   Anyone else more excited about Chinese models than American models these days? Big thing for me is affordability.

      No, because I'd rather not support our economic and military rivals.

         I'm Canadian so this sentiment has little value in 2026 unfortunately.

            Canadians warming up to China makes me think of Germany becoming increasingly reliant on Russia in the 2010s.

               Yes, someone can still blow up a pipe and they look the other way. On the other hand, you can also draw parallels to themselves becoming increasingly reliant on US vs UK in the past.

               Murica just has a MAGA problem. We can still be friends if and when you sort that out. Us Canadians like most of you quite a lot.
