After getting that $88 billion bailout They'll bring back sedans and start researching EVs...for about 4 years and switch back to gas guzzling jacked up overcompensating trucks for the men and big suburbans/yukons for the moms who pay more attention to their phones than the road.

Rinse repeat

they'll bring back sedans

Dodge: here's your Dart

Chevy: here's another Cobalt clone that uses a worse motor

Ford: We'll make any Sedan you want as long as it's a Mustang and not a sedan

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
