I had American cars from the 60's and 70's and I don't see what all the fuss was about.
Apparently you never drove the 1977 Chevette.

Second, think about what happened to the US auto industry after everyone started buying all the Japanese crap. Millions of workers out of work and everything int eh country turning to crap.
Competition from the Japanese made the American auto industry better.

Buying things from overseas is like slitting your own throat. But, as a country we are just to ignorant to see it.
Buy American or move out.
You mean Love it or leave it??? Haven't heard this BS since the Vietnam War.
I had a buddy that had a Chevette and he loved it. Never had any trouble with it he couldn't fix himself. I was a big car guy myself. The smallest thing I ever had was a 78 Mercury Zephyr Z7 coupe. It had the 302 engine and I modified to make it perform better. I loved that car and miss it. So much simpler then things are now. Perfect? No. But, there is nothing wrong with crank up windows.
Ford is the only American manufacturer left. I'm not sure about GM. The rest are gone.
The move out comment was over the edge. I'm sorry for that. But, I still do my research and buy a American made product when I can. It's hard to do these days though. Very little is made here anymore.
