Is A New Chrsyler A Patriotic Purchase?
The Prius is classified as an economy car. It is marketed as an economy car, they are geared toward the same audience. The same people would have purchased the CRX or Metro.
New cars suck. All of them suck. Airbags are a cop out for SRS. You want to walk away from an accident? Put a cage in your car and wear a 4pt and helmet. There are no safe cars, outside of that formula, which is still imperfect, but as close as they come to true "safety".
The Metro and CRX are coffins, but hey, if every new manu stopped producing 4000lb + cars, drop a little inertia and a lot of BS from the roster, like cars answering your cellular phone for you, we might be on to something, for MPG and safety alike.
Essentially, yeah, there are manus that help the US economy from all over the world, including Chrysler, but none of the designs are worth the coin.
I could build a car that got 100mpg, no problem for the kind of money Toyota is asking for that rolling ecological disaster they call a hybrid. Lithium mines in Chili are not "free energy" and we don't have enough corn to sustain the population's fuel and crop feed demands for livestock, as well as consuming a vegtable (starch now, according to FDA) on our plates to use E-85 on everything.
The future, if there were any, for cars, will be biodiesel electric in cars that approach 2k instead of 4 on the scales.
Or every manu can continue producing SUVs to the general population, which will generally never use them for their intended purpose and I'll continue to ignore new cars as a viable plan for any duration of my future. If they want my biz as well as friends and family alike, Detroit is going to have to go back to the drawing board, because I'm not buying any of what they are telling people is modern advancement.
two are econo boxes. hell the crx is a 2 seater. the prius is a lot bigger than both the other ones and has power closer to v-6 power then a tiny 4cy. not really sure where you are going with a not so fair comparison.
