" Dear Idriz, .....I personally like Mercedes made anywhere.It doesn't matter where the product was made?as long as the manufacturer followes the Quality Control guidelines..." ? ? Dear?Member, ? Excellent choice! You just revealed to me that you have a very?expensive and exquisite taste. Not to be outdone, I'm an expensive date myself. I?like Mercedes and BMW. I carefully used?the transitive verb?'like'?not 'love',??because 'I like cars' and 'I love a woman'. The attraction is in the?German?engineering. I like the?way the car is made, the way it feels, it drives, it hugs the road, the way I look behind its wheel ( it brings out my blue eyes!),?etc.. ? This is how I feel but understandably not everybody agrees with me. As you can see from the following example I'll use?to make my point. ? " Once I had?a girl?who?shouldn't say she?once had me." (The Beatles) ? This Jewish girlfriend of mine utterly despised Mercedes and?refused to sit in it, much less? drive, because according to her, during WWII,?the Mercedes?manufacturer assisted the Nazis?in?the Holocaust. ? Maybe she was right, who knows. I admit, I'm not an expert in WWII history. ? Anyway, although she was good in the sack and treated me nice, we didn't last too long. It was one of those May-to-July summer romances. One day I got tired of her?Matzo-balls,Lox and Bagels and decided to call it a quit. ?I?dumped her,..literally,?during sex. However,?not before I started seeing her?drop-dead, gorgeous girl-friend who, coincidentally, also happened to be Jewish and on top it, she drove 325 BMW.?Obviously I was not tired of the Jewish cuisine but only?her. I know what are you saying, I was?a 'Bad Boy', and I admit she was crushed. Hey! That's life.Now as I sit back and think of it all I can say is: ??? ? " It was joy, it was fun, we had season in the sun..." (song) ? Today, I presume she hates BMW's, too.And with all the good reasons. I just hope she?got married and didn't have any more break-ups after that, otherwise she would end up riding a donkey just like Moses did in the Holy Land. ? Idriz Ajeti??????? ------------------------------------------???? ??? ? ? ?"Made in America by Americans for Americans" " It has been reported that VW will setup shop in Rocky Mount, North Carolina ? where the German automaker has been rumored to have purchased land ? although VW has yet to confirm that report. The new plant should help VW with its goal of selling?800,000 VW?vehicles in the U.S. by 2018." Driving on I-95, I see a car in front of me with a?bumpersticker which reads: ? ????????????????????????????????????????? ?BUY?AMERICAN!!! Here's my?question: Would you much rather buy/drive a Ford made in Germany or a Volkswagen made in the USA? ?
