Cars No One Wants: A Few More
There are three more vehicles that didn’t fit into my earlier entries of cars that no one wants. The first two are competing vans from GM and Ford, while the third is the only off-road vehicle to buy if you are serious about off-roading.

Cars No One Wants: The Truck Edition
People in the U.S. have stuff. We have horses, machinery, waverunners and boats, dune buggies and dirt bikes, fifth-wheel trailers, toy haulers. No company outside our borders offers a vehicle ready to contend with all of our stuff.

Cars No One Wants: The Dreaded SUV Edition
No one will win any arguments trying to say the SUV isn’t an inefficient over-sized vehicle. But the argument isn’t about American car companies making over-sized land yachts. The argument is that no one wants them... which is simply not true. If you have a lot of people you need to move, and you have some heavy equipment that needs to come along... you’re not doing this using a Honda Odyssey.

Cars No One Wants: Muscle Car Edition
The talking points memo went out last week, and apparently all reporters and talking heads are suppose to mention that the American car companies make cars people don’t want, and no cars people do want. All three companies make cars that not only do people want, but no foreign company offers. Today I am exploring a few that may seem like unpopular offerings (though sales do not support that theory)... the American Muscle Car.

The Auto Giant Mess
There’s a lot of opinion being tossed out this weekend and today about the auto-giants and the possibility of a bail-out. Questions like, “What is special about G.M. that they should be able to live as though 2008 never happened?” Statements like, “They can be replaced by car companies that can design, build, and market cars that people actually want,” or, “The simple truth is that Ford and G.M. make ugly, inefficient cars that few people want to buy.” Ignorance repeated like, “They deserve to go under for killing the electric car.” There are so many points that are wrong in these questions, statements, and suggestions.

No More Excuses
The way that I was raised was, “Nobody’s better than you, and anything that you want, you set your mind to it and you go get it. Period.” I believed that it was possible, but I didn’t know if I really believed. The history of African-Americans is such that you want to be a part of America, but we’ve been rejected so much it’s hard to take the ownership and take responsibility for ourselves and this country. It was like, at that second, at that moment, all of our excuses were gone. – Will Smith on the election of Barack Obama.
