Detroit Auto Show 2010?

Anyone attending the public show: 2010 North American International Auto Show: The 2010 Show: Public Show

Looks like Denso will be there so we might get some spark plug questions answered.

Big unknown - will smart USA be there with an ED?

I will be there, My mother is in the market for a new ride (not a Smart) and she asked me to take her.
Smart USA was there last year, I can only assume they will also be there this year. If they bring anything cool I will be sure to post some pictures.

That might be a nice day trip. Only about 3 hour drive for me, and tickets are only $12. I might just have to plan a trip......

I'm planning on going. Buddy of mine works for airline so I travel for almost free. Hotel rooms are pretty cheap up in Detroit too.

We're planning on going to Geneva in March!

Going to the Chicago Auto Show next month, smart'll be there, and I'll try out a new recording style for my smartLife vLog.

GM, Ford look to build on success at show

Quote:
The Big Three U.S. carmakers have been in firefighting mode for so long that it is easy to imagine they are doomed to eternal crisis management, like Sisyphus rolling his boulder up the hill, only for it to roll down again.

But even as they emerge from one of the industry's worst years ever, the companies have gotten more of their boulders to stay on top of their hills. That creates an opportunity for Ford and General Motors to go on the offensive in the U.S. market. (More about Chrysler in a moment.)
