Thank you Stu-Rock, I don't know where cs1984 gets his info, but he needs to de-friend that person quick. The big-3 have laid-off more Americans than Honda or Toyota even emply. Tons of US autos are still built in the US, and tons of foreign autos are not. Try to buy a new Jeep that isn't built in the US, I dare you.

It's ridiculous anyway. The reason people buy foreign cars is not because it *might* be built in the US, and the reason people avoid US cars is not because they *might* be built in a different part of North America. I would venture that over 90% of people couldn't even tell you where their car is manufactured.

Perception is everything. I live in one of the counrty's wealthier cities, and if you drive a domestic you will be questioned, it's not socially acceptable. If you tell someone you drive a domestic, the first thing they'll say is "Why?"
