113. no the japanese are not the winners-we are
it`s the american workers that are the winners. back in the 80`s when we were the fault for the decline of american products because we were supposed to be lazy ass over paid workers who put out shit products. ya we were blamed for the big boys management failures. then the foreigners came in and gave us jobs to build cars that the big boys did`t want to... it was the american workers who kicked their asses..we made a good product that people wanted because we worked with a management that had values-a commitment to quality and a commitment to the workers. there`s been some ruff patches but the japanese commitment to the american worker remains as strong as ever.
it`s up to gm and ford to do the same

oh yes- i own a 1997 dodge intrepid with 240,000 miles and it just keeps rolling along at 25+ miles per gallon.
