Trump just increased the cost of every imported car by 25%

[mudwhistle]

At least you finally admit MAGAs aren't Republicans.

Republicans are assholes. But Democrats are even worse assholes.

 

[Rambunctious]

Zincwarrior Biden increased the price of cars by thousands of dollars... Dems want a car tax on gas engine and diesel vehicles... and you bring this up like as if it makes a point?....
Give us a break... this will help to reduce debt. and bring auto jobs back to America... already two parts plants one in Mexico and one in Canada are coming home...

That's pretty fucking idiotic.

Who runs Washington?

Who has been punishing businesses for the last 20 years?

LOL. Punishing business.

 

[mudwhistle]

LOL. Punishing business.

Yeah. Raising taxes, increasing regulations, the normal shit.
Suing them because they wouldn't bake them a penis shaped wedding cake.

The worst thing they did to them was force them to adhere to DEI hiring standards.

Hollywood has had to move to the UK because of taxes alone. They can't afford to make movies in the Communist State of California anymore.

Have never bought a new car in my life.

Only twice for me. A couple little Saturns. The ex is still driving one of them at damn near 300,000 miles. Those were actually decent cars.
I usually go with a used one owner lower miles when I do purchase.

Probably why they stopped making em

I'm still driving the Toyota my late husband bought new in 2012 and, well maintained, with 60K miles on it,it runs like when it was new. I expect it has another 100K miles to go.


.

Our 2010 Corolla is at 240K with only basic maintenance. Plugs, fluids, tires. Never has thrown a code.
Added to the family a 2019 Tundra built in Texas and the wife has a 2019 Highlander built in Indiana.

GM's most reliable product and for a while they were everywhere. It was one of the few small engines with a timing chain instead of a belt.
Shame they disappeared. Occasionally see one still. Bet parts are hard to find now.

That's an EV. You kids hate EV.

Nope. sorry gramps. Want to try again?

While Tesla vehicles are heavily assembled in the US, they are not 100% made in the USA, as they source parts globally, including from Canada, which counts as domestic production according to the US government

This tariff is on cars, not parts.

NAFTA was a Republican idea.

BS bunch of presidents came forward and said it was a great idea. Both sides.

Only Ross Perot said NO.

Find me a car made in America.

Here's just one manufacturer.....

Where Are Toyota Cars Made? - AllAmerican.org

We did the research to find out where Toyota is actually made. Are they made in the USA? Here is our verdict.

Nothing big has happened to mine. New Battery, new tires, that's it. I need to find a really good mechanic -- All I've got in my new location is a tire specialist that can do the rotating and fluids. Had to replace the air pressure monitors for the tires.

Only one of us is in big business. The other posts from his basement. I can assure you that companies were not being restricted from success by the government until recently. We sit around talking about other competitors, not the government. Company profits are historic highs right now. So was the stock market until Trump crashed it with Tariffs. You know what we are talking about right now? TARIFFS. How do we pass on the price increases to our customers. That's what we are talking about in big business.
