This is not a good question to be asked here. You will get as many different answers as there are posters. I will add my opinion. As an experienced mechanic, I have made a few observations. First, I do not like foreign cars for several reasons. For the record, I define a foreign car as one whose manufacturer is originated from another country regardless of where they were built or of domestic content. The parts as a general rule are overpriced as compared to domestic brands. Second, foreign cars are much more difficult to service and repair. Third, I believe in supporting our own economy and workers rather than those of another nation. Yes, I know that there will be a bit of flak on this one. Still, the profits from a Ford stay in this country for the most part. Profits from a Toyota go to the people that brought up Pearl Harbor.
This much you can be certain of: there will be good and bad in every make and model. Sometimes you just get a bad car. Sometimes, it will run forever. I suggest that you make your choice based on your own needs and preferences. Regardless of whose opinion you value, you (or your wife) will ultimately be the ones to live with that decision.
Be warned, though. There is no guarantee that the car you get will be trouble free or that you will be totally satisfied. There is also no guarantee that you will not be satisfied. No matter what make you decide on. You pay your maney and you take your chances.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
