OK... see you got that one?

False. If your company is looking like a soup sandwich, you will derive tangible improvements from focusing on your processes. Obviously there is something you aren't doing right or you wouldn't be so fucked up.

True, but some are so fucked up that they don't know how to properly implement process improvements. They'll do something that probably won't work, then bury the true results (i.e., nothing) under a pile of crunched numbers that don't tell the story.

Of course you shouldn't need the latest buzzword beat off to tell you that. What you need are new managers.

New managers won't be much help if they continue to manage what they inherit. If they effectively implement beneficial process changes, it's a good move. But the managers they replaced could've probably done the same thing in many cases.

Btw, lean and six sigma are all the rage in DoD, at least in my little corner of it. I think they suck donkey balls.

Replies like that are completely FUCKING RETARDED. I've built and rebuilt more fucking cars than you could even comprehend, Coods. Hell, the very fact that you use the term "Cuda" as your screen name desecrates one of the BADDEST and most celebrated musclecars of that era of pure unbridled horsepower in the late 60s/early 70s. If I were a boards mod I'd ban your bitch ass for that alone.

Seriously, forget all the BS being spewed in here by self-proclaimed "mechanics" and "car experts": Buy a HONDA or a TOYOTA and never worry about shit. American cars are piles of shit for the most part. All you have to do is drive one with 30K on it and you can tell it's doomed.

There you go: drive an American car with 30-50K on it in your price range.

Then drive a similarly priced and driven Japanese car. That should make up your mind in about two seconds.

That MIGHT have been true.....about TWENTY FIVE MOTHERFUCKING YEARS AGO.

I'd put ANY GM/Ford/Chrysler car/truck built in this country up against ANY foonge-face made car/truck used and abused under the same conditions and not only would it last just as long, but if/when it DID break down it would be FAR cheaper to repair. This simply cannot be refuted by anybody, PERIOD.

25 years ago jap cars were better. 25 months ago, they were better.

The domestic brands have closed the gap....some. But it still exists.

You did finish off with 1 true statement. Jap car parts tend to be more expensive. probably has to due with the fact that you don't have to replace as many.

I really wish american cars were better, as I am sure most on this board do. But wishing ain't gonna make it so.

Lets hope this new malibu lives up to the hype. I think it might. When they're backs are to the wall, americans generally do step up. And the US auto industry is so fukking tight up against that wall, it's gonna be on the other side of it soon.

Post total smack is ghey, unless the poster in question has:

1. Well over 10,000 posts here in the 2+ years this place has been in existence
2. Averages more than 20 posts per day
3. Never seems to shut the fuck up
4. Has nothing redeeming to offer 90% of the time, yet still won't shut the fuck up

If someone has something valid to say (at least most of the time), then there's no reason to run post total smack. But if they're a chatty cathy windbag, it's totally warranted.

Oh, and the only people who whine about post total smack being ghey, 'cept for you in this case, are those with high post totals. Coincidence? I think not.

War reading more and posting less.

What does the best NFL analyst on ESPN have to do with this topic?

Don't worry, Paul. Soon enough, somebody much smarter than you will come around here and get it.

Despite R-Lames assertions to the contrary, this has been a very interesting topic with many varied viewpoints strongly and eloquently expressed. RACK this minefield of a thread.

I especially enjoyed this:

Of course the topic starter was asking about USED vehicles and has a spending limit, and then posted a reminder of that very fact later on in this same thread, but don't let that stop you.

If it wasn't for tarp wearing seam busters like you barreling along completely oblivious to everything and everyone around him, this place would have a lot fewer train wrecks to watch.

