That's the Gazillion Dollar Question.
I get so fed up with the Foreign Brands being so superior, attitudes of way too many people. Especially many who are much younger than I am. I admit it I am older (59 - if you need to know). I also admit to (in the past) owning Domestic and Foreign Brands.
Bottomline, I have gone back to the Domestic Brands for the past several years. The quality is (at least to me) equal to the competition. So it is a no-brainer. Buy from the Domestic Manufacturers. THese put the dollars into our economy. They provide jobs, they provide health care , they provide taxes to support our way of life.
Whenever, possible, I also tell people about the cars I own. AS I told Soctt back in Chicago, the Impala we own gets great gas mileage. On a recent trip to and from Milwaukee from the Chicago area, I was able to exceed 34 mpg in this car. Scott feigned the obivous response back to me "You mean it wasn't a T***** or an H****?"
Folks, that's a lot of what this is all about. Yes there are a lot of fine automobiles produced by the Nissans, Hondas, Toyotas, and others of this world.
It all boils down to what you get at a given price point. To me the Impala was a tremendous bargain espcially in light of how well it is performing for my family.
Is the CAMARO perfect? Hell, no vehicle is perfect. Because someone is always going to find something they don't like about it. That's reality.
I will say one last thing. I am tickled to death with the new Camaro. I have sat in it, I have examined it from stem to stearn, I have photographed the heck out of it, and I can always find something which isn't perfect about the car. However, for the price at which it is hitting the market, you are not going to find a better performing sporty coupe.
I know this was long winded, but darn it all, I love this Country, and I am dead set on doing whatever I can to ensure it is the Great Nation it should be!
I will now get off my soap box and go stand in the corner!
