I agree that it's too bad that Toyota (I myself being a big fan) fucked things up lately with all these recalls.
That said, I think that itself is the reason for the appearance of preference for American cars. It's too bad that we can't take more pride in our cars and want to buy them more, but they're of such poor quality, that we can't help but direct our dollars elsewhere.
Also, I find it amusing that a lot of Americans with that sort of redneck "I only buy American" attitude either fail to see, or simply ignore the fact that many "import" brands (like Toyota) actually produce more American jobs in the production of some vehicle models than the "domestic" manufacturers do!
Determining what vehicle to buy based on the "support US jobs" premise goes far beyong looking at the emblem on the hood.
