A lot of Japanese steel has been used in our commercial and warships
since the 70s. At the time they were beating up the US steel producers
pretty badly as they were lower priced and said to be of higher
quality. I guess that's the "defence" [sic] industry they spoke about.

Maybe the same as the 2017 Camry which has a grill thats reminiscient of the
cow-catchers on the old steam train engines. Makes one wonder what they were
smoking.
However, if you hit a small deer with that thing, it might stick there instead
of coming up into the windshield.

Add to that the current scandal over the steel that is used in cars, airplanes,
and other important products in Japan:

Saw one of these on the street during lunch this week. I really dislike the
grille treatment/design.

While FFing through the ads on my DVR the other night I caught an involuntary
glimpse of this Lexus. Why anyone would want something that looks like this is
beyond me. Is this harkening back to the early days of really ugly Japanese
auto styles or what?
