Does This Make Sense To You???!!!
 
Mind you the automakers are struggling for sales.......RIGHT?! Now....I am at a dealership a couple weeks ago and I am looking at the brandie new Chevy Camaro!!!! Beautiful car to say the least....just a real beautiful machine!!! Price tag on window.........$45,000.00!!!!!!!:doh: Now come on....in this economy how many are going to spring for a toy like that???!!!! You would think that these dealerships would be focusing on sales as opposed to offering these "objects of desire" that most people cannot afford even on a good day!! Wouldn't it make more sense to manufacture and sell these types of vehicles at a more reasonable/affordable price so more can afford their slice of the "American Dream"??!!!! How about selling in volume and making more money than selling a few units and turning a few dollars on the sale???? Sell 1,000,000 units instead of just 300,000 units......$30,000.00 sounds more reasonable for cryin' out loud!!! Back in the day anyone could afford a Z-28 for about $20,000.00!!! We all had them!!! Not anymore though! The dealerships would rather these vehicles fill an "elite" niche'!!! And they wonder why they are not selling cars!!!!!!:fury:

It must have been the top of the line trim package and loaded. The new Camaro starts at like 22 or 23,000 dollars, but you need to show off the goods so the sales people can up sell.

And there are plenty of people willing to shell out 40 grand for a sports car!

I wouldn't buy a camaro unless Ford built it. Built Ford tough.

Plenty of people Spence but not enough to stimulate sales!!! These auto companies are spending too much time recreating the past at an unaffordable price!

Raven, Kia of all manufactureres has a test fleet of hydrogen cars on the highways right now. And there are hydrogen hybrid cars being tested, too. The future is coming fast to the auto world, and it's going to be pricey.

the world and ways of the Amish look far more appealing as time marches on.....
