If the folks in Detroit could build a car that was a good quality product they wouldn't have to worry. I buy cars that will last and are worth my hard earned money. I don't believe in welfare.

Oh, the folks in Detroit can build good quality cars that will last but they have no reason to do so. Detroit builds cars with built in obsolescence either in styling or durability. If cars lasted longer and styling remained similar, new car sales would drop and they might as well turn out the lights in Detroit.

Lemmeesseee, heah, fella:

My Buick has 167,000/ starts and runs great. The Chevy has 178,000, starts and runs great.

Detroit learned that lesson around 1982 and has been doing fine ever since.

Any other lame excuses?
