The Bush administration has suggested that Ford and GM’s struggles can be easily corrected by building better vehicles. That’s a fair statement for a crew that is chauffeured around in a dated fleet of domestic SUVs, though it doesn't apply to this year’s batch of products. Perhaps it’s time the Secret Service went shopping for some 2007 Cadillac Escalades, in which the President would quickly realize that the quality of his home-grown trucks matches what’s being unloaded by all of those heads-of-state he travels to meet. And taxpayers would like knowing the $55,000 base price is the same as it was in 2006.
