I'm guessing you haven't turned on a TV or seen a newspaper in the last 6 months.

If your dad is saying that "everyone loves Chevy" then it's probably because he loves Chevy. But, given the current situation, I highly doubt that that's the current mindset of the general population...

Those who know cars love GM because of their quality and reliability plus they're American. Those who think they know cars love imports because of the misconception of quality and reliability.

I guess its plausible if kids live under rocks nowadays. Seriously - the media has taken GM out back and flogged it so bad that I find it hard to see how a 14 y/o with any interest in cars can think that everybody loves GM.

Especially right now, you'll find a lot of people saying European or Asian models surpass anything coming out of the US. That's their prerogative, but a lot of it is based on a stereotype formed years ago, and perpetuated by the media.

The fact is, GM, and its other American counterparts make some of the highest quality, class-leading vehicles on the road.

Also, anyone with any patriotism feels a bias towards American auto manufacturers. Between Ford, Chrysler, and GM, its more of how you were brought up, or what you've heard through the grapevine.
