A couple questions about American car companies...?

Question

Why do American car companies constantly advertise speed, wrecklessness and 'machoism' when it comes to their cars, when speeding and wreckless driving are against the law?

What is wrong in this scenario?...American car companies advertise speed and wrecklessness...and their business is failing. Japanese car companies advertise gas mileage and safety, and their business is booming. Why don't American car companies understand this?

Answer 1

America is a capitalist republic. Profit first, laws second, with lawyerspeak to bridge the gap. American businesses don't like change and are filled with arrogance and pride, so they won't change their approach until there's no workers left to lay off and they figure out who besides them is to blame for their failures. Big business is destroying America through brainwashing. The American government belongs to the people, but we still insist on giving it to a few people who can give us shiny things.

Answer 2

Bill Ford's recent commercial specifically mentions safety
and Ford's ownership of Volvo the leader in safety.

FYI- Little Toyota's and Honda's are unsafe.
When hitting anything, mass and weight are your friends.
The more crush space you have to absorb the impact,
the better. I would put any full size American sedan against
small Japanese toy cars. If a truck runs a stop light,
what would you put your kid in? A honda civic or a Mercury
grand Marquis?

Answer 3

I don't think advertisements have much to do with any ones car buying decisions.
The reason the Japanese cars are selling so well is because they are better cars and have better trade-in value.

Answer 4

I don't know, but I've seen Mazda Nissan and VW adds that were as bad as anything for being inappropriate safety wise.
