I only buy American, except for my hand crafted Italian guns and Swiss watches. TFM.

    I’m happy with my Smith & Wesson and vintage Elgin watch, both were made in America.

      I’ve for no qualms with Smith & Wesson for pistols, but something about Benelli shotguns just get me going.

      I go German with cars and guns. HK pistols are possibly the best pistols ever made, specifically the USP .40 and .45.

      HK don’t even scratch the top 5 pistols. If we are talking .45 production, nothing competes with Kimber.

    I try to buy american as much as I can but when it comes to Cars and Cirgars I have to go with German and Cuban

      Most of the good cuban cigar manufacturers fled to the Dominican Republic after Castro took over, so really your just wasting your money on cigars that are mass produced by the state-owned monopoly.

      Cuban Cigars are ridiculously overrated. Many of the manufacturers are operations on other Caribbean Islands and produce the exact same cigars as the Cubans. And I’ve smoked a lot if Cubans while in the other Caribbean Islands.

      Really overrated? Cuban cigars are still professionally rated higher and it’s not just the manufacturing, it’s the seed and tobacco. I agree that Dominican are great but Cubans are still great smokes.

    “And German cars, Cuban cigars, Irish whiskey, and Italian suits.”

      Anything else you’d like to confess? Do I need to go digging for the Russian mail order wife?

      ^ Italian suits. Really? The only respectable Italian suit makers are Brioni & Canalli. Anything else is TGuidoM.

      Lol I forgot about the russian mail-order brides.

      But in all seriousness, who would actually rather drive an american car over a BMW? Trucks don’t count, we’re all fully aware of American superiority in this catagory.

      ^ is that a serious rebuttal to my question?

      There is no consumer car made by an American company that can legitimately compete with the likes of Mercedes and BMW.

      Not really i just wanted to showcase that america still makes the best car, albiet it is outside the perimeters of this debate. That said, I do love my cadillac CTS-V

    I only fly in gulfstream jets, I only ride in bmws, I only wear Brooks Brothers, I only wipe my ass with 100 bills, I only have 4 friends.

      ^Go big or go home small fry. Flying is statistically the safest way to travel, so I don’t do it. Where’s the thrill in that? TFTC. I will never get in that nazi sleigh you call a car. TPatriotM. Brooks Brothers is off the rack and is reserved for your analysts and associates. Keep chugging away peasant. I dress in a bespoke suit and shirt accentuated by my vintage Patek Phillipe. You better save your bills, I’m coming after your daddy’s company. First, just as an activist shareholder, then, corporate takeover status. I will buy your 4 friends.

      Flying is actually not the statistically safest way to travel. That is a myth. Per 1,000 hours in air versus 1,000 hours in a car or train, accidents are much more likely in an aircraft.

      GA: 7.46 fatal accidents and 13.1 fatalities per 100M miles
      driving: 1.32 fatal accidents and 1.47 fatalities per 100M miles

    I rock a richard mille and my dad gave me his Ferrari 360 after he retired it for a different car. I also drink Patron Burdeos. Also wanted to say that a blazer with shorts is fucking stupid.
