While the American Automotive industry leadership, especially Ford’s, has certainly brought their industry to a painfully uncompetitive and inefficient state, it wasn’t exactly brilliant either to spit in the face of the one consumer who would have bought their deficient product on the basis of pure patriotism (albeit misguided patriotism) – the millions of Heartland Christians and conservatives who buy minivans and pickups – the biggest-selling US automotive products. These pompous, benighted geniuses put the nail into their own coffin and I, for one, do not shed a tear for them.
