corvette

A car General Motors quit making in 1967.

The current overly plastic turd marketed by GM as a Z06 Corvette can go over 190 mph. This is the main argument when owners and prospective owners bash other all other cars. Never mind the US speed limit is 70mph and these losers would crap on themselves at over 120. Their cars are driven no faster than a POS Chevy Malibu.

The best thing about not owning a Corvette is that they are a bigger cop magnet than an INDY car. Reason being they are not likely to pull over a Porsche 911 or Ferrari cause they don't know what the hell it is, although some cops mistake Ferrari for corvette cause it has round tail lights and must be a Curvette, Duh! So basically you have a car that a Jealous, idiot cop knows and can brag to his buddies, "I wrote a black covette for 59 in a 45. Really he was on doing 35." This is the main reason Corvettes and Vipers are seen in parade mode, 15 mph under the speed limit.

Corvette was a great car till the bean counters fired the styling department and started using cheaper materials.

Ford Ranger

Small, economical truck made by Ford (1983-2011) that has unfortunately been discontinued. Mazda B series is a re-branded version of the same truck since companies pay a 25% tariff** on truck imports. Building a Mazda factory in the US was not economical for the volume they sold. Likely no longer made due Ford wanting to upsell consumers on a loaded F150 that's much more heavy and less economical than what a Ranger owner is looking for.

**(Bing Chicken Tax)
Ford Ranger like the Explorer and Probe seem more reliable than the rest of their cars. Must be cause Mazda was involved.

Now that the Ford Ranger is gone your choice is something big or bigger. I think I'll find a used Ranger.

In the USA Ford Rangers are driving by old people, young people and companies. Most anyone that needs a small truck with relatively decent mileage,

buick

Till recently a brand of nice, well optioned, large cars. Now just an overpriced, Chevrolets. Fewer models are offered and people cannot name a single current models. The Regal, Lesabre and Park Avenue were huge sellers so management decided to scrap them for the LaCrosse, Enclave(suv crossover)and Lucerne. Only reason I know what they are is cause I checked their website. Now you never see these new Buicks.

GMs usual mistake is hiring excutives that only look at the bottom line instead of what the consumer wants, what the consumer wants it to be call and what the consumer will pay for it. The bottom line would fix itself with sales and increased production.
Because GM, like most American companies are run by dumbshits it is likely that Buick and Pontiac will cease production in the next few years following the fate of Oldsmobile.

I remember not long ago when my brother bought a Regal for less than 20k. Now this Buick LaCrosse rubbish cost 28,700!

Even Tiger Woods cannot trick someone into paying 10 grand too much for a Buick.

Harley Earl is spinning in his grave watching these idiots ruining Buick and killing Oldsmobile.
