Not to mention, it's got to have a hugh hauling capacity to carry around all that iron.

I suppose that's better than the 99% of the Fords, huh? At least the 1% of them made it home, but even they needed some help.

Or maybe they'd need the money to fix it as often... or to hire the tow truck to get it back to the shop.

Even my VW is being built down there. I don't think that they can even produce a decent prostitute.

The 2500 and 3500's are built here.
There are SOME 1500s (extended cab) that are built in Canada.
There are also 1500s made in Mexico for Mexican sales...
There is not ONE Silverado made in Mexico intended for sale in the US.

Actually, I did see one that had two HD logos.
They were attached to the two Harleys that were in the bed.

Actually, I knew mine was made here in the states, but I didn't know that nearly all of them were.

Now Ford, on the other hand, can we say the same thing about them... I doubt it.

i don't think i need to explain why Ford has been forced to close some US plants and build factories elsewhere. just one more downfall from this greedy country. that's as far as i am going with that.
