I'm so disappointed in the American auto industry. American industry used to be seen as the model for technical innovation. We lost sight of that somehow in seek of short-term profits. They grew complacent selling their heavy, dirty, gas-guzzlers to the masses.

Unfortunately Detroit only wants to sell me a 15MPG gas-guzzler. Get with the times, Detroit! Sometimes I wonder if they are oblivious to the fact that gas is quickly approaching $4/gal. Detroit's most fuel-efficient cars only offer about 35MPG. Honestly, that is pathetic when their competitors have been offering vehicles with nearly 60+MPG for years now.

I know that Detroit has it in them to produce a quality, fuel-efficient car that could rival the Prius and Civic Hybrid's MPG, if they would just put forth the effort. It would require them to let go of their gas-guzzler culture, though.
