No, I buy used cars and trucks that were made in America . . .my current ride, a 95 Lebaron was given to me by a caring but slightly mislead ( by the salesman) son.
As for the contempt you claim, how easy is it to make cars that suit everybody all the time everywhere? Be realistic.
Now, compound that with a government influencing enbreasty that doesn't care if you live or die as long as they can restrict the manufacturers and add to the cost of the car, the EPA, who only recently hired their FIRST scientist.
You don't see the connection? We susidized Japan and German back into a financial condition that would have allowed them to survive comfortably . . then we allowed them to move in and produce their products in America, which is now a major portion of their profit margin.
Built like a Mercedes 3656off. was them -- i north sell selling Tell this to the CEO's that you keep defending. working on for runs. Complete Crap. A STRONG smell of BS is filling the room! Exactly...
Just since 1947 when I was born; the Studebaker, De Soto, Plymouth, Packard, Crosley, AMC-Rambler, Nash, Willys, Tucker and Hudson car lines have disappeared, along with maybe a couple I forgot. German, Italian and Japanese vehicles, to name a few, have taken over.
The Whizzer, Mustang, Simplex, and Cushman Motor scooters, along with a couple others, went out of production, taken over by Japanese and Italian scooters.
Look at the problems Harley Davidson had with the Jap bike invasion.
Unions have been allowed to run rampant until they priced employee costs thru the roof.
And NAFTA should never have been pbutted. It sent jobs America needs out of country, and I believe it's a part of the cause of GM and Ford losses and Chrysler now being a German car line.
