What do you think of automakers discontinuing cars, to focus on trucks/suv's?

Do you think it's a good business decision? It's mainly Ford and GM, by the way.

That seems to be Ford’s basic MO...if you can’t fix it, fuck it 🤷‍♂️

@Zaphod42 Is that why I never see any Ford Prefects on the road these days?

@Zaphod42 Let's face it, discontinuing what people have wanted for at least 42 years is not good business, is it?

@NankerPhelge Ford and GM are losing loyal customers according to this article...

@SubstantialKick I'm not surprised, considering they stopped making their best cars years ago.

@NankerPhelge I guess that may be one reason that Ford/Chrysler/GM cars depreciate like crazy...

@SubstantialKick All the more reason to make more of them, so that they can be replaced easily and people can continue to drive more of the same.
