It's real simple. Americans want a car that *works* predictably and reliably
for YEARS. Many, if given that choice, would buy AMERICAN vehicles if they
met the criteria.

Sadly, most of the Detroit 3's offerings don't, haven't, and may not ever.

It's hard to remain loyal to any company that costs you regular trips to the
repair shop and hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Some of us don't have that kind of scratch to throw around simply to be
patriotic (putting everything else aside)....

It's sad. But people will buy what works.
