I've never understood brand loyalty or even worse, this overinflated sense of superiority within a given community when it comes to badges, engine selections, or transmission choices.

I've owned a fairly wide myriad of vehicles from several different manufacturers. I have never experienced a bad brand, per se. Every brand has its ups and downs but they also all offer varying degrees of experience. Soon, my wife will be picking up her '21 Charger Hellcat Redeye. Certainly not a car for me but, I can understand why she likes it. Neither one of us is walking into any of our car byuing experiences saying something idiotic like, we need to buy X-brand or that we need to buy American cars. We will put our money where we think its deserved.

I can tell you that after this car, there is a very strong possibility that I will never own another RWD car again. Also, I will more-than-likely stick with DCT's from here on. These are my personal preferences but I understand that circumstances come into play. But brand loyalty? Never.
