For odavno ne pravi male pick-up nego metne svoj znak na Mazdine i malo uradi na kozmetici po receptu Zastave na Yugo45.

Oni osrednji (F-150) i veliki (F250) su ustvari 2 tone sekundarnih sirovina, Ford Ranger (Mazda BT-50) je neunistiv
 
Не могу да кажем да ми их је жао - нарочито откад су почели да праве вози-поквари-баци аутомобиле + њихово константно брабоњање о "слободном тржишту" и "неолибералном капитализму":bljak:, али ипак ово не би било лоше прочитати. Могла би и књига да се напише - "ГМ од звезда до трња и... Куда даље?". С обзиром на то да су у "модерној" "купи-поквари-баци" технологији најнапреднији Кинези (искуство стечено прављењем играчака), све ми се чини да ће у свету ускоро постојати само 2-3 велика произвођача аутомобила, који ће у суштини нудити исто сра*е друго паковање:

Post-Bankruptcy GM Will Have Work Cut Out for It
Carmaker Faces Stiff Competition With Fresh Start

The new General Motors hoping to emerge from bankruptcy this week will find itself mired in a weak car market, besieged by competitors vying to eat up its dwindling market share and pressed to change its corporate culture, all under the eyes of a strange new government ownership structure.

General Motors won permission from a bankruptcy judge late Sunday night to sell its most-prized assets -- including the Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC brands -- to a new government-backed company, setting the stage for a historic restructuring plan that is at the heart of the Obama administration's overhaul of the ailing auto industry. And it will shed debt, dealerships, other brands and many of its former labor obligations in an effort to become a leaner, more effective competitor.

But analysts said the "new GM" will still have to deal with the same challenge as its century-old predecessor: Designing quality cars consumers want to buy at a price that will make the company profitable.

"Success is not just measured by cost cutting but by making a product that people want to pay for," said Sean McAlinden, chief economist of Center for Automotive Research.

"The easy stuff has been done now. Now comes the hard stuff," said Maryann N. Keller, an independent auto analyst and consultant. "From the moment that [GM chief executive] Fritz Henderson took over he had one job: To get the company ready for bankruptcy and get it through. That has nothing to do with designing or assembling or marketing cars."

The new GM will also be seeking to gain its footing in a highly competitive environment. U.S. auto sales are on pace to fall short of 10 million vehicles this year, the lowest level in more than a decade. And that has intensified the rivalry among struggling manufacturers.

Ford Motor, the only one of the Detroit Three to avoid bankruptcy, has been gaining U.S. market share. Fiat is breaking into the U.S. market through its new alliance with Chrysler and is angling to expand in China, where GM is strong; yesterday Fiat signed a $560 million joint venture deal with Guangzhou Automobile Group to build 140,000 cars and 220,000 engines a year. And Chinese automakers are also eyeing the U.S. market.

Meanwhile, Roger Penske, who has agreed to buy GM's Saturn dealer network, is expected to make a deal with a manufacturer that currently lacks outlets. "Whatever you flow through it will be something that wasn't flowing through it before," Keller said of the Saturn network. "What was GM's now becomes a competitor of GM."

The new GM will also have to overhaul its business model, which was built on a global platform that assigned design and engineering tasks for small cars to its South Korean unit, light trucks and crossovers to the U.S. operations, and midsize cars to its Opel unit in Europe. But in bankruptcy, GM gave up its controlling interest in Opel, raising questions about how GM will obtain critical design and engineering.

Amid the uncertainties that lie ahead, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Robert Gerber gave GM the go-ahead to complete a deal that will allow it to emerge from bankruptcy. His ruling came despite the objections of more than 850 parties and after three straight days of hearings that ended just before the long holiday weekend. In a 95-page opinion, Gerber sided with lawyers for the Treasury Department and GM, who argued that the government-orchestrated restructuring plan was the only option available to save the largest U.S. automaker, once the crown jewel of American manufacturing.

"The only alternative to an immediate sale is liquidation -- a disastrous result for GM's creditors, its employees, the suppliers who depend on GM for their own existence, and the communities in which GM operates," he wrote. "In the event of a liquidation, creditors now trying to increase their incremental recoveries would get nothing."

GM and the government hope to complete the sale transaction later this week, a source familiar with the matter said. That would be a major victory for the Obama administration, which recently completed a sale of Chrysler's assets to a new company led by Italian automaker Fiat. If GM is able to execute its sale this week, both automakers would have completed their trip through bankruptcy in about 40 days -- an unusually speedy process.

"That's very good news for GM," said John Paul MacDuffie, associate professor of management at University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. "To the extent that part of their problem was cost structure, ungainly size and too many brands, this allows them a fresh start . . . and a chance to proclaim that it's a new stage."

Gerber's decision could face appeals that would slow a deal. Steve Jakubowski, a lawyer representing five product-liability claimants, filed a notice of appeal with the bankruptcy court late Sunday. He said he was prepared to take the case all the way to U.S. Supreme Court on an issue that Gerber acknowledged was ambiguous.

Attorneys had argued that the "new GM" should be responsible for product-liability claims arising from accidents involving GM cars. The issue has galvanized consumer groups, which took their case to the airwaves and Congress. Some plaintiffs showed up in court in wheelchairs. Late last month, the government and GM reached an accord with states' attorneys general that would allow those injured in accidents occurring after the sale to sue the new GM, even if the accidents involve cars manufactured by the "old" GM.

Those appealing could face an uphill battle. Tort claimants and senior creditors in the Chrysler case took their cases to U.S. Supreme Court last month, threatening to delay the sale. Although the justices declined to hear the case, they made clear that their decision, which was not based on the merits of the arguments, affected only the Chrysler dispute.

But while Gerber said in his ruling that the successor liability issues were the "only truly debatable issues in this case," he still sided with the government, saying, "bankruptcy courts have the power to authorize sales of assets at a time when there still is value to preserve -- to prevent the death of the patient on the operating table."

The new GM would be 61-percent-owned by the federal government, which has committed more than $50 billion to the restructuring. A health-care trust for the United Auto Workers, GM bondholders and the Canadian government, which has also provided funding, would get minority stakes.

The Obama administration has repeatedly said that it does not want to run GM and that it planned to sell its government stake next year. But analysts questioned whether the administration would try to influence the business, especially after a Wall Street Journal article yesterday reported that top Tennessee officials were recently told that GM would consider "community impact" and "carbon footprint" in weighing whether to build compact cars in the state or in Michigan. Ultimately GM chose Orion Township, Mich., located just 35 miles from GM's corporate headquarters.

"If Washington owns it, it just can't keep its hands off," said Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) in an interview yesterday. GM declined to elaborate on its decision, but the state of Michigan and local officials offered hundreds of million of dollars in business tax credits, worker training and other incentives.
