I have never owned an American car. I have always been far more interested in reliability and good gas mileage than anything else. My first two cars were VW bugs. Then a Subaru, an Infiniti, another Subaru, and finally Hondas. My current car is a 2017 Honda Fit. Standard transmission, for what that's worth.

As for your desire to buy a vehicle built by American union workers, you might want to research specific cars very carefully to make sure what you want to buy really is made that way.
