But now all of the American car companies are the same.
Other big car companies may also be looking to get out of the business.
In the first cases, the car companies built something worth talking about.
The car companies have already received $17 billion from the federal government.
The question now is: What will the car companies do?
Car companies get a huge amount of attention in our culture.
I don't see a car company asking you to make a commercial.
But its market share has dropped the most of any car company.
That's how many car companies there were 90 years ago.
Too bad there are not more small car companies left to take heart at this news.
