Default Boobie's Car?

Parent company is Japan. All profits go to parent company



Yeah? So? They still do better by US workers than Ford or GM. How do I
know? My uncle worked for GM and finished out his career with Subaru.
He hated GM as did many of his co-workers. These companies used to
lead the world and now they are a blazing symbol of US' lack of
imagination and pride in workmanship.
Try driving a Ford Fusion or Pontiac G6. Drive a new Vette after just
a single year and listen to the rattles. My Sedona isn't just "better"
than than Chrysler's vans; it's like night & day better. US built cars
are simply...a shame. My father was one of the last holdouts, doggedly
buying American cars until just 17 months ago. He finally gave up and
bought a Subaru. Patriotism is not an excuse to sell people junk. If
there was a car as good as my Subaru LGT made by the USA and it was 3
or even 5K more, I'd buy it! THAT would be patriotic.
