What ever happened to the "Old Boys club" in Michigan that kept American automotive technology the crest of the wave for so long? have they really failed so badly? Is it true that BYD of China has the Electric Shanghai taxi proven in service for over two years, and purportedly a Volt knock-off, while the Volt languors on the drafting tables in Michigan offices? Too much lead in the water in the states? More, better respected, better treated Engineering graduates in Asia? What the Hell happened?Americans had the lead, and in a few decades lost it all! Basic formulas must be drastically altered in America to turn this sort of thing around, if not too late already! Detroit City a goddammit! slum! WTF! Yankee Doodle! First you hogged all the technologies, not even allowing the poor Canadians to build the Avro Arrow in the 50's, now you waste the grip we gave you! Assholes! Undependable slothful fat asses! Even Europe builds the biggest best planes today - and in modular form using the latest technologies while you still rivet together aluminum air-frames from the 60's? What happened to our robust and super-intelligent "superior" neighbor to the south? lead get in your water? Holy Fuck man! pull up before you die in third world conditions! get off your 1920's designed Harley Davidson's, try a Honda with 6 cylinders and fuel inject, and realize you are lost in your own past glories, your movies still winning WWI some 60 years ago, and you rest on rusted laurels with your fatted asses and huge frames useless in the Asian computer age! Because of diet alone your EROI puts you behind the Asians who are veggies and rice burners, Your physical size requires too much energy to economically transport you! Industry no longer measures a man by the strength of his arms, but by the quickness of her mind! This Kia built in the spirit of Asian efficiency is a product of smaller, primarily vegan , light bodied quick minded folk - you now! the "nerds" who did not make the football team, and lost preferential breeding rites in your society! They have come back to haunt you with superior products better designed and likely more marketable in the computer age, while you remain stuck in the 60's with massive high cubic inch engines we go metric and kick your stupid ass! Copy this, Detroit! Kia, outstripping GM(America)'s design capabilities and using Asian components only!
