Default Re: Where from?

Even paying much more doesn`t guarantee getting US made stuff. For many years I have paid 3 times as much for Red Wing work boots, rather than offshore stuff from a big box store. Imagine my suprise when a couple of years ago, my new $230. Red Wings said made in China! When I went back to the store, they told me that indeed, some of there models were now being made overseas, but the quality was still good, and so far, 2 years later, they are still holding up well, but it still pisses me off.
Even some of the Mac and Snap On tools I see when the tool trucks stop by work are made oversees. I guess its all part of the WalMart mentality, which is why I never set foot in one of their stores.
And the fact that many of the younger drivers, (those that actually take the trouble to get their drivers licenses these days!), for the most part have no brand loyalty to any American Auto Manufacturers, and in fact seem to take pleasure in bashing the domestics. Sad.
