I have always been a loyal "buy American" guy. My thanks for this has been crappy cars. It doesn't matter if you are buying luxury or economy American cars don't compete in any sectors.
We are in the market for a new car right now and have not looked at any from an American car company. I have looked at several made in the USA by foreign companies.
Frankly, you should look at the FoMoCo Taurus, assuming that the size, etc., are in your scope.
This will be the last year they produce it--and that means that it's damn near bug-free--lotsa practice, you know.
I'm not shilling for FoMoCo, except I have one of them and am VERY pleased with it. Far more than I expected, to be honest.
Cars made in USA by foreign companies employ some Americans, but their headquarters and most of their employees are in their own counry. This is where the money goes ultimately. Hey, if you want to buy a foreign car, it's your decision but you need not worry about where it is assembled.
