You claim that you have no agenda or whatever but your tone against American cars is completely negative. I point out factual information that disagrees with your perception, and then you accuse me of degrading this discussion to an emotional one. >Ps. Go back and read your own articles. You'll find that in this case, >your articles are full of the same inconsitencies that you want to >point out (but in my humble opinion have failed to) in mine. My arguments have been consistently factual. I've pointed out that cars built in the US but with Japanese labels are perceived worse, despite being identical. I've pointed out that the same thing has happened in Europe. I've pointed out that your Mazda Navajo is a perfect example of this phenomon. I've cited sources for all of my arguments and challenged you to refute them. The only thing "inconsistent" that I've done is point out the American manufacturers that are (IMHO) low quality and the Japanese ones that are high quality. Car quality isn't a binary "good"/ "bad" thing - certainly you understand that. -- John F. Haugh II | Vida en La Republica de Tejas: Ma Bell: (512) 251-2151 | Gov.
