[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3409169, member: 5412"] I was incensed when Lee Iacocca took over the CEO job at the Chrysler Group after leaving Ford. He was a big champion of buy American, beating his chest publicly and only allowed what he called US built vehicles to be parked close to the factory's employee doors while "foreign built" vehicles had to park in the back of the lots requiring the owners to make a long hike to get to work. He did it as a sales gimmick to sell vehicles and was a master at that. A couple buddies pointed that out to me when they bought vehicles from Chrysler. It wasn't hard to find out that a pretty good percentage of parts were made in Canada, Mexico, and Japan even before the internet. [/QUOTE]
