If the monkey jumped a bike over the cars, they might have something to whine about. On the other hand, if the monkey was that good, maybe not.

On the other other hand:

"Does your meenkey have a laysance?"

The more PETA question is how dare you not ask for a licsence for your monkey. We will control your personal behavior!

it will take a lot more than this to garner my confidence in an American car.

+1.

And I'm all for humane treatment of animals. But CGI monkeys can be shot out of cannons for all I care. (hear that, Dodge? It's your next commercial calling.)

I am actually considering a Chevy Volt. I have to confess, I would have a lot more confidence in the Volt, it it were a Toyota/Honda Volt. But I plan in giving the Chevy Volt a good honest evaluation. I like the technology and until Peugeot decides to market in the US again, the Volt may be the best technical solution in 2011.

We have had two fords in our family. A mustang and a focus. Nothing but problems. I guess it is a crap shoot whether you get a good one or a bad one. For me, it is a game of the odds. What are the odds of my getting a lemon American car vs. the odds of getting a lemon foreign (Japan/Europe) car.

Economically, I simply can't justify taking such a chance on an American car these days. I know a lot of people who have gotten lucky with American cars, but I also know more that have been unlucky.

But hey, that's why there is a car market, so each can buy from who they feel comfortable with.

Anyone whom has owned a Ford Ranger Truck should understand why Ford is looked upon with skepticisim.
