Traditional US manufacturers don't even really try to sell their cars here because they know nobody wants them. They are definitely a bit crap. But not as bad as they used to be, by all accounts.

Why would they when you can have BMW, Mercedes, Audi or a reliable Japanese brand.

I think traditional US cars are at more of a Dacia level. Just a bit more basic all round than Euro or Japanese. But they are cheap.

Ahh now that is the problem, I have a honda XL750 Transalp. Bomb proof 100% reliable but a little drab in features.

Love the Jeep Wrangler too. A bit pricey but hold their price like glue.
