Good point. I saw this movie about Tucker and his dream with jeff bridges. It seems we could have had much better stuff here regarding car technology and quality according to that movie.

I buy toyotas too, have owned many, corolla in the 80's, various mr2's in the 90's, supra turbos and lexus ls series. Much better than the ford/mercury products I owned.

My redneck buddy would only buy chevy - said I was destroying this country buying all those toyotas hehe. Made his WW2 dad not want to talk to me - said I was buying from the "enemy"

However I used to buy only made in america TV's even though there were cheaper asian varieties - for a long time the asian versions were cheaper quality and broke more from my experience. Recently I have been using samsung products. I used to own motorola phones with my verizon wireless service - they were more reliable and rugged - but now have an HTC device that is asian origin. Recently when seeking out doctors - I seem to prefer the asian variety - they just seem more into thier work and up to snuff with the latest research and such - I don't see them out playing golf as much as our western born and bred docs. I am starting to see the indian doctors out eating on friday nights much more than I recall - less friday nights staying home reading medical journals.

My croatian friend who travels the world monthly says we still rank TOP in one area - he likes to sing that beach boys song - wish they all could be california girls - cause no other women around the globe gives the wild carefree sex like those californian surfer chicks. I guess that will make sure those asian boys keep coming over to vegas and spending 3K a night on wild blondes and economic hitmen can keep corrupting saud princes. My croation bud who works for a large international company said if the women change in this country and all become feminazied - he will start going to prague more and less west coast USA.
