  What’s confusing is that some great auto brands from Europe are under Stellantis (Peugeot and Citroen at least)

  And they’re actually not doing a shitty job in designing or selling their vehicles. It’s mainly the Chrysler brands or basically the US brands under Stellantis

    Turns out regulations are good for businesses.

      Regulations are definitely excellent for both businesses and consumers in the long term. But businesses are often too stupid to see past ANYTHING “quarterly”.

        That depends on the business culture and how good their advisors are. And also the size if the business matter.

        But yeah generally angelosaxton companies who have a mangement structure that’s way more in depth than it needs to be fuck these things over

      They’re good for longevity, but they’re bad for quarterly profits. In the US, we care much more for the latter.

    Peugeot and Citroën have their own issues in Europe (and technically in America) with the recall of car due to defective airbags.

    Out of the American big three, I have the most confidence in Ford. I’ve worked with engineers at all three, and the ones at Ford are the ones that I felt were most compitent.

    That being said, my next car will probably be a Toyota or a Subaru. Both way better than the American OEMs.
