One other factor they have to consider in America is who is buying and using
the car.  In our lawsuit-ridden society, a manufacturer has to ensure that
thier car will be safe and have low emissions for its predicted lifetime.
This is in spite of the car-care habits of most Americans that are as
follows:

    Tune-ups:  only needed when the car stops running completely.

    Motor: must have enough cylinders to enable the car to go at least
25,000 miles with only 2 firing.

    Tires: only replace when belts are showing.  Never pay more than $35.00
each.  Bent rims are not a problem unless tires leak down completely in < 24
hours.

    Brakes: make service appointment for next month when metal-on-metal.
*Never* change fluid.  If "ABS" light flashes, mechanic will tell you "it's
a computer problem" and cannot be fixed economically.  Fix by strategically
placing electrical tape to obscure light.

    Suspension: never replace shocks/joints/bushings/etc. unless car won't
steer at all.

...and so on!