Yeah....any male that claims ownership to one of those hideous excuses for a TRUCK has to proudly display their big-ass rainbow decal prominently in the rear window. You are a FAGGOT if you own one of those things, plain and simple.

if you don't care about used malibus, then why bother responding to a post about used malibus in a thread asking about used cars? you're coming off like someone who goes to a jazz festival and starts telling people how good "high school musical" was. sure, they're remotely related to each other in that they're both music but nobody's there to hear anybody talk about it, especially you.

nice tantrum, though. as much of a failure as you are in sticking to the topic (or a diet for that matter), you almost never fail in losing whatever composure you have when you enter a thread. i've heard it said that intelligent people can debate two sides of a topic in a civilized manner while ignorant hicks resort to raising their voices and puffing out their chests* when cornered by facts. thank you for being exhibit "A."

* yeah, i know. it was the coat.

Do I REALLY have to spell it out for you?

Yep, I'm American. Dins and e just made me laugh up a gasket...

I've sold pretty much all there is other than high-line cars. Chevy nailed the Avalanche and Ford nailed the F-250. The rest is pure crap. Camrys show up ready to go. Chevys show up with knobs falling off. Pretty damn simple. Just not simple enough for Missouri I guess.

Well, 'cept fer one-nut. He gets it...

I think it has more to do with making the best of the situation. I'm not exactly a Stewart fan. But knowing that if he wins the Championship next year driving a Toyota, that it will piss off every inbred sporting a Calvin pissing on a #24 sticker on their car makes it a whole lot more bearable. Ya dig?

Sudden Sam wrote:Toss Rev's opinion(s) out the window first of all. If he thinks a Dodge Caliber is a well-built vehicle, he's dumb as a brick.

The build quailty of Chrysler products got WAY better after Daimler-Benz took them over. I'd have no problem whatsoever owning a Chrysler product because of that. Like I said Sam, I know more about cars/trucks that you or anybody else on this board. It's not even debatable.

If Rev's manhood is determined by what he drives, that's sad. But I'm not shocked. I guess it's manly to be seen working on your vehicle all the time, huh, Rev?

Sam, I NEVER work on my vehicles unless I'm upgrading something on them. But if you say so, I guess I SHOULD feel manly for installing my new Alpine CD/MP3/iPod/HD Radio receiver in my Sierra Z71 over the weekend.

That why you like American stuff?

I told you why I like American stuff....because it IS built as good if not BETTER than what the flange-faces put out, and because I'm not into contributing to costing fellow Americans their jobs by buying that fucking shit. Oh, and you cocksuckers can C&P all the fucking bullshit you want about how Japenese car companies have plants here in the US and you think that just makes everything A-OK but at the end of the day their profits STILL go overseas and isn't funneled back into our economy. If you still fail to figure that out then I really feel sorry for you. In the meantime you will NEVER EVER get me to buy a Japanese car/truck if my life depended on it.

Why do you hate america, you fat bastard?

The Krauts look a lot more like us than the Japs do.

What do you fukks think about the fusion? It is based on the mazda 6. I kinda like the looks of it and it can be had with the mazda based 4 banger with 5 speed tranny. That engine is pretty well thought of when used in mazdas.

I think it might have to do with their food.

Jap=fish and seaweed

Kraut=fat laden sausage, taters, and other stuff that will keep you from looking like nicole richie.

When nothing else works, ALWAYS go to the fat smack. Even where it's NOT applicable.

Sudden Sam wrote:Rev,

I have no problem whatsoever with your liking American products. But to suggest that American car companies are building vehicles at a level even near the quality of Japanese vehicles shows that you don't have a clue what you're talking about.

No, you obviously don't know more about cars and trucks than everyone on this board. If you did, you'd know that the build quality and dependability of American products is nowhere near that of the Japanese companies.

Sad, but true.

You couldn't be more WRONG, but I'll never convince you otherwise.

Laughable to see Paul deny being FAT considering the photo evidence that has already been posted by others.

Logical for Paul to not deny being a FUCKING RETARD when he himself has posted such voluminous evidence of same.

Goobs,
You'd have an easier time convincing mvscal that blacks are superior to whites in every way, than you would getting RevTard to comprehend his own stupidity.
