First of all, I OWN A FORD, so don't confuse me with an import owner. Secondly, you list all "facts" based on nothing but what you've read. Please stop wasting valuable posting space and people's time if you have no experience with the cars! Why is that so hard for you to do? I DO NOT care about surveys. I go by what I personally have experienced PERIOD, end of story!!
The posts on this site are only worthy to me if they tell me actual experiences from owners perspective. Someone coming onto every other thread and listing out the same "21st out of 33 car makers" and "J.D. Powers says this or that" tells me NOTHING about actual experience. I don't care if those sources quote from actual experience. If I want to hear from J.D. Powers or Consumer Reports, I will go to their sites!
So for the last time... please quit bashing car brands you haven't owned. It is doing nothing but starting more useless arguments on here that are a waste of everyone's time and really unproductive! THANK YOU!!

First of all, Toyotas and Hondas are not "inferior" products. Saying so doesn't detract from reality.
Secondly, if everyone only bought whatever was produced entirely from domestic sources, that would be the equivalent of a closed economy, which isn't economically feasible, especially given the hodge-podge mixed international component content of the typical car out there. I feel happy in knowing that the Toyotas I buy help American workers that manufactured them.
