I don't know if any of you saw the Saturday night skit on this but it was hilarious-- how they tried to carpool- but the Caddy fell apart-- then the Chrysler's brakes went out and so on...
Hell of a note- when the Automaker CEO's have to ride in their own products... Times must really be tough :roll: :wink: :lol: :lol:

GM says CEO will drive to Washington
DETROIT (AP) -- This time, GM Chief Rick Wagoner will drive a company car to Washington instead of flying by corporate jet as he seeks a government bailout, a spokesman says.
Wagoner will drive in a Chevrolet Malibu hybrid sedan when he makes the 520-mile trek from Detroit to Capitol Hill, General Motors Corp. spokesman Tony Cervone said Tuesday.
Ford Motor Co. CEO Alan Mulally also is traveling by car from Detroit for his second appearance before two legislative committees as the Detroit automakers seek $25 billion in government loans. Chrysler LLC CEO Robert Nardelli will not travel by corporate jet. A spokeswoman says his travel plans will remain secret for security reasons.
All three executives are returning to Congress for hearings on Thursday and Friday. They are seeking the bailout loans to help them through the recession and the worst sales downturn in 25 years.
Lawmakers criticized the CEOs last month for traveling in separate private jets to seek the loans.
