Chinese manufactured cars are pouring into Europe and are starting to threaten long standing established automobile manufacturers. These cars are cheap, get great gas mileage and selling like hotcakes. Chinese car manufacturers thank all those in the Western World for teaching them how to do this and for all those fabulous designs that they were able to copy, by changing a few items and making them out of cheaper and lighter materials.

Are we going to see a repeat of the Deming Era in automobile manufacturing in our nation? As prices increase more and more for fuel people are going to be interested in buying less expensive SUV type gas-guzzler vehicles and greater numbers of tiny fuel efficient vehicles. The automakers previously made the mistake of continuing to build larger gas consuming vehicles previously and were over taken by the Japanese Automobile manufacturers who sold millions and millions of fuel-efficient imports.

Will China do the same in now that the Japanese did back then? We cannot preach free enterprise and block Chinese goods and still save face. Will the American Automakers wake up in time? Will fuel prices get back to where they really ought to be? Or is the United States Automakers doomed to repeat? What say you; do you think this is a dead end road? Think on it.
