Harry Is Talking To Washington Politicians On A Daily Basis To Encourage Them To Extend A Loan To The Detroit Automobile Manufactures To Ensure That Hundreds-Of-Thousands Of American Worker Jobs Stay In Tac And The Auto maufasctures Are Givven The Same Opporunitinty As The Wall Street Banks To Suceed. One-In-Ten Jobs In America Depends On The Auto Industry. Is It Essentail That The American Auto Industry Survive And Strive. Give Them The Loan. Period! In The 10:00 A.M. (EST) Hour, Chris Markowski, The Watch Dog On Wall Steet, Joins Harry To Talk About The Big Three Auto makers As They Make Their Way To Washington D.C. Once Again To Convince The Congress & Senate That Giving Them A $25 Billion Dollar Loan Is Necessary To Their Survival. Below Is A Letter That The Car Concerns Office Is Sending To Members Of U.S. Congress And The Senate: John, On my radio talk show, Car Concerns, I am covering the "BIG 3" efforts to obtain the $25 Billion Dollar Loan from the American Tax Payers. We, the U.S. Taxpayers, have just bailed out AIG and others for Billions. We have gave a $700 Dollar Bailout to Wall Street Banks and Financial Instititions. Just last week we gave Billions more to Citi Bank. The majority of my callers were enraged that this bail-out took place on the second try. I did not observe any of the CEO's of these financial firms coming before Congress to be grilled and humiliated like the Automobile Executives were. It's as though the Bankers made a phone call to the U.S. Treasury and got the funds that they needed printed up. In defense of the American Automobile Manufactures I think that it would be a horrible mistake not to give Chrysler, Ford, and General Motors this Government backed loan. There is so much at stake. These CEO's took my que to take a page out of Lee Iacocca's Chrysler Revival plan as he cut his salary to $1.00 A Year until he got Chrysler back in the black. I was on my way back from the L.A. Auto Show a couple of weeks ago and I paid close attention to the disrespectful ways the these Auto Executives were treated like small children. Time is money and for a member of Congress to take the time to film the Auto Corporate Jets making their way to Washington D.C. was child-like actions. I would expect our Governmet officals to act in a more mature nature. As an Award Winning New Car Dealer myself I often took private jets to and from Auto Meetings and Auctions to save money and time! If giving the Big Three is not in the cards, lets give every man and woman 21 and over a brand new vehicle. That would help the Auto Makers and the Great American Motorist. Now I here that Nancy Pelosi wants a new $500 Billion Stimulus package that is full of Pork like the last $700 billion to help the American Citizen. The first $700 Billion has done nothing for the American Consumer as the banks kept it for themselves. Last, but surely not least, I would like to ask you to introduce a bill to give the American New Car Dealers a stimulus package of the same magnitude. The New Car Dealers that I have talked to in recent weeks are afraid that they cannot hang on for much longer because they can't get loans for their customers. Also several told me that the lending institutions that hold their floorolans have gave them 30 to 90 days to pay-off these multi-million dollar floor-pan loans. If the Government wants to do a constuctive thing, hold the floor-plan on U.S. delaerships and charge them interst rate that is equal to a half-of-a-percentage point over prime. Talking about a return on the Tax-Payers money! I would like invite you to come into the studio and sit in on Car Concerns with me. Talking to the retail automotive consumer can give you a great prespective on want the consumer is feeling out there. Chrysler and General Motors provide me with a different brand new vehicle to drive every week.I can testify that these American Auto manufactures are producing great American Automobiles that are World Class. To say they are anything less is just plain wrong! Have You Drove A General Motors Chevrolet Malibu Lately? Please Do! Harry Douglas Car Concerns harry@carconcerns.com read less

Washington D.C. Is The Target And Yes Harry Will Fly The Car Concerns Jet Into Reagan National Airport To Attend The Hearings Of The Big Three CEO"s Who Are Reporting To The Media That They Are Their Product Driving To The Capitol. Yea Right! From The Detroit News: Separately, a top House Democrat today called for the Big Three CEOs to resign one day before they submit their plans to Congress. Automakers want Congress to approve $25 billion in emergency loans next week when they return to session. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., said Monday at a press conference that the top executives should step down. "If I had my way, all three of those guys would be in the unemployment line and I think that ought to be one of the conditions for us doing this," he told reporters, according to an Associated Press account. "We need to have new leadership. That's what we would do if we had this kind of failure on a football field. We would be getting a new coach -- sometimes a new athletic director. ...We need to clean house with these guys and bring in new people." Okay Senator, That's Grand Standing. If You Have The Nerve To Call-Down These CEO's Of These Respected Automobile Manufactures For Poor Performance, Then I For One Think That Standard Should Stand For All Congress And Senate Representatives. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., You Should Be Held In The Same Light. If You And Your Senate Members Had Been Good Stewarts Of Wall Street And The American Economy In General All Of This Would Have Never Happened. How Many Wall Street CEO's Did You Demand Step Down. None? The CEO's On Wall Street That Quit Jumped Ship With Golden Parachutes And You Did Nothing. Makes Me Wonder. You Are Calling On These Automobile Executives To Step Down. Senator, IHarry Is Asking You To Step Down For The Same Raesons That You Use To Ask The Detroit CEO's To Step Down! Harry Will Also Be Talking To Key Government Officials, Congress, And Senate Reps About Money For The New Car Dealers Of The USA. All Of The Debacale On Wall Street Has Ran Amuck Through The Whole Economy. Dealers Cannot Get Credit For The Retail Automotive Consumer And The Dealerships Floorplan Lenders Are Asking Dealers To Pay-Off Their Floorplan. That Is Millions And Millions For each Dealership. Many Dealers Won't Survive. Harry Is Out To Stop It As The United States New Car Dealer Network Employees Millions Of Employee's And Ther Is Noway This Country Can Afford To Have This Happen As The USA Slips Into A Deep Recession. If You Are A New Car Dealer, Please Join Me In The Cause Of Saving The American Automobile Retail System. harry@carconcerns.com Harry Car Concerns P.O.

