Planetdumbass, shut the hell up, ignorant fool. The vast majority if Asian cars here are also only built for the U.S. market. Retard. Only the European cars here can truly be found worlwide unchanged.

Not shocking to me at all. Even semi-smart people watching the news aren’t chomping at the bit to go into more debt… foreclosures/ recession/ layoffs/ war/ politics… Sorta creates an atmosphere where everyone is just waiting.. Most new car buyers have cars less than 5 years old, so it’s difficult to convince someone to buy something they really don’t need instead of holding off for blue skies.

Exactly CA36GTP. And despite the minless meanderings of many of the domestic malcontents on this site the locals are making some pretty decent stuff nowadays. Didn’t Caddy just win MT’s car of the year?

I’ve seen more new cars this year than I ever have. I’m still trying to figure out where this downward spiraling economy is? All I ever see is people making more and spending more.

I’m just saying the new domestics won’t be as good as the older ones. Old GM’s and Chryslers can easily go past 150k, but the new ones will need lots of repairs before it even hits 100k

No surprise here. Don’t worry, I’ll do my part and buy from you Americanos next year. And I’ll guarantee it won’t be a Honda or Toyota.

planet_drive is smoking some mighty powerful stuff there… Really? all domestic manufacturers build in obsolesance and all import builders don’t? you’re living in a dream world, dude. I have a 197,000 mile Yukon that says you’re full of crap. I have plenty of customers who are well into the 100,000 mile range, and fewer but still plenty who have broken the 200,000 mile mark. And even a few import owners who have achieved that plateau come to me for service.

Show me where you get your stats, and we’ll talk some more…

This is exactly why its a bad time to buy a domestic car these days. Since 90% of the domestic cars on sale here are built only for the domestic market, and our market buying the least amount of new cars now, domestic car makers are going to build cars that are lower quality and will not last as long so that we are forced to buy another new car sooner than expected. If they built quality reliable cars that lasted 15 years without problems, it would hurt their sales because people would not have a need to buy more new cars. Stick with imports because those cars are built for international markets and focus on quality and reliability is the most important issue for them.
