Yup. Difference between being brand loyal and brand blind.
Brand loyal: "I understand the issues, recognize them, and will fix whatever issues there are."
Brand blind: "N'uh-huh! There ain't no issues!"
They come in all circles.
Got a buddy who feels this way about Ford. The Fox body is the greatest car ever built, his 6.0L diesel is the greatest diesel ever made, if it doesn't wear the Blue Oval it's absolute junk.
