Surprisingly, it is not. This is really a very American thing to say, I am not sure why. It is also political, and used to bring about some emotional gravitas to whatever you are saying, even if it has no application whatsoever, like buying luxury vehicles.

I said that to convey that practical family considerations (car is dependable, safe, requires little maintenance) outweigh things like "Elon is a good or bad person" and "I do/don't like his participation in American politics". When I didn't have a family, I could buy a car based on looks or speed or the politics of the CEO.

I didn't mean to imply that my reasoning has more gravitas than someone else's, it's that my priorities may be different because of my situation. Different priorities are fine! Hopefully there's a car for everyone.
