I used to feel guilty buying a Japanese car, not anymore.
Japan thanks you....of course the 200, ooo GM employees who no longer have jobs since 1993 don't like you much.
There was a time when buying an American car meant all of the part in the car were American made also.
Nafta changed all of that. So Amercian car components are imported from every place on the planet.
Just like illegal immigration American Cars have Illegal Immigration Parts making them not really American Cars anymore.
When that happened all bets were off on buy American and I also used to feel guilty buying a Japanese car, not anymore.
I will never buy anything from CHINA.
"I used to feel guilty buying a Japanese car, not anymore."
Back in the early 80's I was doing a business out of my car and I knew that I needed to get a truck. So whenever I saw someone with a light truck I stopped to ask the owner how the truck was. Toyoto's got the highest marks. 2 owners said that their trucks had over 200k miles on them with no troubles. Mazda didn't get the accolades the Toyoto's did but I knew it would be better the Ford S10.
Bought a Mazda (took up payments) from a customer and that truck was fantastic. Never let me down.
I'm not into cars as much as I used to be but my wife and I now will only buy either a Honda or a Toyoto. I wish Detroit made cars with the same quality.
