Can't wait to see GM and Chrysler's info. I'll post up when I get it.
sad thing is, ford dumped almost all their stake in mazda after learning all the tricks. lol oh well. ford also downsizing dealers and wholesalers by like 600 dealers and 750 wholesalers. hopefully chrysler and gm will jump on this bandwagon. all its gonna take is for a few really rich people to want to not get any richer...HA! the UAW owns the auto market, and now, the US government. sad..
