Since 2003 I have tried diligently, and I mean diligently, to switch and buy American again. I am unable to get two of the features and specs on any US make or model which, for me, are deal killers. If Detroit really wants to compete successfully in the safer, better handling vehicle market against Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Volvo, Volkswagon, Saab, etc. etc. etc. they've got to stop listening to their idiotic market research companies, who don't even know what questions to ask, much less provide useful data and start doing some grassroots research. Every car buyer in America is NOT a soccer mom or a construction worker. I am currently in my fourth new Audi. In 2003 and again in 2006 I went to car shows, did hours and hours of online research and asked hundreds of questions. I really wanted to buy the Dodge Magnum AWD wagon. I also looked at Chrysler 300s, Ford 500s and Cadillac CTS, all of which come with AWD, a requirement for me. Not one is available with a six speed manual. Most are not available with a full size spare. If you want my business, which I will be happy to give you, and that of quite a few of my friends, you've got to match your AWD makes and models with a six speed manual and a full size spare or I'll stick your EU competitors.
