Sweetie, if you want a pole, have I got a pole for you.buffettbride wrote:Allllllrighty then. I haven't gone on a poll (or pole) bender in a while, so what better to entertain ourselves this weekend than voting on all that makes Americans American! Let me know if you have any poll suggestions...I'll start it or take the chance and do it yourself!
For starters...
Chevrolet
Ford
Dodge
Which one is your favorite, or do you have one?
Are you loyal to American automobiles or buy foreign?
I've got coastal confessions and a few more, how about you?

My second love:

I used to be a hardcore GM man but IMHO they lost the edge in 2002 when they decided to axe the F-Body and focus on SUV's and "front wheel drive import clones." At that time they said that there wasn't a market for "a reasonably priced Muscle Car" anymore. Well, it doesn't take an automobile market analyst to see how quickly the new Ford Mustangs are flying off of the showroom floors. Right now the only two choices GM offers are the Corvette, which the average Joe can't afford, and the Pontiac GTO.
So, I'll just hold onto to my souvenir of "a better time" and drive it til' the wheels fall off!

Just like their decision to get out of the rear-wheel drive sedan market... Whoever does the planning for GM really needs to be beaten with a brick in a sack.I used to be a hardcore GM man but IMHO they lost the edge in 2002 when they decided to axe the F-Body and focus on SUV's and "front wheel drive import clones."

Re: American Made - Automobiles - 4th of July Poll
Only Toyotas (or Hondas in a pinch) are allowed to live in our driveway in the car/truck category. Hubby's workvan is a Chevy something. And of course the bike is as American as it gets-Harley.buffettbride wrote:Allllllrighty then.
