GT Legend Automotive Holdings Inc. develops and markets innovative products for the automotive aftermarket. In addition to converting gasoline-powered vehicles into electric hybrids, GT Legend also offers body kits for retrofitting Ford Mustang classic cars and high-end, aftermarket wheels.

The company anticipates that its conversion kits will likely become its principle business segment. In hundreds of hours of testing, this patent-pending kit has proven its ability to increase gas mileage, extend engine life, reduce harmful emissions and boost horsepower. At commercial production levels, the company anticipates pricing its electric conversions at less than $7,000.

One way or the other, the fate of the Big Three will have serious implications for the overall

The private jets were the last straw. I speak of the chosen mode of transportation for the “Big Three” automaker CEOs last week. When the heads of GM, Ford and Chrysler made their trek to Washington, they did so in the style of fat cats. They should have flown coach.

I’m serious.

Flying coach would have been little more than a gesture, sure. But it would have said something at least. It would have shown that these knuckleheads aren’t completely tone-deaf. But they are tone deaf. They’re crap at the little things.

And in the end, it’s really all about the little things. When you add up all the little things, you get a big impact.

Take Honda, for example. Did you know Honda is in the soybean business? As Forbes tells it, “Honda couldn’t brook the sight of the shipping containers
