Do your part. Buy American.
>>28612216Stellantid of ckurse not counting. Toyota makws more made-in-america cars than all three pf them
Buy a Tesla.
>>28612220
I'm sorry, I think I'm too poor to import an escort
>>28612216No
>>28612216Make smoll cars and I will.
Can I still buy new parts for my 30 year old shitbox from the dealer? No? No thank you
>>28612300Pretty sure most GM dealerships will still sell you GMT400 parts. If they don't then I doubt the Jap or Germ alternatives will either.
>>28612297
>>28612216Yes, I'm planning to buy a used Tesla 3
>>28612304>EVIf I could charge at home I would, but that is never happening.
>>28612297This. Bring back American Subcompacts.
>>28612297>>28612333There's no profit margin on those, and their target demographic doesn't buy cars anymore. Why spend all the R&D money on something that's guaranteed to sell like shit and make no profit?
>>28612328you can't fill up your car at home, and charging stations aren't exactly difficult to find. i can walk to one even in my mid west shithole.
>>28612339Well then I guess I have to buy an import because the domestic market isn't supplying what I want.
>>28612354considering mitsubishi killed the mirage, a small import you could've bought, it doesn't seem like you're doing that, either.
>>28612351>you can't fill up your car at homeSure you can. There are companies who will fill up an on site gas tank for you. There are also companies who will come and fill up your vehicles for you. Both options are cheaper than buying a $50k+ EV.
>>28612351There is no point in owning an EV if you can't charge at home. I'm not spending so much more money just to lose the fast convenience of gas stations. Plus those charging stations all lack maintenance, or get vandalized all the time.
>>28612359you can also buy a charging station for your home, and it'll save you much more money in the long run than repeatedly getting gas delivered to your house.>>28612361what nigger hole to you live?
>>28612357I bought one of the last Chevy Sparks they made before killing it off. I did my part.
>>28612357Because I already own a domestic (made in mexico lmao) subcompact, and it hasn't died on me yet. Once it goes whoever sells a sub 3k lb sedan with 6'' of ground clearance will be at the top of my list.
>>28612364what car
>>28612362>it'll save you much more money in the long run than repeatedly getting gas delivered to your house.Not if I have a fully paid for ICE vehicle. $50k buys you decades worth of gas even if you get it delivered. But hey! What's another $50k of debt on top of the mountain of debt you already have.
>>28612370>i'm already subscribed do the gasoline jew, so, its cheaper to just stay subscribed but you're still spending more money than the guy who has a fully paid for EV.
>>28612366The (unfortunately discontinued) Ford Fiesta, with the lawsuit dct.
>>28612373Except you're not because if you have a fully paid for EV you better have $20k+ in the bank for the inevitable pack and/or drive unit replacement. FInd me a financial advisor who drives an EV. That's all I can say.
>>28612380>Except you're not, because (memes)i accept your concession. also, plenty of wealthy people drive EVs. only the poorest shitholes that don't have the infrastructure are devoid of them.
>>28612383>plenty of wealthy people drive EVsNot to save money lol. They also drive G Wagons and Suburbans when they don't have kids. They buy them because they're the current fad toy.
>>28612389Not to save money, but they're still saving more money than gasoline buyers in the long run (especially those retarded enough to have gasoline shipped to their house). so, its the best of both worlds, really.
You don't save money driving an EV lmaoYou may save a little on gas but the depreciation offsets any potential gas savingsMy x5 hybrid went from 78k to 38k on Carfax in not even 3 years. My year old 911 has appreciated 8k in comparison.
>>28612403>depreciation not relevant for people who keep their cars. or you could just buy an already depreciated EV.
>>28612216I'm doing my part. Both made in Mexico, batteries made in China. God bless.
>major determinant of vehicle cost of ownership is irrelevantLmao copeJust remembered my bmw is made in South Carolina snd it's not made by uaw. Based.
>>28612216Toyota is more American than anything Stellantis makes.
>>28612361>There is no point in owning an EV if you can't charge at home.I'm buying a used EV while living in Yuroop with just a few charges in my city. Don't care, as I drive around 50-80km per month and I'm fine using a public charger like 10 times a year?
>i'm spending more on gasoline and on maintenance>but i'm a retard who changes cars like i change shoes so i win!lol
>>28612467Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler. Its a modern BL.
