I love those that state that was 60 years ago like it was 160 or 1060 years ago. This is my favorite reply to "that was 60 years ago"... Stand in front of the Holocaust Museum and tell the people going in there that same statement.
One of the main reasons I can't stand VW is that they should have changed their name IMO. I honestly feel like it will always be a tribute to him as long as they have that name.
All this type of thing does is perpetuate the idea that German engineering is superior. Point blank. It will probably sell a ton more Touaregs before it will ever be used in a real military situation.
Call me racist all you want but I have never harmed anyone because of their race. I'd rather have a car built by a person of color in Detroit than a Caucasian in Europe. So, redefine what you call me but it is not racist. They teach kids in school that diversity is a great thing yet we have to hear how Japanese build better things and the Germans engineer better things. Which is it, does a diverse society like the U.S. do better or a more mono-race based country like Japan? I'm getting mixed signals here.
