This is the first news of an electric focus I have seen. I wonder if its a hybrid or a plug in?
However, since Chrysler has seen fit not to repay its federal loans, I will no longer buy cars built by chrysler, or fiat for that matter. |

In the perpetual tug-of-war that is modern opinion polling, a new poll has found that 61% of Americans are opposed to the issuance of federally subsidized loan money to the car industry. The new poll, conducted by CNN/Opinion Research Corp. contradicts an earlier study funded by General Motors.

I am not surprised a study conducted by general motors found people in favor of loan money to the car industry. You can select locations to get the results you want. GM probably conducted the poll in michigan.

Take your disgust to the government. Now the government holds the responsibility of debt loads, not Chrysler. If you want to refute the amount of money that was thrown at a black hole, you will need to take your fight to the US Bankruptcy judge and the Obama administration’s “task force.” If Chrysler or GM had the money to repay you, they wouldn’t be allowed to. Think twice before joining the popular opinion of consumer backlash. |

It is a pure electric Focus - no ICE inside. |

Toyota lost a BILLION more than GM.
This is hilarious. What are all the business writers and politicians going to say about this one? I would love to talk to Sen. Shelby right about now since he was holding Toyota up as the model of success in the industry and claimed Detroits issues had NOTHING to do with the economy. GM has to be loving this, it helps make it easier for the government to keep loaning them cash. Toyota wont be recovering any time soon. HYundai and Ford have stepped up their game considerably and are ready to pounce. Ford is looking like the smartest of the large automakers right about now with their 1.4B loss. |

Maybe, but if you are trying to lump me into that category it should be clear that we don’t endorse any maker. We just go for the companies that have the best product for our needs and are American. That’s something that your ilk lacks, you have no respect, loyalty or balls for that matter. |

My balls are fine, thanks for asking. if what you say is true, why do you drive domestics when crearly imports are superior? The funny thing is that the malibu got chosen as the north american car of the year. hahaha gm must of paid a hefty sum for each bogus vote. haha what a joke. The good thing is that smart consumers don't fall for the propaganda and continue to blow off that POS car. Now ,lets move forward. |

Nobody asked you about your balls dummy. WE stated that you didn’t have any, and it’s quite obvious you have no balls as your silly remarks fail to properly discuss the topic. So our point remains, you have no balls. |
