Chevrolet

We're told that American cars are unreliable, unrefined, and uncompetitive pinch their imported ilk. We're told that Japanese cars will outlast thing from nan Big Three, and that European competitors connection features that we yanks tin scarcely dream of. But is that really true? Are things truthful apocalyptic for American automakers? Is location nary American car that's worthy recommending successful nan twelvemonth of our lord 2025?

That's nan mobility we posed to you each past week: What American car serves arsenic a counterpoint to each nan narratives astir our vehicles? What car from these 50 United States would you urge to a friend, lover, aliases activity acquaintance who will fuss you endlessly if nan car you urge to them doesn't meet their standards? Today, aft a agelong vacation play of your picks, we yet get to peruse your answers. Let's dive in, and spot your favourite cars from nan stars and bars.

Chevrolet

At nan existent world, value delicate portion of nan market, I'd propose a look astatine nan Chevy Trax aliases Buick Envista. They've been lovingly reviewed, but only clip will show really reliable they are.

I'd opportunity Ford Maverick, but its existent pricing is simply a mediate digit to its imaginable buyers.

The Trax sets a bully benchmark for what a reasonable commuter car should cost, and I'm told it's really beautiful bully for nan price. It seems a bully alteration from nan original Trax, which I ne'er loved — though I did negociate to drift 1 connected gravel once. Unfortunately for those looking to dodge tariffs, though, nan Trax is manufactured successful China and South Korea. 

Cadillac

The Cadillac CT Blackwings, C8 Corvette, aliases nan Ford F150. All easy awesome vehicles.

There's a demon successful my brain, and that demon wants maine to cheque nan latest prices connected nan CT4's predecessor, nan ATS. I don't moreover request a V, but you could get nan ATS pinch a manual, a 2.0-liter turbo four, and rear-wheel thrust backmost successful nan day. On nan Camaro platform! And they're cheap! At least, they were past clip I checked. I will not look astatine what they're going for now. 

Ford

I'm presently driving a Ford Ranger Raptor and, isolated from for nan substance mileage, emotion it. It's comfortable and fun. It has much than capable tech. It's plentifulness roomy for me. It tin offroad arsenic good arsenic my Wrangler could, although, immoderate 35s would beryllium nice. I'm not judge that I could get it into garages, though.

Submitted by: milanst

The Ranger Raptor is surely a very American vehicle, though possibly little truthful than nan F-150 Raptor connected sheer "bigger is amended mindset" American-ness alone. The Bronco Raptor wins, though, because each clip I spot 1 connected nan road, its driver has problem fitting into their lane. That's freedom, baby. 

Cadillac

Cadillac Lyriq. It's nan champion looking somewhat affordable electrical conveyance connected nan roadworthy correct now. I haven't heard of immoderate issues past nan first package recall. My 1 antagonistic is that it's excessively precocious of nan crushed (SUV, I know). The Lyriq V lowers it a spot to a nicer stance.

Submitted by: BigFootRunner13

I yet saw a Lyriq successful nan chaotic recently, connected a uncommon excursion into Manhattan to spell spot F1 The Movie pinch Andy and Ryan. We don't get specified niceties present successful Brooklyn. 

Ford

Perhaps I've been fortunate, but person utilized Mustangs arsenic regular drivers since nan 1990s and they person each tally well, gotten a batch of mileage in, and held up/been safe. "Manufactured" is successful nan oculus of nan beholder, but assembled, certainly.👍

Submitted by: OldFord

See, your sanction seems to connote that it's not a existent Mustang you're dailying. How aged of a Ford is it, exactly?

If you tin find a cleanable debased mileage one, Panther Platform. Yes, it's been complete 10 years since nan past 1 was made. However, parts are inexpensive and easy available, road mileage is decent, they're durable and comfortable. As for new, I'd opportunity V6 Durango. They've been successful accumulation truthful agelong that each nan bugs are worked out.

"If you want thing American, get thing made for cops 10 years ago" is simply a damning yet perfectly meticulous critique of our awesome nation. Nothing is amended than it was a decade ago, and each nan bully worldly goes to nan pigs. 

Lucid

Does Lucid count arsenic American wherever each of their facilities, design, headquarters, accumulation is present but they're mostly owned by Saudi?

Submitted by: fabey

Yeah, I'll count it. Why not. Saudi Arabia has deals pinch our richest group anyway, astatine immoderate constituent nan money is each conscionable mushed together. 

Ford

I would urge a couple, successful truth precocious did to personification who bought nan proposal and loves it. That was a Ford Maverick hybrid. She replaced her Camry hybrid which was totaled by a deed and tally driver connected nan freeway pinch it. I would besides urge immoderate Lincoln merchandise owed to nan exceptional reliability my woman has had pinch hers, including her existent car, a 2017 Lincoln MKZ hybrid successful candy pome reddish complete achromatic which complete its 80k + miles has had only a mates of issues, nary awesome and was conscionable inspected by Lincoln who said it should easy get to 100k pinch thing needed. Brakes are still astatine 70 percent! And it's a awesome looking car, rides very good and she managed 42 MPG mean erstwhile she was commuting. She is considering buying a caller car but astatine this constituent isn't seeing nan need. If they were not ending accumulation I'd urge nan Chrysler 300C also, I thrust nan father-in-law's 2011 which we inherited erstwhile he passed and while I've had to do a fewer things to it, (spark plugs, h2o pump) it's been beautiful reliable and is damn nosy to drive.

Seeing a Camry replaced pinch a Maverick saddens me. Mavericks should switch F-150s, Camrys should beryllium replaced by Corollas. Or Miatas. Or bicycles. 

Hyundai

I emotion my Ioniq 5, since they're making them successful America now I would urge 1 to anyone who needs a solid, reliable car that has bully performance.

ETA: Sorry I didn't drawback nan portion it had to beryllium an American company, I conscionable saw nan spot astir nan car being manufactured present and thought thats what Amber Meant. Basically thing designed by Detroit successful my big life that I've wanted to thrust truthful should person conscionable stayed quiet lol
