Isn't Walmart already the poor man's Walmart?

Aldi has quite a success in the US now. Walmart tried to get into the German market, OTOH. They give up after wasting a lot of money. There was more competition then they could take.

I owned a VW Golf ... best car I ever had.

I don't care about what anybody says, german automobiles are the best (for a while I was thinking of switching to a Toyota, but after those incidents with the sudden acceleration, no thanks).

Now I'm stuck with a french piece of shit that nobody wants to buy :)

German cars [1] were lagging behind Asian cars in reliability a few years ago AFAIK. I heard they have caught up. Skodas should be nice, too. Skoda comes from the Czech Republic, but were bought by VW some time ago.

[1] Opel, I am looking at you!

Wow, what an idiotic statement that is.
