Cash for Clunkers Saps Demand
“What do you make of overall car market? By the way, we’ve got Ford’s auto sales down 5.1% in the month of September. That’s not a very good showing. Overall the American car market is going to shrink to below 10 million vehicles this year. I think we have some quick revisionist history...
