Has Tesla shown the rest of the world how great American cars are?
It's one of the most talked about cars in the world. Its stock has been steadily growing in the past five years and it is expected to do so into the near future as Tesla is about to release its $35,000 car model.
More than anything, I'm surprised ford, gm, and chrysler have not taken a page from Tesla's success story.
Elon Musk is Canadian… So you expect the best
Tesla is an example of a rich person's toy that is heavily subsidized by working people who pay the taxes for the subsidies but who could never afford a Tesla for themselves. What is there here to cheer about?
I've test-driven a Tesla and I like my "terrible" Hummer better… I like the gas mileage but I want to drive my car, not have a computer do it for me.
I wouldn't be surprised, when the rest of the world was working on vehicles that were safer and more efficient, the big three were giving us, more cupholders.
GM is also doing great.
- 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 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?
- Maguire's Headlight Restoration sucks ***! Do the rest of their products suck *** too? Bought a little kit of that stuff for my aunts 2011 ford fusion and I did every step correctly. (Cleaned, Sanded, then apploed clear coat. Later the next morning, it turned really foggy, worst than the beginning and I tried to remove it with alcohol and that made things worse. After I got all of it off I cleaned it again and apploed the clear coat. SAME THING. It just sucked ***. I recommend you never buy the headlight restoration from maguires. Hope the rest of their products don't suck
