Detroit's Biggest Failure: Losing the Youth Market

One more idiot blaming the UAW when they do not have a clue. He probably thought the bailout of the banks was needed.

Chevy Volt Debuts to Enthusiasm in California

Jaybird is right! You can speak in theory all you want but the execs at GM are not going to lower the price of the Volt. They will price it at the highest the market will accept and then continue to raise the price. As far as building at a loss, are you serious! They have such economies of scale that it is almost impossible for them to build at a.loss. Their concern is the level of profit not loss. They do not lose on anything they build. They can make the numbers say whatever they want them to. The fact is, if the battery is 15k then the rest of the cost in the car will not be more 6k. Everything else will be profit. Belive what you want. They have plants (or did have) that could build 1200 a day. Do not be fooled by everything that is being reported. GM is a great company with great employees from the person on the line up to the engineers to the staff that supports the process. The problem with GM is its leadership. Union as well as management.
