      Really? I thought the competition these days was coming from China, not from Nissan

        Problem is - Chinese cars don’t make it to us. Because tariffs.

        So end result is less competition on us market and higher prices.

      Trump’s tariffs are going to cause higher prices. I hardly think going from 40 auto companies to 39 will make much of a difference. Especially, compared to the problem I mentioned.
