Dear GM, this is what happens when you don't let the gov't take over: - Toyota Yaris Forums

I think people are missing a big component that Ford has over GM and Chrysler. That has contributed to their success. Ford has a bigger international market share compared to the other 2. To my understanding Fords in europe are fairly common. GM and Chrysler cant sell anything outside of N.A. that isn't a Corvette or Viper.

Excellent point and correct.

Ford is a global company. GM is mainly a a US company.

BTW, if I was in the market for a a pickup, I would get a Ford.

GM is very much a global company. They were the largest automaker in the world for 77 years straight. You can't do that without being successful worldwide.

GM is China's biggest selling foreign automaker. And china is slightly large.

Are you guy's forgetting Opel and Vauxhall, GM's European brands that contain tons of models that we don't have here?
