Believe it or not: there are people that think Clinton should run again against Trump, or at least in another political capacity.

There are a lot of normal (what are you referring to as “American” sized cars?) sized cars in Japan that are the same dimensionally as cars sold by the Big Three in America.

#4 You are not incorrect, however you do see a fair number of Foresters, Levorgs (Impreza wagon), and plenty of “Crowns” (badge-engineered Lexuses [Lexi?]). The dimensions of those vehicles aren’t out of sorts with what is sold in the (North) American market by the Big Three.

It’s funny how a common theme among European car digests are the remarks, “Oh, that American car is so big!”

How many VAG plants are in Japan?

The Mondeo came about because of the union between Ford and Mazda. The Mondeo runs on a Mazda chassis.

This is somewhat true.

Having lived here for a while there are those that do show up sole for the paycheck, but they are the minority.

Ford of Europe didn’t buy Volvo.

You don’t think there’s patriotism at play in other markets?

The last generation (or pre-facelifted) M5 and M6 could be had with a manual in (North) America, but not Europe.

No. The corporations enjoy a monopoly in Japan that the EU and Big Three would salivate over.

The EU should lessen its protection racket to allow our cars there. But there would be no way you would see that with the way the Germans control the trade on the continent.

You realize that the Fusion/Mondeo is running on an old Mazda chassis, right? That was orchestrated by Ford, not #FordsubBrand.

The author failed to point out that Daimio is half-Japanese, half-American (read: white), but for some reason the actor that gets to play the (super fake) character has to exhibit a 100% Japanese/Asian appearance?

Daimio is Japanese-American, 50-50.

#neverforget that millions upon millions of Latinos voted for Donald Trump.

Because the combined powers of Hollywood, Beyonce and Jay-Z aren’t enough to counter the Fox News?

Too bad that’s not how a democracy works.

You’re focusing on the wrong tree in the burning forest.
