Tariffs are mostly a tool to protect a country's industry. America's
automobile industry certainly does need protection. A 50 to 100 percent

would give our automobile industry a chance to step up to the plate.

 The auto industry had decades to protect itself.  They continued to make junk while the Japanese made better quality cars.  Tariffs would just allow them to continue making junk.  I've not bought an American car for 25 years and never will again.
 The Big Three and the UAW let it happen.  They could have fixed it.

Our daily driver is a 2009 Toyota Yaris.  The second car is a 2019 Infinity G37X (Nissan), and our camping vehicle is a 2008 Acura RDX (Honda).  We have an old junker 2011 Chevy Aveo5 that hasn't run for years, that I need to sell eventually.  I can't see ever buying another vehicle.
