American cars suck.
Hard agree, as an American. Honda and Toyota destroy our local companies in pretty much every regard other than maybe regulation dodging.
Can you even call our local companies "local", they're all assembled and built in mexico anyways.
Now that you mention it, I wouldn't be surprised if Japanese companies manufacture more cars in the US than US-based companies.
Not sure about more, but I remember a story from a while ago that Honda or Toyota had the only NASCAR car entirely manufactured in the US.
My brother works for one of those “local” companies and was still calling it local even though he had half a dozen plants in Mexico he was responsible for tooling up
Ford is one of them that actually majorly is in the US. Fuck Dodge though
Dodge! I love their looks, but they've had disproportionately bad transmission problems since I was a kid. :)
Preach. Some of the worst engineering in the industry over the last 40+ years.
Americans are 100% aware of this. I've never owned an American car in my life.
Not if we ban all the competition! Capitalists hate competition.
