I went to the Tarrant County Car Show this afternoon to dream. I didn’t know that was ALL I’d be able to do while looking at all the new shiny cars!
You would think with the car industry in bad shape they would somehow give the consumer a break. After all…is it not cars they’re trying to sell?
Most of the cars and trucks they had at the show were the gas guzzlers. I only saw about 3-4 hybrids and wasn’t too impressed with the mileage they had to offer. Can we not do better than this?
The prices were outrageous! The “must have” vehicle here in Texas is the pickup truck. I’m surprised at how many there are on the road at the prices I saw. The average price for the trucks I saw was around 40K with a very pretty one going for over 50K!!! No wonder people are having a hard time making their mortgage payments!
I know the auto workers want and need to keep their jobs. Heaven help us all if they fail…but why not give us a good product without busting the bank??? It can be done. I’m sure of it!
