Title: Disappointing
Product review: Others have already noted the various factual errors and sweeping generalizations. The thing that really irked me about this book is that its title leads you to believe that most of the reading will be about the US car industry....in fact, you read chapter after chapter about imports, with references to how Detroit compares to the imports.One whole chapter on Camry, one whole chapter on Hyundai/BMW, one whole chapter on the ENTIRE history of Toyota & Honda, etc. gets pretty boring, as I really could do without a complete history lesson of the major import manufacturers. The book should have focused on what has been going on at the Big Three (decisions made, models produced, sales info, market trends, quality/reliability) and how consumer preferences have led to the imports' increased market share in the US......There was just too much emphasis on specific imports with too little relevant content as pertains to the title of the book.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
