I was just reading how tariffs are going to affect auto sales. For example, a $42k Volvo would be near $60k. Guess I’ll hang on to what I have.

That may not be completely accurate. The press is playing some funny games with the hype and numbers.

But, another option is to buy an America car or car made in America instead of that overpriced brand.

Such as Honda, Nissan, and Toyota?
 
I bought an American GMC. Hard to tell where all the shit making up that pickup was made though. Probably a smorgasbord of shithole countries if I had to wager.

Have a plastic spittoon in that SOB that has to be from China. About half full with genuine Skoal mouthwash.
 
You’ll still have pieces that aren’t made in America. They may be assembled here, or part here… part across the pond, and then finalized here. My key fob for my Toyota was affected by the chips made in China, during COVID. Took 9 months to get my 2nd key.

Pretty sure that all companies will raise their prices bc you know… economics
 
Mean Ford and Lincoln are offering employee pricing to everyone in the US until June 2.

They have a full list and which ones are excluded.

Then the tariff wouldn't apply.

That shows we are vulnerable and that is just a key FOB.
