It must be the grand plan to make Iran walk or ride mules, because the alliance between GM and PSA is not about reducing over-capacity. This is what PSA told just-auto today. Confessed a PSA spokeswoman:
“We do have some over-capacity in Europe – around 20% over-capacity. The alliance is not here to tackle this problem – each company will tackle this problem – GM and Opel/Vauxhall will deal with the problem on its side. Regarding plants, we say the life of a plant is linked to the life of products we make.”
That makes us sleep better, because we had been racking our brains to see how joining one company that is bursting with over-capacity to another company that is bursting with over-capacity will reduce over-capacity. Now we know: It won’t.
I was enjoying a nice Mexican lunch when I stumbled on your photo for this article. I’ve lost my appetite.
That’s the idea: Lose weight ….
I like it for a play.
More to hug and less bonny :)
Give me the Indian Guyanese one on the far right.
Not sure how or why anyone doubted the alliance will resolve over capacity. If they read the press release when it was announced more than a month ago…
“(The Alliance) does not replace either company’s ongoing independent efforts to return their European operations to sustainable profitability.”
I agree with alluster. I thought this was about parts sharing. Who thought it would be about capacity?
Nice going, Bertel….effective tomorrow, our webmaster has been instructed to make TTAC verboten through my companies’ web-filter. You pushed it too far once too often, mate. This is the last time, regrettably, that you’ll get clicks from me…..
MacDaddy, signing off.
Well, ya shouldn’t have let him see it.
Use it at home, unless you filter this as well.
Open proxy server. Find one, or set one up yourself.
I bought a t1.micro instance on Amazon EC2, set up Squid on a Linux VM and firewalled access from everywhere except my corporate LAN. End of problem.
Sounds like some members of your company are a bit up-tight. Perhaps they need to spend some time with a woman of ample proportions?
Yeah… I knew Educator Dan is in heaven when I saw that photo. Anyway, those are some pretty BBW.
Do you think GM wants to put that 24 hour le Mans, Peugeot diesel engine into the Corvette?
Carrying those ladies as passengers will definitely bring your car to over capacity.
I’d hit that.
I’m in lust. Big cars and big women do it to me everytime. Finally TTAC brings both them together for me.
So many to choose from but I’ll go with the blond standing on the right.
Sweet dreams little puppy.
