the reason why everything is made overseas now is because of rules, regulations and taxation. get rid of those and we'll see high paying jobs coming back to the US.

The high paying jobs will not come back. If those jobs come back it will be for much lower pay. This wasn't about jobs and where they went, it's about the whole idea of an American made car being the best when the reality is vastly different.

^^ this

and honestly..I love my bmw's but not now that theyre made in mexico
I like american trucks tho, but mainly fords and dodge

and I like jeep but only straight 6 cherokees or wranglers...

so..idk what my point is..

I think my point was..what a pos gm is, shame on them for covering up an ignition problem that cost people their lives and not recalling the cars sooner
and I dont get the "buy american"! hype when their is nothing even american about the vehicle AND its a cheap POS that could potentially get you killed

I didn't read the article. it wouldn't show up unless I take my phone off of private browsing. so don't know what it was about. I'm making a general statement on jobs being ship overseas and products being made overseas. And I stand behind what I've stated.

GMC stands for government motors company, that is all


I own a Polaris RZR 800 which has a tiny American Flag sticker on the back and the sales guy swears Polaris is made In the USA. I saw the crate it came out of before it was built, big bold black letters "Made in Mexico" stamped right on it... wtf?

The Toyota Tundra is being made in Texas. Toyota chose Texas for the cred.
