Seriously, what's a reasonably balanced view of American cars? I mean,
it's a large market, so there's probably a lot of variety, but surely
they can't all be crap? Otherwise you'd be dumb to buy them, right? I
remember taking a fairly old American taxi in Niagara Falls (a few years
ago now), probably an '80s Ford Crown Victoria, and thinking it was a
sweet ride.

Think I was mistaken. It was possibly a Mercury Grand Marquis I rode in.
Definitely American, defintely '80s, and definitely not a Town Car.

Interesting hypothesis (I'm assuming that you're excluding consumable
goods). To turn it around another way, can anyone think of a maker of
crappy "durable" goods that has been in business a long time, and making
crappy goods all that time?

Chris
American auto makers?

Be careful there. There is a lot of Canadian content in crappy American cars. We have
the UAW, you have the CAW and they all are working for companies in distress.

I liked the Ford Ranger pick-um-up I saw the other day plastered with
CAW issued stickers like "out of a job yet - keep buying foreign" "buy
Canadian - keep the jobs in Canada" "CAW - working for you" ad
nauseam! Where do rangers come from??? Hint - they come by sea!

Actually..Ford Rangers come from New Jersy.

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost

I had no idea Google paid that much for ads.

Thanks Ig!
