Addendum:

Fully loaded 2009 Mercury Mountaineer AWD V8 = $43,000

Mercedes-Benz ML-350 start at $48,000

Two luxury brands (so to speak) made in America by Americans.

Both are very comparable - I haven't had a problem with either one.

So why the price difference between these two American-made products?

Has anyone considered that if the Big 3 went bankrupt, as auto consumers, we could be stuck paying even higher prices for what is overall comparable quality from foreign brands made in this country?