>>28612477not only that, but if depreciation is such a big factor for you, why does this board shit on trucks so much and shill compact cars? trucks hold value much better, therefore, according to the gas cucks, they're cheaper to own.
>he cares about gas and maintenance cost>He can't deduct those costs on his taxes as business vehicle expensesMust suck to be poor
>>28612297Small cars don't sell well. This is the total sales for the Chevy Spark. Cheap, small, sold poorly.People clamoring for small cars is a myth invented by reddit.
>>28612373Insurance costs on EVs are insane. You clearly don't own an EV.
>>28612693The few people who like small cars REALLY like small cars. It's fine if the major brands don't want to spare the expense to capture that market segment, but somebody will.
>>28612216>Buy American.If I do, I'll want something that's unreasonably fast with zero effort.
>>28612701No they won't.
Okay
>>28612711y eah huh
>>28612418Manufacturers generally stop making parts after 10 years. After 20, many aftermarket companies stop making them. Some mechanics in the northeast will straight up not work on cars after a certain mileage. You will sell.>it's an EV, nothing breakspads, rotors, bushings, mounts, seals, hubs, cv axles, ball joints, and plastics all go bad eventually. Pray that none of the wiring harnesses on an 800 V system don't go bad either. The more annoying thing about old cars isn't even the engines - good ones can last a long time: it's all the ancillary shit you can't get anymore like steering racks.
>>28612774Wake me up whenever that happens.
>>28612775It's unavoidable: everything is meant to be DISPOSA-TRASH lease-baitThere is no such thing as "me love you long time" carsAbuse the shit out of that bitch for 3 years and throw that lease back to the BMW dealerIt's the inescapable modern way of "life"DESTROY HUMANITY NOW
>>28612216Ford>*
>>28612216Thanks to Biden the American auto assembly union is DEI hired on checkboxes for "equity" instead of competence. Only buy American if the car is made in a right-to-work state instead of a union-shop state.
>>28612216Supporting america is supporting globohomo
>>28613126>thanks to BidenIt's actually because of Yankee Lincoln and his industrio-capitalist sponsors.
>>28612220This nigga drunk
>>28612297how smoll can you go big boi
>>28613561too bad they only make golf carts now
>>28613561Why is he angry
>>28613635they're all angry these daysi basically AFK'd from life to do college/grad school in the 2010s and when i came out and looked at cars again, i noticed even basic econoboxes were all angry and trying to look intimidating, which they had no business doingcorollas, Hyundai 1.2L 100hp shitboxes, everything looks like ARGHH I WILL RAEP/RAEC YOUyeah right
>>28612216Bring back the Cobalt and price it under $40k and I will.
>>28613561Because some absolute retard at Fiat thought ruining the genius design of the 2007 Fiat 500 could be funny.
>>28612216You could not pay me enough to buy american made goyslop constructed before 2008.
>>28613973Constructed after* not before I'm retarded
>>28612224hey retard this shows number of models and not total production.
>>28614162the best selling cars in america are the big three trucks and SUVs. so, he's still wrong.
I will only drive american cars prior to 1997 that are rwd and v8. I will not ever own anything produced by pablo and chang.
Someone IRL was telling me about their Buick cuckover they just bought and that it was important for them to buy American. Took all the restraint I had to not ask them if they were some kind of retard.
>>28612297seems they stopped making those in 2016 / 2022
>>28614276>this nigga thinks union workers became brown only after 1997 kek
If you go on reddit, r/generalmotors and r/stellantis hate their companies. r/ford loves Ford. The posters are mostly employees.
>>28615670The Ford family keeps some pride in the company. GM is faceless, Stellantis is faceless/European.
>>28613161>Europe- still bringing in millions of rapefugees>Japan- still bringing in jeets>China- tries to copy everything America does but does it worse>Russia- importing jeets and musloids>America- only place that is deporting brownoids and blackoidsYou were saying
>>28612216I guess I will do my part as an European and buy the Stellantis made Opel Corsa.
why would i buy american?i'm a leaf and i bought a used leaf-made japanese car, is that the leaf directive?
>>28612216>Stellantis
>>28612216I did my part. I bought a german made ford which shared platform with japanese mazda. Crazy how that works :P
>>28617328This is the closest Ford has made to a Capri in about forty years.Just saying.
>>28617332Except you know, the actual literal Capri