Now I Know Warren Buffet Is One Of The Smartest Business Greats Of Our Times Because Today He Told The Detroit Auto Makers What I Have Been Telling Them Since 2005 About Their Sale Woe's. Billionaire Investor Warren Buffett Said That U.S. Automakers Chrysler, Ford, & General Motors Need A New Business Model To Better Compete, Whether It Takes Bankruptcy Or A Government Bailout To Achieve Congressional Approval To Move Forward. If You Have Listened To Car Concerns For The Past Few Years I Have Been Telling Car Concerns Listeners, Guest, Journalist, And Auto Excutives That It's Not The Vehicles That Detroit Produces That Have Sent Sales Volume Falling To New Lows. It's The Auto Retail Process. Rick, Bob, And Alan...You Build Some Great Vehicles. It's The Retail Automotive Purchasing Process. It's Outdated And It Is The Single Reason That Your Retail Automotive Consumer Would Rather Do Anything, Heart By-Pass Surgery, Wisdom Teeth Removal, Even A Colonoscopy, Than To Spend The Time Required To Strike A Deal For The Privilege Of Automobile Ownership. The Retail Automotive Model That Is Still In Play Today That Requires Long, Grueling Trips To The Dealerships And Humiliating Negotiations For Terms And Payments Is As Outdated As The Mayflower On The Oceans Today. The Washinton Politicans Need To Stop Playing Around With the Detroit Auto Makers And Give Them The Same Treatment That They Offered AIG, Goldman-Sachs, And Today...Citi Bank. Nothing needs to be said... Ford, Chrysler and GM's contributions after 9/11 An interesting commentary...You might find this of interest: 'CNN Headline News did a short news listing regarding Ford and GM's contributions to the relief and recovery efforts in New York and Washington. The findings are as follows..... 1. Ford- $10 million to American Red Cross matching employee contributions of the same number plus 10 Excursions to NY Fire Dept. The company also offered ER response ! team se rvices and office space to displaced government employees. 2. GM- $10 million to American Red Cross matching employee contributions of the sam e number and a fleet of vans, suv's, and trucks. 3. Daimler Chrysler- $10 million to support of the children and victims of the Sept. 11 attack. 4. Harley Davidson motorcycles- $1 million and 30 new motorcycles to the New York Police Dept. 5. Volkswagen-Employ ees and management created a Sept 11 Foundation, funded initial with $2 million, for the assistance of the children and victims of the WTC. 6. Hyundai- $300,000 to the American Red Cross. 7. Audi-Nothing. 8. BMW-Nothing. 9. Daewoo- Nothing. 10. Fiat-Nothing. 11. Honda- Nothing despite boasting of second best sales month ever in August 2001 12. Isuzu- Nothing. 13. Mitsubishi-Nothing. 14. Nissan-Nothing. 15. Porsche-Nothing. Press release with condolences via the Porsche website. 16. Subaru- Nothing. 17. Suzuki- Nothing. 18. Toyota-Nothing despite claims of high sales in July and August 2001. Condolences posted on the website Whenever the time may be for you to purchase or lease a new vehicle, keep this information in mind. You might want to give more consideration to a car manufactured by an American-owned and / or American based company. Apart from Hyundai and Volkswagen, the foreign car companies contributed nothing at all to the citizens of the United States ... It's OK for these companies to take money out of this country, but it is apparently not acceptable to return some in a time of crisis. I believe we should not forget things like this.
