Its really not the consumers fault its this countries economy system

Even if we still only purchased only American made goods the large corporations would still outsource.. its not economical with today’s minimum wages and cost of living in the states to employee Americans... Its the bottom line.. Granted its just a house of cards and will lead to a depression ..Oh wait we are on the verge of one.....

Its sad to see but most major companies are in a constant battle to keep there doors open.. They have to cut cost

Really if you look at our government as a business they would have bankrupted years ago... There has been a ton of bad ceo's that managed the tax payer’s money poorly to pursue meaningless endeavors...
But this isn't a business it's a country so you can't close the doors and lay everyone off...

Its sad it really is and if you look to long at the big picture your liable to move to Canada :D

Ah the good old american vs. foreign vehicle debate. Now by "american" do you mean "North American" or United States? What about all the "American" vehicles made in Mexico? Or Japanese vehicles assembled in Texas? WHAT WHAT WHAT???? All I know is I cant afford to drive a vehicle that leaves me with a hole in my wallet so I stopped buying so called "American"......


And one more tidbit before you burn me at the stake. My father is a die hard "buy american" and yes I get the comments all the time. He stopped a few months ago after his "American" pick up with 20,000 miles is a heap that wouldnt pass inspection. Mind you he is pretty particular when its comes to maintenance too......

Last time I was in Greenville (SC) BMW was hiring 500 more people which translates into 2500 net new jobs for the area.

Toyota has made vehicles in the USA for nearly 50 years. They have been investing heavily in new production sites.

The automotive industry in this country is alive and strong, it's just now growing in the South where there's less union influence.
