Buy American?

Nothing but Fords for me. First car was an 03 Ranger, had a 72 F250 with the 392 4 speed for a while. Then an 18 F150, picked up an 01 Ranger to drive while I waited for my Bronco to come after buying out the lease on my F150 and flipping it for a decent profit.

I have had mostly Chinese cars, every part says made in China. Let me go look at my Bronco, yup made in China, assembled by Americans.

Guess that’s why they call it the Michigan ASSEMBLY Plant .

We've had:
19 Fords? (mustang, mustang, mustang, F-250, F-150, Tempo, Ranger, Contour, F-150, mustang, Expy, mustang, Exply, mustang, F-250, F-150, Expy XL, Bronco, Escape)


1 Jeep (XJ)

1 Olds (71 Cutlass Supreme)

1 Nissan (Frontier)

1 Dodge (Dakota)

The 79 Mustang was a royal POS, as was the Tempo. Jeep was really bad as well. The Nissan is bleh, and underpowered.

I miss my 69 F-250.

I've had 4 vehicles in my 26 years of driving.

87 Nissan Hardbody
98 Dodge Durango
06 Nissan Xterra
21 Ford Bronco.

50/50 split on origin but 100% built in America. Nissan Hardbody and Xterra were build in TN.

I can't even remember all the vehicles I've owned.

I know my earlier years were mostly American (Ford no less). Had a Dodge truck in there somewhere. But my last Domestic was a Pontiac that brand new was 27k (this was a couple decades ago at least) and 5 years later I was lucky to get 6k for it.

That's what I swore off domestics. I had become more financially wiser and I refuse to take that kind of depreciation. Nothing but foreign since...until I got into the off road thing then 2 Jeeps and now a Bronco.

started off as a Chevy fan mostly due to the hype that Chev's are the best, 350's are the greatest thing since sliced bread etc. Well after owning 2 and becoming a pretty good mechanic i bought a 72 F250 4x4, 70 mach 1 mustang and have had about 20 plus fords since. Only Ford I've ever had any issue with and i knew it when i bought it but loved the car was my 94 supercoupe, they were known to blow head gaskets from the supercharger, well it happened and Ford replaced my motor no problem. I have owned 2 imports in the middle of those fords which were pretty good but omg parts are expensive for import stuff. had a 79 datsun 210 and a 89 mazda 323.
Weirdest thing is i currently own a 21 JLUR Rubicon and i detest chrysler products ! Only got it because i didnt want to wait for a Bronco and i never buy the first year or 2 of a new vehicle.
cheers
