My parents and myself were raised as patriots to support Americans first.
I've never bought a foreign car and neither have my parents nor grandparents when they were alive.
I will never buy a foreign car for the rest of my days. Their longevity may not be what they once were, but I think the US Auto industry was purposely crippled to help ruin our economy. I'm hoping the culture of the UAW union gets exposed for the corrupt organization it is and either collapses under it's own weight or is sued into oblivion.
I appreciate and support your intentions, but most likely your "American" cars were built in Canada or Mexico. The Japanese car makers manufacture the top models sold in America right here in America. In some ways, these Japanese cars are more American than those sold by the big three.
Yeah I hear you. The foreign makers did a better job of picking states that don't require union membership. It saves them a HUGE percentage in costs and makes the employees more accountable for their performance and behavior.
Our Jeep was like 60% Toledo and American sourced. The minivan was closer to 50%.
But my 1997 Pontiac was almost all USA and built in Kansas.
They're not making parts for older cars anymore which is forcing people to buy newer cars! 😭😭😭 My 2006 Ford Explorer has a couple of things that have gone out, one that I can't replace since it is a control module and used isn't a good idea. But it's still drivable for now. Depends on what goes out next! Mechanic said he's seen cars only 8 years old that they've stopped making parts for!

Your Pontiac probably can't be taken over by remote control as well. I'm a big fan of older cars.
