Actually in times like this, R&D is the best place to put your money. If you don't keep up with tech or have anything new or up to date or exciting to sell when things turn around, you might as well just flush yourself down the toilet.

The problem here lies the fact that most of the OG Scioners here are 5 years into their cars, and will be looking for a replacement before 2011 hits the floors.
Kia is rolling out the Soul and the C competitor ( name slips my mind ).
Nissan will have the Cube out by then.
I voiced my opinion to those in charge, and they said not to worry, 2010 is going to be a great year full of surprises. SURPRISE! not only is the tC going to be made for another year, but the replacement wont be out for at least another year if not longer. fail.

The Kia one is the Koup (I think that's what they called it). It looks like a Civic though - the front at least.
And the Soul really isn't that bad. The Sport model isn't too bad and would have to be the one I got if I were to consider.
