Here's my inspiration on how to save the American auto industry:
When Henry Ford produced his first car, there was a need to produce cars all day everyday. But now there is no need for new cars every year so why not produce cars every three years and allow for some real research and development and the dealships can stay active maintaining the vehicles they sell for three years.
A. Include in the sale price (or discount) the price of 3 years of oil changes B. Include in the sale price free tire rotations for the 3 year period C. Guarantee a trade-in regardless to the condition of the vehicle at time of trade-in D. Make arrangements with recylcing plants to recycle the trade-in.
Ban vehicles older than 5 years unless they are classics in modern day running condition (emissions, fuel, etc.). A lot of the nestalgia is that the car is inexpensive, not endearing.
