It doesn't matter what the Chinese market will buy in regards to our tow vehicles. North America is a big enough market to have multiple truck brands like Chevrolet, GMC, Ram Ford, Nissan, Toyota, and Honda with vehicles specific to our market and still be profitable. Heck, I would wager that a few other foreign truck brands could also join in if they built a factory here like Nissan, Toyota, and Honda did and make vehicles we actually want instead of just small trucks.

Toyota and Nissan and Honda build those vehicles in the US to get around the tariffs, which drove the rest away. It's easy to be competitive if you have a 25% advantage right from the get go.

Oh so True. Anyway the Global market is 100 million vehicles and those manufacturers who do not sell in the US, are making profits or huge profits elsewhere. Reason VW, Toyota then currently Renault/ Nissan / Mitsubishi are 1, 2, 3 Globally with GM 4th, Ford is 5th or 6th
