Everybody knew it was coming, but the extent of the disintegration of the US automotive market came clearly into view today as automakers reported their sales figures for June. During a month when the national average price of gasoline topped an average of four bucks, what does one expect? Well — how about an 18.8%… »
This week was supposed to be all about the ongoing Amerigasm in advance of the 4th of July weekend. We’ve had the best car commercials and our favorite American patrol cars as well as a tribute to the Dodge Charger Police Spec and The Blues Brothers. We’re all about the U.S. of A. But then… »
