You don't need a lot of marketing to prefer a basic but decent car for a third (or less) of the price of the average American car (read: truck). American cars are bloating like crazy, and even if the tracking is insane on a chinese car, it's no better on a domestic car. The American (and European) auto industry needs to get its act together and stop blaming consumers for not happily donating them stupid amounts of money and data
