I feel like the American car builders could have suffered through the malaise 
era if build quality had been decent but considering the truly awful build 
quality of the time its no surprise people looked to the east.Also considering 
what crappy cars asia was producing if the Americans had kept their build 
quality high the asian makers would have never gotten a foothold.My in-laws 
have a Ford Fusion that is an excellent car, probably the best made vehicle 
they've ever had and at least as good as any Toyota but the resale value pales 
when next to a Camry.

It was the beginning of the end for merkun iron too.  1968 cars had 
rudimentary smog crap hung on em.  By 1974, merkun iron was fully 
smothered and were total crap.
