[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] People feel clever dumping on the American auto industry instead of appreciating how important it is to our economy, our military security, our technological advancement, supporting the advertising business, big money small businesses (dealerships) in small-town America, etc. [/quote] We can appreciate the importance of the industry but still not choose to patronize them becuase they produce poor quality, unexciting vehicles.[/quote] That's an opinion. Here's mine. Globalization has resulted in the US losing so many good paying manufacturing jobs that it's resulted in phenomena like DJT. I'd rather have a boring car than an "exciting" political environment and a lack of good jobs for people who aren't well suited or interested in college. I think you should try Detroit cars before you judge. You may not ever have owned one. It's too convenient for people to keep whining about 40-50 years ago as though nothing has changed since then.[/quote] I have. We owned a Chevrolet made in Detroit (Hamtramck fatory). The interior materials were cheap; the infotainment system interface was poorly done; and the fit on one of the doors was poor, compared to our Audi of a similar year and price. Maybe it's the engineers and designers -- the people on the line certainly aren't choosing what materials to use for the interior. Look at the latest Corvette, which I'd say is great value for what you get, but there's that weird interior design with the long set of buttons running right down the side. There's a reason no other car is like that -- it's a poor design.[/quote]
