Default RE: Survival on dealer's row

inventory from Detroit that isn't selling
They gotta stop making ugly cars. I think many American cars have been ugly for decades. I dunno why that is or why they won't stop making ugly cars despite being in a desperate financial situation. I just went to look at Toyota's web site and none of their cars are ugly like most of Dodge's cars are. I've seen Subaru's lineup before, and I know that they don't have ugly cars. I think American car companies must have stupid designers and stupid executives. Maybe the Japanese hired away our best car designers. It's very simple: I won't spend a ton of money to buy an ugly American car.

American car companies need to start making much better looking cars and also capitalize a lot more on their heritage. Make some slick new cars that are inspired by the very best American designs from the past. For one thing I think it'd be cool if they made a new car based on the best of 1950's styling and put some fun two-tone color schemes on it. Also I really like the Nomad station wagons, so they could build a new SUV based on the Nomad's styling and call it Nomad. Also I wouldn't mind new cars based on classic cars like the Duesenbergs. Also I think it would be fun to have a new pick up truck that is styled after a 1940's pickup, with the round, bulging fenders, etc.

Dodge has to stop doing stupid things like not giving us more of the bright heritage mopar colors for the Challengers.
Over 50% of the 2008 SRT8's were ordered in Hemi Orange. That should be a giant clue for Dodge's stupid executives that we want the bright retro colors.
Seems like they're trying real hard NOT to listen to what we want.
