Interesting View on American Manufacturing
Interesting point of view, so I thought I’d share.
“How is it that GM trucks (made in Canada) and Ford trucks (made in Mexico) can be equated with ‘American manufacturing’ while (presumably) Toyota and Nissan trucks (both made in USA) are ‘imports’? The only imported trucks of major brands are Fords, GMC, Chev, & Dodge. If one wishes to support American manufacturing, one need only buy a truck with a Japanese brand name.” – Dave Burge
