In Reply to: You keep buying cars you describe as POS. Why? I bought Toyotas posted by tinear on September 14, 2021 at 17:06:34:
The Japanese marks have been out of my price range since the voluntary import quotas.
Used or new, there's a premium to pay that I can't afford.
I want a Honda but I don't need a Honda. A Chevy or Ford will do, and in reality if you take care of a Cobalt it'll last and be reliable. My car is a POS, but it's 15 years old and if can keep it rust free it'll last another 15 years.
But it's crude. The interior plastics are beyond cheap. The ride is harsh, there's a lot of torque steer, the suspension clunks, the shifter is crap.
That's the difference between good cars and GM cars.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
