Excellent.

I got news for you, though, GM and Ford are already in deep water. ;)

I was a die-hard "buy American" guy until I bought my Toyota RAV4 earlier this year.

I got a Honda Civic and love it. I have heard hyundai is also another good car and Kia has made great strides from when they first came out. You will love the extra cash from when you go to the gas pump if you are used to going and filling up and it cost you $70 each time. I fill my car up for about $35 compared to the old $70 and that was when gas was a little cheaper. It probably would had cost me $80 to $90 to fill up the old truck if I was driving it now.

When Hyundai first came out, they had serious reliability issues. That's when they instituted their awesome 100,000 Mile / 10 year warranty. If they weren't still battling that old first impression, which from my understanding no longer applies at all in truth, they would be a real dominant manufacturer in the industry. Right now they are just a really goo dbuy, along with kia.

Just wait until the Chinese cars start hitting the market.
