If they were completely abandoned they would have gone under before 2008. They simply didn't produce anything that people wanted; or thought it would fall apart.
My step dad had an exploder, engine and tranny went at different times while the car was on a 36 month lease. Do you think my parents were enthusiastic about buying another American car after that? It took me a fair amount of time to convince my mother to look at Caddy's, eventually she did and bought one, but if that thing ever breaks I doubt ANY of the the big 3 will see my parent's money ever again. It only takes ONE screw up for someone not to buy product from you, and the big 3 has done it on more than one occasion.
Me on the other hand; well I can't wait to get my CTS
