Publisher Description: As U.S. and Canadian automakers and dealers face bankruptcy and Toyota battles unprecedented quality-control problems, "Lemon-Aid" guides steer the confused and anxious buyer through the economic meltdown unlike any other car-and-truck books on the market. Phil Edmonston, Canada's automotive "Dr. Phil" for more than 40 years, pulls no punches. In this all-new guide he says: Chrysler's days are numbered with the dubious help of Fiat.Electric cars and ethanol power are PR gimmicks.Diesel and natural gas are the future.Be wary of "zombie" vehicles: Jaguar, Land Rover, Saab, and Volvo.Mercedes-Benz -- rich cars, poor quality.There s only one Saturn you should buy.Toyota -- enough apologies: "when you mess up, 'fess up." |
