Ford may have manufactured the Edsel, but even it was prettier than what’s happening to Chrysler and Government Motors.
Sales are down for everyone. But GM and Chrysler come in at the back of the pack. Here’s a complete list of June U.S. auto sales:
▼ 5% Kia, 26,845 units vs. 28,292 units
▼ 11% Ford, 148,153 units vs. 167,090 units
▼ 15% Volkswagen, 26,551 units vs. 31,411 units
▼ 20% BMW, 20,849 units vs. 26,155 units
▼ 23% Nissan, 58,298 units vs. 75,847 units
▼ 24% Hyundai, 37,943 units vs. 50,033 units
▼ 26% Mercedes, 16,271 units vs. 22,121 units
▼ 30% Honda, 100,420 units vs. 142,539 units
▼ 32% Toyota, 131,654 units vs. 193,234 units
▼ 33% GM, 175,792 units vs. 264,065 units
▼ 42% Chrysler, 68,297 units vs. 117,457 units
Please note that Ford, which declined a government bailout, a government intervention, and a government take-over, seems to be weathering the downturn better than most.

I’m all for American built cars, but not those built by spoiled little brats and corrupt corporations funded by an ever so increasing corrupt government led by a corrupt chicago machine politician.
