THE RE-MANUFACTURING OF AMERICA Wishful Thinking?
"America Reworks The Auto Industry And Saves The World!" What a headline!
Just imagine the 1937 Hartman Cadillac --- “The Electric Hartman”… commuting down the interstate! What a show stopper! Sell the world over with Style! NOT the DORK-mobiles designed to fail.
Select the world’s favorite old race course cars --- “The Electri-Courseman” --- WOW the people over, with eye popping style! Tease them with the titles. "D’Lectric-D’Livery" VANS made from the thirties thru fifties classic delivery vans… "If you only took the gasoline and fumes from the daily commute…." JUST THINK!
Everyone wants to do Mexican these days --- make a “La Caballera-Vaquera” Tex-Mex for “MS Cowgirl”. What is a La Caballera-Vaquera? First you take the front of a Cadillac XLR, blend that with the back of an El Camino, then shrink-wrap it to the size of an SUV… OOPS, wait… it’s not an SUV… It’s a "L.U.V.", "A Ladies Utility Vehicle…" The La Caballera-Vaquera… sleek and sexy… with a sassy chassis. Special features could include a lengthened trunk area with a light-weight cover for the back, instead of a trunk lid, instead of a tailgate that drops down, have a pair of rear doors that look like the swing out doors on the back of a Suburban, so the lady won’t have to soil her clothes leaning over that dirty, dusty ol’ tailgate. Removable “T” tops keeps it cool and hot. Made all electric, for the modern day lady, with a very sporty vehicle. A real Cowgirl Cadillac. Even make an EUV... Electric Utility Vehicle, from the grossly fuel consumming vehicles of today
Reinvent the Thirty-Deuce Coupe modernized with today’s necessary gadgets… call it the "Electri-Cute… !"
Let OPEC sit on their oil --- sell spare parts till the market can reinvent itself “Again”. Remember this Electric Car Technology has been around since Henry Ford (the first one) was a young man… so this is nothing new! Build a 57 Chevy… A Dodge Charger (call it the Electro Charger)… make a ‘64Mustang (call it the E-Stang!)try the original T-Bird... make it an E-Bird. COME-ON!!! Wake up! Be creative again--- Re-Awaken the creative stylings of the Thirties… and the artistic spirit of the late forties and fifties.
The ol’ ’49 Mer-Cruzer… could become the Electri-Cruzer. The famous GTO could be the ETO---
Why isn’t the world demanding this??
Because the oil corporations are too busy KILLING America! AND everyone is afraid of the OIL CARTEL; threatening the world with disaster…! It’s going to be disastrous when the OIL CARTELS take all your money anyway! There are no crops to damage… no fuel shortages… no food shortages… no wars for fuel… no pollution from drilling oil wells etc.
American Auto executives are so afraid of the oil corporations; they can not see their own future. There are so many countries that pay double what Americans pay for fuel… they would jump through hoops to buy AMERICAN manufactured electric cars… • Made in America. • American Style. • American Quality. • And the Old American Charm… Reinvented. American auto makers have a market so primed to the entire world, thanks to the greed of the oil cartel; they are too scared to take the step… make it a federal law… 50% of all New automobiles licensed and operating on American Interstates and other roadways, will be Electric by 2013… The technology is there… just check a documentary about “who killed the EV-1?” It was Chevy’s or Ford’s all electric car, looked much like the Ford Taurus. It was stylish, handled well, wasn’t excessively noisy, a really good automobile, but didn’t muster the automotive industries breakdown cycle. The manufacturer only leased the EV-1, wouldn’t sell any of the cars, then when the automaker found out the cars were "too efficient", they were all collected and crushed.
Electric powered 190 mile (mileage not speed) “Stylish Commuters” designed after America’s great Autos… Again… Finally… Style becomes the dream. Drive 109 mies to work power at work and drive 190 miles home... made with a light E-85 generator for emergencies... might never need gas. Worried about parts sales? They will come… But first and foremost, America has a great export to re-open American factories… and sell to foreign markets… especially where fuel costs are strangling the world. American workers donate billions to world charities… EMPLOYED Americans… Donate!
Keeping Style as your sale point- you would never run out of customers--- China, where pollution is now strangling their children, Africa, Russia, Europe, Japan, Korea, Canada, South America and even Honduras, Guatemala, the rest of Central America, Mexico and especially THE USA. Stop blinding the world with the oil corporation’s lies--- let the various bio-fuels power our old cars and trucks…We will still need the bi-fuels for a long time… let’s go green over electric.
Re-invent American factories… re-capturing the world’s markets. • Export American cars for a change! • Bring back American business, • Build American products, for American Cars… • With style that will sell the world over! Yes… unfortunately some markets will fall by the wayside… MORE will be created. With all the American jobs going to foreign markets anyway… much of VOTING America could care less. • Recreate other jobs… • Recreate automotive styles--- • Recreate the world markets--- • Keep America employed--- • Keep American jobs in the USA • And American!
Patriotism will keep Auto Manufacturers in American sales, but it’s the world market you want to capture, using style to set the hook, like the Classic 29 Caddy in an electric version. “Cal-Lecrti-Cad”.
How about the lovable 90’s Lincoln Towncar--- The Lincoln Lectricar
The OIL CORPORATIONS are KILLING AMERICA! Be the hero—Get the hospital’s emergency cart--- grab the “Paddles” holler “CLEAR!” and … Shock this ol’ Gal back to life!
The Government will not lose tax $’s from oil revenues--- • Reinvent the usage tax for auto’s… • Electric cars are lighter, will not tear up the roads… • They use no fuel or motor oil to break down the pavement (or contaminate the air, water and soil)… • Plus… all this will save the cost of repairing our old roads • And allow the building of new roads without needing tolls.
Every year people register their cars, trucks, etc--- all the states have to do is add a short piece of legislation and collect road usage tax, right off the vehicles odometer, and file annually with their state taxes! With Electric cars… six or seven cents per mile, is a lot cheaper than thirty to forty cents per mile on gas.
Beyond the tax… American tourism would return because: • America’s money will not be going to fill gas tanks… supporting terrorists. • Transportation costs will come down… lowering the Worlds cost of living. • Costs of all transported goods will come down… Making life easier. • Sales on other less durable goods will go up… because The World can afford it. • All because the greed of oil corporations will not be strangling the world.
Mom and Pop stores will again be able to compete, as tourists stop to see small city America again, driving their new Electric autos. A Win; Win for Everyone, except the terrorists… They wanted to die for their oil… let them keep it.
