Off the cliff...

Tuesday, July 05, 2005


Well, it was bound to happen.. FORD just joined GM and Chrysler by matching the employee discount program for everyone..

Pressured.. yes.. smartest move.. probably not..

Now Toyota will keep pushing hard with great new products, that sell even at full price.. continuing to out distance the weaker North American companies..

Will this discount strategy work.. short term.. yes... long term... probably not...
