MARK PHELAN Will US start telling GM what to build?
Will the automaker be free to develop cars and trucks of of all kinds, or will bureaucratic meddling force GM to desert popular and profitable model lines like vans, luxury and performance vehicles? Will GM become Government Motors, making an attempt to jam politically correct minicars down the throats of Americans who don’t need them?
It would appear not, though GM will actually depend less on pickups and SUVs in the future.
government’s rescue plan for General Motors a business strategy or social engineering?
The query arises daily. Outwardly well informed folks declare the govt will force GM out of the profitable and important business of selling trucks and family vehicles, allowing it to build only small cars, hybrids and electric vehicles.
