That's some old school thinking there.

Badge snobbery is dumb.

So are you saying there is no difference between manufacturers and brands in terms of quality and reliability?

There are definitely differences, but to think Nissan is above and beyond Ford (especially today's Ford) is a bit of a stretch. The whole Found On Road Dead thing is definitely an old school train of thought and makes people sound like they're just trying to justify the purchase of their brand to themselves.

With the exception of Chrysler brands for whatever reason, + Audi and BMW , MOST brands run in a similar reliability range with some models being exceptional and others being average good.
