<prompt> Human: I am asking this question as I have heard a lot of frugal people, and savers buy American cars due to them being cheaper.I have a Honda 1998 CR-V, I love it, its truly a tank, but when that puppy dies I am swaying towards getting a Honda again. I know HondaToyota, etc. are a bit more expensive, but I think it would be worth the extra cash upfront and purchase like a 2008 Honda CRVCivic when that CR-V dies, or should I actually even consider American cars? Just wanted an opinion from my other frugal friends in this subreddit.  <response>: Neither is inherently better than the other. Select a vehicle based on your needs, price range, and test drives... not simply because its domestic or imported.
