Vehicles have been around for ages. [From mules, horses, and wagons, technology shift to
Ford model Ts to Foreign ferrari's, BMW even to Classic Chevy Novas]. Automobiles are
our everyday transportation. As the days got shorter and the years extended, the

technology of the automobile industry have improved by a milestone. But the catch to this
is, americans are improving with the best vehicle tactics. Are foreign country's doing the
best, let me explain. Very Many people wonder, why the gasoline prices of the present day are
so expensive, because our everyday technology is improving! vehicle companies taking Bose
and Beats Audio making surround sound audio systems inside cars, Smartphone Hookups,
Bluetooth as our modern day advances so does the enhancements of our automobiles. Foreign
companies putting out top of the line cars, Ferraris, BMW, Lamborghini, Mazda,
Audi, Honda, Toyota... On and on, But along with that American companies putting out
top of the line cars, Chevrolet, Ford, Dodge, Chrysler. jeep and many more.

If you

are thinking about buying a new car, but you are not sure which car is the right car, if you pick a
foreign car, you will contribute to the collapse of american made motors, such as General
Motors/ Ford. If you are an American, should you be patriotic to the American Motor Vehicle?
The quality of the car matters, if you decide to pick an american car, are you sure you will get
your money's worth, why not a Mercedez Benz, or a Lexus? But following up on that, here are
some all American top pick cars! Tesla modle s, Ford focus, sedan Ford fusion, large sedan
Chevrolet Impala, Sports sedan, Buick Regal, Luxury Car, the Cadillac CTS! These are the best
american top pick cars overall.
American Brands cars are going yards on the competitive playing field. Each year, we
put together a list of all American top picks to help customers/ buyers/ shoppers. Each year, the
American car companies tend to get a lot better. With elderly people need help finding the safest/
most reliable car to consume. Many people wonder, why most American made automobiles of all
segments, are missing from the list, (pickup trucks, new competition)! Because the sum of
foreign vehicles, are sweeping the floor with America's best top models.

Jonathan
Mclaughlin a North Carolina Citizen, has been in the automotive industry for years. And i had
asked him, what his opinion was on American Vs. Foreign cars. He responded the difference
between these two makes of vehicles is that, they are made in different countries, they still have
engines, they still have wheels, i honestly have no opinion. And then I asked, but what about
MPG (Miles Per Gallon) who he thought got better? he responded, Most American automobiles
are all around great on gas, and then again Foreign vehicles, such as the Toyota Prius, etc. They
are magnificent on gas milage. But to him, he said that both American and foreign are
manufactured both differently, but both have the same features.
Ford the international all time famous car company owns volvo, land rover, Aston
Martin, differen thece between these two is that they are made in different countries , and
Jaguar. Ford also has a big percentage of Mazda. Supports, American top car owners! The
foreign car company BMW, witch is a vehicle with really good reputation, owns the mini and
Rolls Royce, volkswagen, Volkswagen owns Bentley. Many people didn't know this. But then

again many people know top brand named cars, made in foreign countries.
Owning a car business, isn't about the fastest car, or the nicest car of that period.
Owning a company means you have to have reputation for that vehicle! and having reputation
gets you zeros in your bank account! Nissan, and even subaru, these brand names are popular
and have very solid reputation! The 2006 Hyundai Sonata was built in the united states, very
much favorably compared with the foreign auto company Toyota, but the Hyundai was made to
be better than the Toyota camry, which would be a really hard comparison to beat! These cars are
moving up their reputation rapidly! These cars are very well known at this point of history.
Foreign means the vehicle has a foreign name-plate. And American means the automobile
has and American name-plate. Discussing the differences between the foreign/ American car.
American, sends our car parts to different nations to be built, such as Mexico, Canada. The cars
are legally built, and legally sold as domestic cars. Toyota, Honda, Nissan, BMW, Mercedes
Benz, and hyundai, all foreign cars but yet are all manufactured inside the United States, because
we as Americans are allowed to manufacture cars overseas!

Automobiles

are being produced each and every day! In 2005 there were 63 million cars and light trucks such
as pickups (Ford Ranger, Chevy s10, Toyota Tacoma, Ect.) Also in this year, the United States
produced 11,524,000 cars worldwide! Japan produced 10,064,000 cars worldwide, and Germany
had produced 5,543,000 cars worldwide, followed by China. In (1769) the first bonafide
automobile is created by Carl Benz. Carl had created the first three wheeled, steam powered
automobile the vehicle was built nearly 121 years ago. The first automotive patent was
established in the United States to Oliver Evans in 1789 for Amphibious Digger this is a little
bit of fact and information on the Vehicle/ Automobile industry.

Very

many Americans wonder, are foreign vehicles better? Foreign automobiles are very well known

to have better style, more luxurious, Mileage to the gallon of gasoline, and to be able to handle a
lot better than, American. Foreign car manufacturers have always made styling a key priority!
For most American car manufactures tend to update the style and look of their vehicle a lot less
frequently. Following up on that, Foreign cars come with more outstanding look/ luxurious
features. such as carr connected bluetooth, rear end back up camera, and many more options.
When it come to steering the American made Automobile tends to be 50% more negative than
the steerable management of the Foreign vehicle. Concluding this, overall foreign car handle
much more efficiently than American autos do, whether they put too much power to the ground
or not, or could have a suspension system, foreign cars steer better. American made vehicles are
cheaper to buy at a more comfortable rate/ price. Tending to the size of the cars and equipment,
but over the life of the cars a japanese car remains at most economical. Positive for the American
Automobiles, they are getting better and better MPG (Mileage per Gallon of Gasoline) each and
every year! Foreign made cars have applied gas saving technology even earlier.
Toyota Camry
(Foreign Car), is the best selling brand is the United states, even through other brands are
improving. Domestic manufactures are beginning to respond to the competition and as well, are
getting better. And yet Toyota. Leus placed at the top in eight catagories. these are some
examples of reputation, and top marketing automotive vehicle companies.
Might it be OK to consider a Toyota Camry or Honda Accord for your next vehicle purchase if
youre looking to buy American? trying to decipher which vehicles are more American (a
foreign vehicle with more U.S.-made parts or a U.S. company that makes a vehicle with more
foreign parts), may be too much of a headache for most consumers.
