Although I understand the concept of being opposed to buying Chinese products, your post has little or no relevance to the topic posted. As to what concerns the quality of the Chinese trucks, it is true, it's not great yet, but they are getting there. Give them a year or two to get rid of the last inperfections and they will move in on the market of Korean trucks... fast! In five years or so, their quality (and consequentially their price) will increase and they will be able to compete against our 2nd class quality trucks. With over 10.000 CB trucks exported by the top 4 manufacturers Heli, Hangcha, Baoli and Hytsu, they are market tested at this very moment and adjustments are made upon dealer remarks.
And towards the remark of all companies being government owned: Hangcha, Baoli and Hytsu are privately owned and they all have JV partners from either Japan or the United States.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
