i don’t even know why i bother…

how can i say they cost less to maintain? well…i’ve sold around 100 cars this year, about a 50/50 split of american vs domestic. the american always cost me more to maintain and get into running reliable condition.

yes you’re right, the closest thing japan has to a work truck is the tundra and the titan, which in my opinion are both pretty lame. all i’m trying to say is that dollar for dollar i have to spend more on the american cars on average. of course i have some american trucks that i don’t have to put a dollar into.

i personally like driving the tahoes, escalades and navigators more than the japanese trucks i have here. it’s just lately i have been having nothing but transmission issues with the GM’s. the ford/lincolns always need a new set of coilpacks and other various electrical shit.

the 2500HD i have right now had the GM pump rub issue in the transfer case. it’s just something that is so poorly designed.

but you are right, you take care of it, it will last a long time no matter what, as long as it’s not a chrysler.
