Classe move to China

Onhwy61 - Please don't mention Chevy Vega. I'm still trying to forget the one I had in 80s. Same goes for 1986 Ford Taurus - even bigger piece of shit. My current 16 year old Toyota Avalon, built in Kentucky, works like Swiss watch. No repairs, no rust - perfection. It all depends on design and management. China makes some bad stuff but also makes Apple computers. Stereophile mentioned once that quality of one of the British audio companies actually improved when they moved to China (perhaps modernizing assembly line). Surface mount electronic assembling is a very well controlled process and it practically doesn't matter where executed. When I have a choice I always try to buy "Made in USA" but won't buy another Ford ever, sorry.

Yeah, who do you think taught Japanese how to make cars, electronics etc. ? American designers and engineers. Not sure who taught them how to screw up with nuclear power though.

"Yeah, who do you think taught Japanese how to make cars"

You mean cars like Edsel, Chevy Corvair., Ford Maveric, Ford Pinto, Ford Tempo, Ford Taurus, Chevy Vega, Chevy Chevette, Chevy Citation, AMC Pacer, AMC Gremlin, Doge Omni, Plymouth Horizon, Pontaic GTO, Cadilac Eldorado?

They must've been not listening when we taught them.

Back to sixties and seventies there were many American engineers who went to Japan because of opportunities to build something different from typical Detroit 20 feet long iron.
Kijanki, are you listening to what we are saying or what?

"Not sure who taught them how to screw up with nuclear power though"

Perhaps we did.

In 1979 "Three Mile Island" accident we managed to make meldown and release of radioactive gases plus 40,000galons of radioactive waste into the river without any Earthquake or Tsunami.

Japan had 3 nuclear accidents so far, we had 10.
