Trump announces 'permanent' tariffs on foreign cars
The US will impose tariffs on foreign-made cars starting on April 2, US President Donald Trump said. One institute has said the tariffs could raise the price of a car in the US by thousands of dollars.
Please europe, I beg you. 100% tariff on those fucking emotional support trucks.
Im going to start blowing them up soon otherwise.
Do we actually have clowns buying them over here? I didn't even think they were road legal anywhere
In poland theres more of them each month. I fucking hate it so much.
Assholes in „rural” areas (10mins to city center) buy them and then parade in their fucking tanks. They are always the most polished and detailed cars on the intersection. I drive a larger car myself (not a suv, a big coupe) but it looks like a toy compared to a dodge ram. Those fuckers wouldn’t even be able to see a matiz in front of them.
I live in a small rural town in Ireland. I'm seeing more and more ridiculously huge pickups that are simply too big for the parking spots. They're fucking awful
There's one in the garage of my apartment building. All i can think about when I see it is what a giant douche bag you have to be to buy something like that while living in a big city.
They are already tariffed af. Due to emissions.
The F-150 is imported into Europe, but you can not buy them at normal Ford dealerships, because they are so unpopular. Indeed most Fords sold in Europe are actually designed in Germany....
Is he really doing that stupid fist all the time?
He doesn’t have the upper body strength for a full heil.
He has to hide the back of his hand, because the super healthy old man is not so healthy.
He's just showing Americans it's fisting time.
I always see it as him unknowingly showing solidarity for the African community
So what defines a “foreign” car? BMW builds the X3 in South Carolina and VW builds their SUVs in Tennessee. However Ford builds the Bronco in Mexico. So which one will be tariffed?
Still not buying American trash cars. Of all the vehicles I've ever owned, American cars were by far the worst. I'll stick to my Japanese autos thank you very much. They know how to make a reliable car that punches above its class. I don't give two shits if I have to pay a tariff.
A lot of Japanese cars are made in the US. Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Subaru, Mazda, Hyundai and Kia all have manufacturing facilities in the US.
So do several German manufacturers. Most of the BMW X cars are assembled in America.
Yup, that's why I avoid them too. My current car was made with quality and care in Japan, as will my next car.
Lol good luck with that.
Trumpcession will kick in and hopefully kill the republican party.
Mhm pay 25% more for a good car or buy a swasticar...
Reciprocal tariffs on American cars honestly sounds like a pretty good idea now...
American cars are already near impossible to sell in Europe. Terrible fuel economy, to large and bad turning radius for European cities with small roads, things like cyber trucks and other oversized pickups are probably not road legal because of pedestrian crash safety regulations.
don't forget shit quality
Nobody wants American cars. I guess up until recently Tesla was the exception, but that was already changing before Musk decided to go full mask off.
Curious and difficult times ahead.
