I have a 1985 and a 1995 chevy P/U and I love both of them but when both were purchased there were no options by Toyota, Nissan or Honda.
So your thinking that a Chevy volt, Malibu, ford fusion or focus will hold up better than a Kia, honda or Toyota by the random year of 2040?? hahahahaha imo your way off man. The Asian vehicles built their reputation on simple small cars and trucks that would get mega mileage compared to the American products....I think you know that. Sure the gap has narrowed but I'm still gonna buy a foreign one. Matter of fact I'm in the market right now for a new company SUV and it's down to Kia Sorento or Honda CR-V. I'll buy that without any concern or feeling of responsibility to buy American.
