Not to get political on a non-political forum, but count me in on this one - I don't buy French either. They made our pilots fly around their country when we bombed Libya in the 1980s (about doubling the time they had to spend in the air), and they have been a constant political problem and non-ally in the various terrorist actions since (Iraqs, Afghanistan, etc.). Send your money to another country. There is some small hope that things will change a little bit with the new government. Thus, with plenty of other quality brands to choose from, I don't buy Michelins.CannondaleMan said:We'll just say that it generally delves into politics and that may be a third rail, so to speak, for some.
No different than me not buying oil from Citgo/Venezuela and other political decisions I make.
