Say what you want to, but I been driving a Toyota Tacoma now purchased new, since 2006.
My wife drives a Hyundai Santa Fe purchased new, in 2008.
Because of the reliability of both, we've actually saved money.
Both still in good shape.
Both of us drove American Cars or Trucks since the 70's.
Our last US vehicles were a Ford Ranger (I know, it's a Mazda, but...) and a Saturn station wagon.
Both purchased new, and neither got to 100K in miles.
My Ranger was in the shop quite a bit.
36k warantee, and lo and behold, 2nd gear goes out at 37k.
It didn't get better from there.
Traded it in at 78k, after numerous issues.
My wife fared a bit better with the Saturn.
No issues until the motor seized, at 98k.
I've heard that the US is making better cars and trucks now, but I've heard that for quite a while.
Company I work for has 2 GM vehicles, a Chevy Silverado and an Impala, both purchased new.
Both have been back for one issue or another since 2015.
It may just be me, but it is the experiences I've had over the years.
I've have a few more issues than this.
