I am getting sick and tired of Mazda getting the shaft when it comes to being mentioned as a prominent Japanese auto manufacturer.
I picked up an issue of The Economist which is a respected and interesting magazine because it featured an article about how American auto manufacturers are dying.
Within the first few paragraphs, they mention how American companies need to take cues from Japanese auto manufacturers to improve their methods and business. And guess what? They write about Honda, Toyota, and Nissan. Not ONE freaking mention of Mazda.
Perhaps Mazda doesn't do as much business around here as the other three, but please. Any amount of research will turn up the fact that Mazda has become a model for how to run a car company - from their innovative engine design to their business model that has never failed to produce a profit, even when both the Japanese and American economies are in the dumps.
Rar.
