You are closer to the truth than you know.

BTW, Mexico is know as the forefront on cutting edge automotive design....

I have driven a few cars in the US, and a couple of pick-ups too. Not one of them had a decent suspension. You see it all the time - watch any car chase and American cars wallow on corners. European and Japanese simply don't.

ISIS concurrs - how many F100's do you see converted to mobile gun platforms?  :tongue2:

True, but we didn't pave over ox cart paths from the 1300's and call it a road.

BTW, I am trying to recall the British car that handled well for me when I drove it. Most of them never even started because the dampness got into the electrics.
