As much as I love the old iron today's Global Economy and hodgepodge of manufacturers doing elements of design and operations around the globe makes "domestic" a relative term. Know that everyone already knows this, just thought it needed to be stated.

I think we all get that part Jim. Heck, I have a huge, and I mean huge Honda plant an hour from here(Ohio). But one will never set in my driveway. Wife is forbidden also, but she would not want one anyway. Some of us are just so hard headed that if it doesn't say ,Ford GM or Mopar on it, we will not have any part of it. Once in a while the big three tries to slide one in on us by building elsewhere and badging it as a domestic, but I'm not falling for that either. I started this thread just wondering how many people think like us old diehards...I'm guessing not very many.

I have owned nothing but GM products, 1 exeption the motorhome I purchased last year has a 460 ford in it. Couldn't pass up the deal. I will NEVER own a foreign car. I use to be a hard core GM guy, but with all the foreign cars running around I am just happy to see people driving anything from the big 3.

I made the mistake of buying a new Datsun Lil Hustler pickup in 1973. Only kept it about 6months. Couldn't live with myself. Never again.

It amazes me how Europe and Japan have completely screwed up the automotive industry.Every car has four doors and looks just like the one next to it.Detroit has shot itself in the foot at times also.What kind of idiot would drop Pontiac and replace it with Saab?
