"Maybe, if you made it right the first time." GM and Ford didn't make it right. They didn't recall those Vegas. They didn't recall those 6 cylinder Pintos. They didn't use better steel. I worked at Bethlehem Steel and I was there when we sent out shipments to the manufacturers and GM and Ford always bought the crappiest stuff. I'm not really trying to fight you on this, I'm just telling you why I got turned off to GM and Ford. You mention the Fusion and I've ALSO mentioned the Fusion as an indication that at least Ford seems to be finally GETTING IT. I'd LOVE to buy U.S. cars, but I'm not going to buy something inferior just to keep U.S. manufacturers going, especially when they've been so CYNICAL as to just make oversized trucks and SUV's to keep their profits up. Did we REALLY need the Hummer on our highways??? BTW....the Pontiac Vibe only ranks high on the reliability rankings because Toyota makes the engine and drive train. It was the same deal with the Chevy Prizm.
