A few things happened for the Honda Motor Company this past week…some good and some not so good.  Honda dedicated its first Indiana car assembly plant this past Monday.  That’s really good news. The more cars made in America, the better off for our economy. Then the bad news hit when Honda announced that it would be cutting its North American production by an additional 18,000 vehicles.  These cuts by Honda aer on top of others that were announced earlier this year and this brings the automaker’s total cuts since August to 50,000 units.  Ed Miller, the spokesman for Honda, said that 12,000 of the cuts will be made at a plant in Alabama and 6,000 cuts will be made in Ohio. 

So, unfortunately with the good of Honda’s new assembly plant, there was some bad, but let’s just focus on the positive!
