Now I drive a $30k, 3-year-old Kia that was built in Georgia, while wishing I could afford a used Japanese-built Toyota. The tranny in that Kia only has 15K miles on it and it's already acting up. And that "Android Auto" replacement for a real GPS never has worked. But the fake leather is pretty.

At least I still have my old '08 Ranger to fall back on. Those Mexicans can make great vehicle when those jerks in Detroit let them!
I wish I still had my 67 ford ranger, nothing on that truck I couldn’t fix. Had 2000 ranger and it was just as good with v6 cast iron block and heads. I got dream Maverick on order, dream is when and if I get it?
