My main point of that list is that many of those saying these cars are crap, rubbish, death traps what ever are themselves driving or putting their kids into a car that would most probably come from that list ..... hence the glass house and stone throwing.

There are Standards here in Australia that will only allow cars that comply and these are very strict. These do comply with these standards .... they may not be everyones cup of tea but they do suit some and are an option for some small businesses who do not want to fork out double for a similar ute or something that might be 10 years old ..... but then that should be fairly obvious I would think
