exactly. GM dropped the ball in the '80s and produced some of the most unremarkable cars in history. well, not just GM but all of the big 3. it gave the jap cars a foothold in the american market, and some people are just brand loyal - no matter if you talk until you are blue in the face they will not accept that the american car makers are back to producing good, quality automobiles.
a lot of the media is still arced towards the japanese 3 and the koreans. it's funny how quickly a car like the kia has taken off. if people are so brand loyal to the jap cars, then how does a korean manufacturer fit into the picture?
cruise consumer reports website sometime and find out exactly how many problems those cars are having - and how few the americans are having, and you'll see that quality is back in american cars. oh, yeah, take off the blinders before you go. if you go with an open mind, you'll see a lot clearer.
