Why does everybody hate American cars?
I'm a 16 year ol guy and I want to buy my first car. I want a full size pickup or SUV with 4WD for the deep snow. I've asked a few questions like that. I love Ford. I'll ask a question like "Should I get a Lincoln Navigator or Ford F150 for my first car?" and people come back with these really small cars like Civics and Corollas. I will specifically say the reasons I'd rather drive a truck (higher ride height, I fit in it better, they are better in deep snow). There's nothing wrong with Honda and Toyota. I like them just fine. I just want a Ford Truck. Why does everybody say Ford is junk? I know a lot of people who drive Ford and they have not had a single problem. I'll admit small cars get better gas mileage but, where am I going that I should have a car that gets 45+ mpg? I know people with Chevys, Fords, Chryslers, Hondas, and Toyotas. None of the people I know have never had a single problem (other than wear & tear and routine maintainence). Why do people hate American cars so much?
Added (1). Cars like the Ford Focus, C-Max Hybrid, and Fiesta all get over 30 highway.
Because people say they aren't up to par with foreign cars. At least build quality but I've only ever driven american and have had no issues with mine. If I were to suggest a truck from them Id have to go with the Ford Explorer if your buying used (2011 and older). They are nice and have plenty of room.
Many people are just brain washed on economy and ecology and only consider those type of vehicles as worthy of praise. In reality the majority of drivers have a much broader view. Most American vehicles are well built, reliable, have great designs and comparable to other models manufactured in Europe and Asia. American made cars include some BMW(3 series), Some Hyundais and some KIA models that are actually manufactured here.
F150 hold its value like no other
- Why would people buy older foreign cars instead of brand new American cars? I see it all the time, people driving 7-8 year old Mercedes or BMWs that they paid probably paid around $20,000. They could of easily gone out and bought a brand new Ford or Dodge, but they didn't. They bought a Mercedes with over 100k miles. All worn and torn on the inside. But aslong as they're shining on the outside I guess.
- Why does Trump hate American car company Ford so much? Ford can't build 1 Billion dollar plant in Mexico and possibly now European car companies will win bids instead.
- Why don't American cars last as long as Japanese cars? My family has owned a Ford Taurus and a Nissan Altima of similar model years. Both cars are still running, but the Taurus has very low mileage (it's a 1999 with only 85,000 miles) and the interior is in horrible condition and the plastics Ford put in have been known for breaking. None of this has happened with the Altima, even though it has more miles. Why?
- Now the thing everybody knew since the beginning has been proven (Christine Ford is a liar) should we believe any woman from here on? Hmm… You know what, i see most women as a potential false accuser now. Gotta sleep with one eye open, gentlemen.
