The same unions that are supporting hillary and obama are the reason that US auto makers can't compete. They wonder why jobs go overseas...they got greedy and killed the goose that laid the golden egg.

What is an American Car? A Honda made in Ohio? A Ford made in Mexico or a Chevy made in Canada?

An American car is one built where the profits STAY in the USA....NOT sent to Korea, Japan, China, etc...

So I buy a Ford that is made in Mexico an employees 1500 Mexican workers to help Ford in Detroit, or I buy the Honda made in Ohio employing 1500 Americans, who live here and are paying taxes and spending the money they make in the US.

GO GENERAL MOTORS!!!!

They have my vote any day. I will always own general motors vehicles and so will my kids and all my family. I would walk before I drive or ride in a jap car. I have a fleet of chevrolet pickup trucks in the construction business, nothing compares.

I hate to break it to you, but more Toyotas are made in the US than the "American" cars. Most of the Fords, GMs and Chryslers are made in Canada or Mexico...while the Toyota Camrys, Tundras and Subaru Legacys are made in the US
