Problem is the import taxing... it's not a level playing field. But I'm not trying to debate politics.
Listen... it's simple. I keep a chevy and a ford in my driveway. Why? I have family that work there. It keeps them in jobs and roof over their heads. How would I be able to face my family rolling up in a Honda or Toyota? I might as well take the spoon from them.
Now I'm not an idiot. If you are in shitville or other similar state with foreign brand factories and you have family that works for Toyota or Honda. I will not hold anything against them for purchasing what keeps them employeed. I have a buddy that works for Toyota/Lexas and drives one. I understand.
Further, I have friends that have foreign cars. You won't hear me knock a Honda car. They make good stuff and I think are above the other foreign cars. But you won't see me own one.
