This will be a feather in The Donald's cap.... he will make hay over this one and the American people will be on his side, party affiliation won't mean squat, this is jobs and liberals and conservatives both eat...

That's where you are wrong. Dodge parts been made in Mexico for years. GM has paid back their loans. Only ford hasn't. My 2016 Chevy Silverado was built in fort. Wayne Indiana. Why we are at it the most American made car is the Toyota Camery with union jobs. I work for a class 1 railroad. Wheel reports don't lie.

From the article - "Ford, not affiliated at all with Ford Motor Company...."

It's the very first line, genius...

I don't doubt your word at all... GM has not paid back there loans with "their" money... I'll see if I can still find the article... Would never by a Toyota truck... I had one that came with the company I bought, but as for on my own no, not a truck...


In an April 21 interview with Fox News’ Neil Cavuto, Barofsky repeated his assessment that the repayment was "good news" but should be taken with a grain of salt. "I mean, the good news is, that money — they already have that money that’s in that escrow account, so it does lower the total amount of money that they owe to the government, so that’s somewhat good news," Barofsky said. "But I don’t think we should exaggerate it too much, when we remember where — the source of this money is just other TARP money."

The president’s and GM’s statements may have given some the false impression that taxpayers have gotten back all the bailout money loaned to or invested in GM. Strictly speaking, Obama was accurate when he said: "GM announced that it paid back its loans to taxpayers with interest, fully five years ahead of schedule." But he alluded only vaguely to other bailout money, which taxpayers may never get back, adding: "It won’t be too long before the stock the Treasury is holding in GM can be sold, helping to reimburse the American people for their investment." Those statements might have confused anyone who wasn’t familiar with the details of GM’s stock-and-loan debt to the Treasury.

As for Treasury’s equity stake, worth $40 billion-plus, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has said the Treasury won’t fully recoup that money. The total automaker bailout, including TARP money given to Chrysler, CBO estimates, will cost taxpayers about $34 billion

You're correct...The F150 has always made them profitable enough to screw up everything else they make...

I traded my daughters 08 Malibu for a 2016 Honda CRV SE AWD just last night, and I will enjoyed every minute writing the check for it...
