Complete BS!! People buy cars for all sorts of reasons! Some for styling, cost, its what their daddy always bought, function, or just simply to keep up with the Jones'. My first car was a 1980 camaro I bought in '96 for a grand. It ran but I wanted to build a motor for it and I did. The styling appealed to me and also at sixteen, it was cheaper to fix up and easier to build with limited mechanical knowledge by myself a good 'ol 350 parts are a dime a dozen for it. My dad was kind of disappointed at my decision because he was a mopar guy (he had a green '69 charger among other mopars). While I was growing up, the Fords in the family were always broken so I wouldn't go that route. I always prefered the styling of all gm products, trucks and cars over any other manufacturer. I guess that I am just an ignorant American because I wanted something that "I" could be proud of spending my hard earned money I got washing dishes at a local restaurant. Something that I put together piece by piece to satisfy MY wants and needs I must be selfish too. I knew at that time that the money I spent on that car went right to another hard working American families that that manufactured those parts. Those that may eat at the restaurant that I worked at so that my boss could still afford to pay me to work there. A lot of rambling but it makes sense to me! Buy American!!
