Detroit needs somebody like Iacocca again, maybe come up with something radical like a EV pickup or something.

The traditional American brands owned by General Motors, the Ford Motor Company and the Chrysler Group held 48.1 percent of the market in July, according to a preliminary estimate by Autodata Inc., an industry statistics firm in Woodcliff Lake, N.J.

That meant foreign auto companies held 51.9 percent of the market. The most they had previously held was 49.8 percent of the market earlier this year.


I wonder if this fact will make an impression on American auto makers or on their shareholders.
