 12/31/08 to be what is was back then, about $1.60 per gallon Regular. That would have given them the confidence to keep producing whatever made money at the time. Their BoDs would have demanded nothing less. Now, even though it looks like the B3B couldn't plan their way to the men's room, their gas price assumption is dead-on.

Funny how you can be right and end up dead after all.

It would have taken extraordinary leadership skills to move the Fs, the GMs, the DCXs in a way as to position them for what we now know. Exactly that kind of leadership is what they get the $20M annual compensation for, right? They have, to a bozo, failed. Their vaunted leadership skills? Insert favorite hand gesture here.

On their epic road trip to DC, I hope they have had time to not only admire the scenery outside Detroit, but also to note how little space their products occupy on roads once they leave their little bubble-world. They are not half as important to this country as they think they are.
