Are you sure about that?
Who drives up behind someone and thinks "I wonder what kinda grades their child gets"?
Come on now Paul, is that what you really thought?
I have to admit, while I've thought a lot of things while driving behind someone, "I wonder what kinda grades their child gets?" has never been one of them.

sqs, that's probably because I feel like I know you better than the next door neighbor.
MoFarmBoy & Pesky, I hate to burst your bubble but, my wife's Toyota is assembled right here in the good old USA and my Ford Transit Connect is made and assembled in Turkey. I know, I cried too.

American made has a whole different meaning when it comes to cars. Sure it can be a Dodge, Ford, GM but that has little meaning when they are being made in Mexico or other countries and have more foreign parts on them than a Toyota or a Honda. I personally think when it comes to cars "buy American" means nothing more than buyinga car that is run by an American Company. The car or its parts are in no way guaranteed "American"
Buy a vehicle that works best for your business and how you will use it. Either way you will end up with a vehicle that is in some way helping an American.

Nate, that last sentence is the most intelligent one I've ever read about the domestic verses foreign car battle. Not only does the sale of a foreign vehicle put money in the USA coffers but who do you think buys stock in all those foreign companies.
