  1.  @ldorman  I agree most new cars are auto these days, especially those above a certain price but I find it odd behaviour that you may be in the habit of gawking inside the cars in a car park.

  2.  @dunc71  What sort of person does that? Would love to know what you drive, probably a Vauxhall Corsa with a big exhaust.

  7. For many years the cars made under the name of "Buick" were simply rebadged Opel. Same with many Ford in America coming from the European arms of the company. I'm not sure where Buick are getting their designs now that Opel is not part of GM.

  9. You can't turn the climate back. Just learn to deal with it. How do you think they managed in the 16th, 17th and 18th century with zero technology?

  10.  @HBBatista  That isn't a fact at all. How can the Sahara spread to another continent? What a stupid comment

  11. Surprised at that given Henry Ford was an anti Semite Nazi supporter.

  12. Ford had some very dubious connections to Nazi Germany.

  14.  @joseppedaia3673  I was JOKING. Don't have a go at reading comprehension when your grammar isn't up to scratch.

  15.  @joseppedaia3673  I was joking, and your English isn't exactly great so wind your neck in.

  16.  @joseppedaia3673  First of all I am not an American and for your information English as a language doesn't come from America. Secondly, if you are going to try and ridicule me with a perceived lack of comprehension, have the good grace to take it on the chin when your post contains glaring errors and is therefore subject to similar ridicule. You were trying to be clever, but it backfired on you. The fact I put a laughing emoji is proof I was joking.

  17.  @joseppedaia3673  You can try to be clever if you want, but do you really think I only speak one language? The jokes on you, you tried to be smarmy, but you made an error which made your condescending comment backfire upon you.

  21. Isn't American culture an oxymoron?

  22. It's hilarious Yanks think their versions of everything are the best. I can't think of anything America does better than anyone else.

  23.  @IWrocker  The title of the video asks that very question. Half your content addresses the pervasive attitude of Americans that they are the best, or believe they have the best of everything. I'm glad you don't believe it is true and realise America is largely a joke, but many of your population DO believe this myth of America being number one judging by the videos you review and from my own experience .

  24.  @jonhroarulstad5775  Americans have stupid names like Skip Bornhooter or Dick Encrovic. They also have a stupid habit of naming the son after the mother's maiden name, so you get ridiculous names like Webb and Wyndham as forenames.

  26.  @bencze465  Yes, it's a large country, but just as it's not an excuse to not holiday outside of your country, it's not an excuse to abandon all knowledge. Canada is bigger than USA, Australia isn't far off the US size, but they aren't as insular and ignorant as Americans are. As a non American I have been asked some truly preposterous questions by Americans that no other nation would be stupid enough to ask, and it is because of their insular media and woeful inside US Borders and US orientated education.

  27.  @bananenmusli2769  Then you're arrogant as well as ignorant aren't you? Assumption is the mother of all mistakes.

  28.  @5xt  Shell has been Anglo-Dutch decades in afraid. You should do your research. Shell started in Britain and 30 years down the line MERGED with a Dutch company.

  30. Americans dont want to pay for quality, eveything is about lowest price.

  31. Americans really shouldn't be surprised how much better some of the rest of the world is. I was really underwhelmed when I drove the Pacific Highway. There are far better drives out there in the world.

  32.  @IWrocker  I'm talking about how sugar, salt and MSG pervades so much American produce. You have such a high level of processed food, such high numbers of fast food outlets etc and the proof of your awful diet is manifested in your obesity rates. Of course it's not everywhere, and not everyone but if you compare the diets of your average American to a Greek, Italian, French or Danish person you are going to see a lot of junk and unhealthy food in there.

  33. European design is simply better. I can't think of one American product which looks better or is more functional than European options.

  34. Temperature doesn't cause the fire. The fores are started by humans by way of sparks, cigarettes, discarded glass etc. 50c can't make material combust

  37.  @davidc.w.2908  Ha ha ha. Tech ology moved on. I don't want to still have a cathode ray tube from 2000 when there's better smart TVs which do better things, I don't want a car from 1985 when technology had made better, more reliable and better looking cars which offer greater comfort and efficiency. It's called PROGRESS.

  38.  @101steel4  American clothes and hair styles are obsolete too. 😀

  39.  @davidc.w.2908  I'm not talking about things that deliberately have a short life, I'm talking about things which are made "obsolete" by advances in technology. I could get a 2005 mobile from a drawer at home, would it work? Yes, it would, would I want to use something so rudimentary? No, of course I wouldn't. Goes for virtually every electrical piece of equipment that we all own. Things like coffee grinders etc are things that aren't made obsolete, their function doesn't change. You clearly don't remember all the recalls from the dreadful quality rust bucket cars from the 1980's. Things are also recalled because we have HIGHER safety requirements than we used to and consumer laws help protect the consumer. Having a recall is a GOOD THING.

  40.  @davidc.w.2908  What do you mean "you read more and more that SUVs and pick ups are sold there." SUV and Pickups are not exempt from having to reach a safety threshold. We have a higher standard of driving test than US and we have lower levels of blood alcohol permitted and drink driving is seriously taboo. No, a recall doesn't mean that a problem wasn't caught before product release, problems can occur over time, such as Toyota recently recalled a model for a brake issue which develops over time. We get the same happening in loads of products, and given how much more sophisticated cars and other products are these days, it isn't surprising. We even get food and toys recalled now. It's basic safety and good for us all. Yes, it would be great if products could be guaranteed not to develop faults, but despite all efforts to mitigate against it, you can't foresee certain problems. Would you rather Boeing or Airbus didn't recall their products in light of information that something MIGHT happen?

  41.  @davidc.w.2908  You're just using selective memory. I remember cars being recalled in the 1980's and cars were shocking quality back then and considerable LESS safe. As I previously stated, the majority of cars, SUVs @!$ pick ups for sale in Europe already meet the top level of safety assessment. They have FAR more safety features than older cars. For example I think I'm correct to say that the Volvo XC90 might not have more than a single fatality for occupants in road collisions. Even American cars, like the Tesla rank very highly for collision avoidance and safety in crashes. It's not even in question that today's cars are MUCH safer than those of previous decades. It's very true that many US cars are not sold in Europe, but it's largely a style thing, as American designed cars bar a few examples don't sell well around the world anyway. For balance there's tons of European cars that aren't sold in US either. You're using hindsight incorrectly. You can't know everything. You have to go with the evidence which is available at the time and the data received from testing.

  42.  @camillosteuss  Plenty cars will be here in 50 years, but who wants 50 year old cars?
    1
  43.  @camillosteuss  Then today's cars that will be around in 50 years are by default quality items. There will be loads of current cars which will become classics and still be around in 50 years, none of them will probably be American though.

  46.  @arranchace1306  Because it's old and pretty dull, but I get your sentiment.

  47.  @adrianbriggs2763  You answered your own question. America doesn't have to pay much for fuel. Besides, being an SUV doesn't necessarily make it inefficient. I had a Volvo V60, did 40mpg, got a Volvo XC60, did 39mpg.

  48.  @adrianbriggs2763  Hardly, those are somewhat optimistic ranges for a car with a 66l tank. Averaging 5.5litre per 100km might be doable on a motorway run, but combined I doubt you'd get that, also diesels are out of favour sadly. Audi actually claim 1400 out of a tank for the Q5.
