Automotive Journal

There are many out there who are speculating that the auto industry is sinking. In fact, the auto industry has been somewhat of a dying institution for the past several decades. The only difference is that now, America can no longer afford to support it. When I purchased my small size SUV a couple of years ago, I didn’t know anything about cars or the auto industry. I didn’t have the kind of guidance that I needed and failed to do the sort of research that was warranted prior to purchasing a new vehicle. The result? I am now stuck with an SUV that no one wants to buy and which I am paying a high car payment on each month due to this very lack of knowledge.

Perhaps then, there are others out there like me. There are other people who failed to put the time and energy required into researching the auto industry in order to get the car or vehicle that was most practical for them and not necessarily the most “flashy”. The thing is, when we look at car commercials, some commercials appeal to us because they sell us on certain aspects of a vehicle that are important to us or that we think are important. Meanwhile, the bottom line is (or should be) practicality. There is no doubt that I could’ve saved myself thousands of dollars and a lot less complaining if I had chosen to purchase a different type of vehicle. Lesson learned; and I certainly won’t do it again.

Americans seem to be too focused on brand names and keeping up with appearances. We want the bigger, better, faster car with all of the neat features. The other day, I was waiting to park my car when I saw this young woman struggling to park a Cadillac Escalade, which had rims that spun around on their own as well as televisions in the back seat. This wasn’t the first time, however, that I had seen someone with a big vehicle struggling to park it. As I watched this woman (who was by herself in the vehicle) trying to park it several times, I couldn’t help but think about how impractical it was to have such a vehicle.

When I traveled out of the country last year, the vehicles for where I arrived were much smaller than the vehicles that we have in America. Even the SUVs were smaller in size, but no one was complaining. Parking was much easier, and people seemed to get along just fine. Is the sinking auto industry in the United States due to greed and people wanting bigger, better things? Is it not true that you could have a DVD player in a smaller car or even leather seats? We need to rethink how we look at cars. Perhaps that’s where the auto industry can see a turnaround. We need to have more free trade and focus more on a capitalistic society versus one that tries to restrict us to only purchase American made cars, which are bigger and more expensive to keep up. If I can purchase a car overseas for cheaper, then why wouldn’t I? As long as the quality of the vehicle is in tact, I have no reason to complain.
