btw, I disagree with his statement.

I wonder who interpreted the speech from Fetterman? Because I'm pretty sure it didn't come out like that.

He is a fitting representative for the fools of current day "America".

90% of the greens are terrible looking colors

You must be disgusted seeing plant life. Anyway sorry to disagree but I find greens some of the most beautiful colors in nature, or anywhere for that matter.

I agree, if you consider plant life, or in nature, but man does not make green as beautiful as God does

There are certainly some ugly greens out there. I never understood with all of the green choices out there why JD picked one of the ugliest shades they could find.

They are not alone though. We had two green Siennas at different times. The first one was a nice dark green. The 2nd one was fugly.

Back on subject once again...

Fain order the workers at the Ford Kentucky Truck plant (where the Super Duty's as well as the Navigators are made, to walk of the job the day before yesterday, which they did, all 1800 of them.

The 'beat down' goes on.

Not sure if Fain's strategy will work, but I do know that the more workers he calls off, the faster the strike fund gets depleted and when that is gone, striking workers will have NO income at all as they cannot collect unemployment because they voluntarily walked of the job. However the workers that Fords and GM and Stellantis laid off due to supply shortages in their respective plants, can and will get unemployment benefits.

Yesterday I watched an interesting video of a father and son at the Detroit Auto Show looking at the prices on the new vehicles displayed there and commented that no one with a sane mind would pay that much for any of them. I have to agree, the automakers have priced themselves out of the market, whether through greed and stupidity, I have no idea.

All I know is I won't be driving a new vehicle, ever. Cannot afford one.

"You all need to know that America is not sending their best and brightest to Washington, D.C.," Fetterman remarked during a late-night interview with Stephen Colbert on "The Late Show," sparking laughter from the audience. "Sometimes you literally just can’t believe these people are making the decisions that are determining the government here. It’s actually scary."

You think?

I hear a lot of people complaining about how much vehicle prices have risen. I think people tend forget how much value currency has lost.

The company I work for has its own line of products. I purchase raw materials, aluminum, steel, plastics, tooling supplies etc. I have records going back over 30 years and I can say, since about 2018, the prices for almost everything I purchase have doubled and some have tripled or worse. Some items are almost impossible to find at all.

If everything that goes in to producing a vehicle rises in cost the cost of the vehicle is bound to increase dramatically.

My long-term glass wholesaler said some of the window costs up 250%

Isn't glass made from sand.
