102. Hiya p2!

There are reasons that American automakers score at or near the bottom in almost every quality survey.

They deserve to.

Almost any car on the market, if assembled even remotely correctly, should be expected to last well over 100,000 miles. Japanese/German automakers seem to be able to accomplish this at a level of quality miles beyond what the U.S. automakers feel is appropriate.

i defy anyone to look at an entry level (15-17K) Civic vs. an entry level Dodge, or Ford, or GM and tell me the trim levels, interior components, tolerances, finish, etc. aren't noticeably better on the Civic.
