My local mechanic had an interesting thought on where quality was going. He claimed that with a lot of parts being sourced from various suppliers around the globe these days that was sort of equalizing quality. Japanese cars not having as high of quality as they used to and American cars coming up in quality. Sort of meeting in the middle. That sounds like bean counters buying adequate quality for the price winning out over engineering for really good quality.
