why do americans dont like german cars?

[illuminati]

That are ofc highly superior to the crap america makes themselves or how however many trillion toyotas which was almost all cars i saw in america.

I was in America and its pretty rare to see a proper german car, all toyotas and american garbage cars (which when u go outside of any city turn from normal cars into pick ups)

Had a 2004 volvo s60, NEVER had problems ever.

I had a "Opel Corsa". (Vauxhall for Americans)
I hated him (And he hated me). I was more under this car than in this car.

Because Toyota is reliable, also Japanese not American. Germans are considered to be more expensive and less reliable in a nutshell.

Right, you buy a Mercedes, and after a year you'll have a rat-rod

I think you're mistaking Mercedes with Lancia or Fiat.

No, I'm not, I've heard car mechanic's opinion on new Mercedes cars, and if you want a good one you need to get 30 years back in time. The new Mercedes are pieces of crap.

Besides bikes are better anyway, small, cheap, squeeze through traffic.

Why can't you just put the car up on hydraulic jacks, pop the bonnet and check for yourself, why do you need a mechanics opinion? He probably thinks it's crap because it's harder for him to find anything wrong with the car to try and make money out of you, Mercedes are one of the best mass producers of cars in the world

BMWs just catching fire all on their own prompted a massive recall recently.

I don't know what you're talking about... never had and never will have a Merc, and lets just say i trust this mechanic like not many people, he's saying it because that's the truth.

You mean that there's not many older cars that aren't collectible there? Yeah I understand that.

Depends on the car you want for a Job.

If you want a Truck, I have yet to see a major German Car maker produce a decent one, whereas Chevy and Ford here in the US Live and Breathe Trucks almost.

Also, American made cars tend to be more affordable than German made cars IMO. Of course a Mercedes or Audi is doing to be better than a Ford or a Chevy, but they cost much more usually, whereas a Good Ford or Chevy can be bought used for under 20K.

Another popular thing growing is the use of EV or Hybrid Cars (Dat EV and MPG tho), of which Tesla, an American Company, downright makes the best EV Cars in the World IMO, although they are expensive (40K is the lowest new ones go for), and they have to be made after you order one. Likewise, you also have other companies which make affordable and good Hybrid Cars, such as Ford's Fusion Line for instance.

To sum it all up though, I'd just say that Americans buy American cars because

1. We are also American
2. Imported Cars are more expensive
3. Trucks are commonly used Work Vehicles and you only ever see Chevy or Fords in that area.
4. Brand Recognition, some people like Ford and some like Chevy.
5. High Priced, Quality Made Foreign Cars, be they normal Sedans like a Mercedes or Sports Cars, are generally not needed and serve primarily as a status symbol.

You wrote the wrong country cars.
German cars are mostly garbage and American muscle are the nice ones

Yeah no. And I was driving both, right now I'm driving a German car, an Audi. And I can tell this is not the case.

[BigBallinChester]

I like German cars but they break down almost as soon as you buy them. Not only that they are stupid expensive to fix and parts are expensive.
I'll never buy a German car again. I only buy Japanese like Nissan,Toyota or Honda.

I don't know. Some teenager was doing 126 mph around a curve and smacked into a wall and his tesla batteries exploded and the car was a blaze. Killed him and his friend now the friends mom is suing tesla because the batteries exploding setting the car on fire. She is saying the batteries are defective.
