Or something like that. Maybe its a good thing Olds did go out of business. If it were still around, probably all they'd be selling would be Bravadas and Silhouettes.

I was surprised. Never saw that coming, but it's all about profit, and there are way too many foreign cars on American roadways.

God, I HATE crossovers! The are horrid looking diaper mobile's. Carry on if you like those awful things.

yup cuv's suck and it's all about the money they could care less what people actually want.why was it what 10 years ago or so that gm loved making suburbans,they got crappy milage when gas was 4+ bucks a gallon but they were their highest profit vehicles,so they pumped em out like no tomorrow.

I like my Kias, they're both crossovers and they're great cars. I get my kicks driving my Oldsmobile and my f250.
Ford might regret that move. Then again, I've heard plenty about how car ownership will change in the near future.

Many of those "too many foreign cars" were built of American parts, by American labor, of a company that is publicly traded. The concept of "American car company" is outdated due to global manufacturing strategies. While it is true you have to have a board of directors that sits SOMEWHERE, every car company builds everywhere, and they are all on the stock market so anyone of any nationality can "own" part of the company.

Ford is not cancelling these cars to cancel them, they're cancelling them to retool the lines to make other models (SUVs)
