*** begin quote ***
The bottom line is that Ford is going over to aluminum chiefly to make it politically feasible to continue building a mass-market full-size truck. As I have ranted about previously, the “driver” is not market demand so much as government mandate.
*** end quote ***
So here we have again politicians and bureaucrats making the market conform to their wishes.
And yet everyone claims that the USA is “free”.
Guess I have the wrong dictionary?
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/free
*** begin quote ***
free adjective, freer, freest.
{Extraneous Deleted}
5.exempt from external authority, interference, restriction, etc., as a person or one’s will, thought, choice, action, etc.; independent; unrestricted.
*** end quote ***
So there is no ECONOMIC justification to buy one of these.
Argh!
