Why They Don’t Want You Driving a Chinese Car

I took my first ride in a Chinese car recently. Not in the U.S., of course, since sky-high tariffs have made them almost impossible to import. I was visiting family in the U.K., and we rented a BYD Sealion SUV. And let me tell you: I saw immediately why American car companies are desperate to have these things kept out of this country. It was elegantly designed, incredibly comfortable, and a smooth ride.

Your answer is China? That is really surprising.

America has threatened to forcibly annex Canada. China has not. So yeah. China's certainly got its problems, but I don't feel as personally or nationally threatened by them.

I was being facetious. No American who has been paying attention would be surprised by your conclusion.

glad I read your previous msg correctly

Well, as long as you're not a Chinese citizen, you're probably safe. They do have their own police stations in Canada (and a bunch of other countries) though.

If you've not been paying attention recently, I can see why that choice might appear surprising.
