Ford, GM, and FCA are all shutting down. Most foreign manufacturers are shutting their plants here. The ones that haven't will probably have to idle within a few days because of parts shortages (suppliers, both here and abroad, are shutting down, too).

I'm more interested in seeing how quickly any of them can spool up and knock out ventilators.

In terms of cars and prices...maybe there won't be any new cars for me to buy when we get there. Maybe plenty of used ones to choose from. So much uncertainty sitting on so much world-changing, life-altering unknowns about the future.

I agree that car sounds nasty and maybe that’s color in my thinking about my own car. Oh well.

I don't follow very closely, but it looks like there are a lot of aftermarket exhaust options for non-NPP cars.
