Not really you just gave out a valid opinion. But I don't see the need of anyone has to justify on what they own and drive for any given reason. If you only want to own American cars well that's your right to. I own 2 aussie built GM cars and they do the job really well. :-) -- Regards Dan. 00 VX SS 273 Rwkw of unforced mumbo.

Horse Shit!
Go to any steel mill! All the equipment is either from Germany- Austria or Japan. Even the American refractory companies are "consolidated' with European ones. It is absolutely crazy that the American Steel worker makes steel using imported equipment and complains about imported steel.

Hi,
Yup. Americans don't have an ability to make machines to make other machines. U.S. overdid it to herself. Like U.S. no longer produce vacuum tubes. Demand for tubes is still there tho.
