[QUOTE="Larry Morgan, post: 1545841, member: 4676"] GM is not above the "motivation by money" reality of our society. As long as big vehicles keep selling, they'll keep making them. It's an extremely reactionary system right now for some. Gas prices go up, (some/many) people start looking for alternatives in their cars, and buy gas efficient models. Big car sales drop off, car makers see this, and begin investing in more fuel efficient cars. The smart manufacturers have seen this coming, and have geared investments this way already. They aren't coming out and telling you what to drive, but they are trying to make it too darn expensive for you to do anything other than what they want you to. That's why I said he had part of it right. He's figured out that you can control the American populace through their wallets because it's true and well all know it. Nobody's going to bankrupt themselves just so they can drive what they want to. Eventually we'll give in. Either that, or abandon your standard of living completely. [/QUOTE]
