I honestly thought about buying american, however I have heard too many horror stories of American cars falling apart. My mom has a Jeep that is having many kinds of problems, namely phantom electrical problems and bad brake rotors from the factory.

 

Also resale value, check Kelly Blue Book, the ones that higher resale values are foreign cars.

 

 

 

If the car makers in Detroit make a good AND affordable car, then I would think of it.

 

 

Also, what really makes an American Car?

 

 

One where the parent company is American or one that was manufactured in America? Many cars put out by American car companies were not even made in America, but manufactured in Mexico or another country
