And yet I've read where the foreign automakers have steadily increased sales in the US, even recently. IMO there are more or less only a handful of domestic models on the market right now that measure up. The US automakers are carrying alot of union baggage and legacy around, much like an anchor around ones neck in an ocean full of sharks. Even if their design and quality were equal to the foreign competitors, I'm afraid they've lost so much brand loyalty that it will be very hard to regain it.
Does this mean Cal that you don't care for Palin, as her husband is a union man?? I disagree about the quality of American cars,there are lots around with 2-300K on them and still going. Of course perception is everything.
Her husband being a member of a union is not one of the many things I admire about her, although we don't know the details of if he had to join. Does this mean that she has your support since her husband's a "union man"? If you can find any reliability reports with the majority of top models being domestic, let us know. With, if I remember right, something to the extent of over $1100 of union baggage and lifelong legacy commitments alloted per vehicle, domestic automakers have to cut corners and scrimp wherever they think they can get away with it.
