Yes, but look into the new engines with turbos. And the new diesel engines. Some are seizing up in under 8,000 miles. Ford had its largest year of recalls in 2025. And don't get me started on Stellantis engines. In a market that has reached 100% saturation of car owners, how are these companies going to raise profits? Charge more, and make a cheaper quality product. That's what wrong with the car industry. They have no other way to increase profits while keeping quality.
Not disagreeing with you on quality, its been in the dumps for 50 years.
