How can American car makers fix the redneck/for old people image?
If you talk about a rustang, slowmaro, mentallychallenger, euros and japs joke about how you fuck your sister.
If you talk about Lincoln or caddillac they talk about how they are for old people and are now imitation luxury.
The only American cars that get any respect are really old ones it seems.

I think the best option is for GM, Ferd and the like to start putting their cars in the hands of movie characters to broaden their appeal like what James Bond did for Aston and BMW.
GM tried with transformers but that movie was for kids who cant even fucking drive and the movie was shit as well.
If Tony Stark, John Wick, James Bond etc all drove a C7 or a CTS V for the past years do you think the brands would be more respected in the mass market?

how does it feel that cars and trucks are going down the same path as weapons?

>fossil fuel powered cars will be illegal
>eco shit will be mandatory
>all cars will be connected to the internet making everything you do in the car illegal
>government or law enforcement will have total control over your vehicle
>everything will be automated, including driving
>manual transmissions will need federal permits
>importing/exporting cars or trucks will be illegal
>motorcycles will be outlawed
>cars will continue to become uglier and uglier until they have no faces anymore and become soulless hunks of high grade plastic
>metal materials are illegal
>a new car will cost over 100,000 UN Credits (by this time the USD no longer exists)

this is our children's future

>If indictments are levied against more people for conspiracy, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and the UAW will find themselves embroiled in a scandal that could eclipse most others in recent automotive history.

>The 42-page document outlines a multimillion-dollar conspiracy, alleging UAW and FCA officials used embezzled funds to support lavish lifestyles involving first-class trips, $37,500 solid-gold pens and a $350,000 Ferrari 458 Spider.

>The indictment specifically mentions at least eight unnamed people while vaguely mentioning "other" groups of people. Separately, federal officials announced fraud charges against former FCA financial analyst Jerome Durden, who is accused of creating false tax returns to hide payments to Holiefield, Iacobelli and other beneficiaries who were not identified.

This scandal could make ""emission cheating"" looking a fuckin joke.

Hello all, I have a 2002 Ford Mustang and the fuel filler neck is rusted out

New ones are about $80 plus another $50 to have it installed so I'm not too keen on doing that

Do you guys know any sort of sealant/tape adhesive that is gasoline proof? Preferably one that can be found in local Home Depot/auto parts store?

Pic related it's me when I found out my fuel filler neck was leaking.
