[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When was the car made solely in the USA? 75-100 years ago? 
They aren’t made here. 
Who cares? I buy what is a good investment. [/quote]

I bought a Chevy Cruz brand new in 2017 and it was not yet built. It was just built in the OHIO plant close enough to Gaithersburg MD I got a call it is on truck and was there next day at dealership.  Literally I had car withing a day or two of being built.

My Hyundai was was held up in the Shipping and Port and Customs for weeks while awaiting delivery in 2022

It anything Democratic Foreign Car buyers of last 20-40 years created Trump in a weird way. All those high paid union jobs disappeared and created angry people in fly over country    [/quote]

To keep those union jobs the American people pay $25,000-$30,000 more per new car. It is long past time to remove tariffs on cars and reduce prices.

I do not give a sh#t about maga union members. I really do not want to subsidize them to the tune of $30,000. F them. Car manufacturing including foreign manufacturing operating in the US is 3-4% of GDP. [/quote]

But they were mainly democrats pre you buying cars built in Japan and Germany two counties that tried to kill us all not that long ago.

And don’t be a drama lama I gave my newer foreign car to daughter to drive as has tons of safety features and last year took our oldest American made car to drive to work every day. My 13 year old American car is driven every day to work and somehow manically runs fine. Does it handle like my old BMW, no, is it as cool as my old Mercedes, no, does it get as good mileage as my Camry, no.

Has it been driven every day the last 13 years, yes. All cars are pretty reliable. Some are just more fun or cool [/quote]

So you want to continue to pay 25-30k more for a new car made in the US by union members? LOL No way!

Americans stop buying US manufactured cars in the 1970’s because of poor design, low gas mileage and poor quality. You want everyone to buy an inferior product that is 25-30k more expensive to provide work for union members who hate democrats? At this point that is what US auto manufacturing jobs are- make work. Like the Works Progress Administration during the Great Depression but with no benefits to the country.

WW2 ended 80 years ago. The US, Germany and Japan were allies for almost 80 years till you and Trump went mental. Still I am saying we should allow Chinese made cars in with no tariffs. Think of the impact if a new car(EV or ICE) in this country was 15-30k instead of 48k. Those car are higher quality vs anything built by a US manufacturer. Oh and China was our ally in WW2. So it should be good with you![/quote]
