My expectation was that the car would start to have issues gradually. Eg, you can generally hear when an engine starts to misbehave. I got the Pacifica b/c it was a quiet, comfortable ride and accepted the higher cost of ownership. Now I wonder if their airbags will actually deploy in a crash.
Cars are now becoming a pile of soft-buttons, and I don’t see how that makes he experience better. There’s no physical lever to stop your car in an emergency in most new cars. Just a [P] toggle. Even the Chrysler has a really dumb knob for changing gears on the transmission (which people often confuse with a volume knob).
I may just buy a Chevy Tahoe next; it’s a much simpler car with sufficient luxury & tech.

- Declanomous 8y agoNot to say Chevy's are reliable, but they are definitely better than Chrysler. I don't understand brand loyalty with cars though. I can understand wanting to buy an American car, but even then it might make more sense to buy a foreign car depending on how you define what an 'American car' is.
- sjg007 8y agoThe Suburban is pretty solid.. Fords are also pretty good. I had a Uber driver who swore by Lincolns. He had one with 300k miles on it. He did have to replace parts due to wear though but I thought it was still in good condition cosmetically and was a nice ride.
- DrScump 8y agoA lot of "foreign" car makers build many models in the USA. Lots of Fords and Dodges and Nissans are made in Mexico.
