Cool Re: Just a thought.....?

But where will they be made? Design is one thing, engineering and production is another.

Hi Greg,
One of the men they hired was my ex chief steward . We stay in contact . They are telling them this site was picked as they( Goodyear) wanted it close enough to Akron-Canton Area that is would be easy to could jump in a car and in a couple 3 hours be up there, but not so close that Akron would be a crutch or too much of an influence . But..... Goodyear is also are making them aware to have their passports ready, as when these new designs are complete ,they will be expected to go to wherever the tires are produced and help them get the equipment up and running.....So you are correct....

Post Re: Just a thought.....?

This topic is one I've written about since the late '80's (since I've cared about MADE IN THE USA for practically my whole adult life). I am more glad to hear about the Goodyear operation, as I use their "American Made" Wrangler tires on my Chevy Colorado daily driver/tow vehicle. It's sad that we stopped caring about where our goods and services were made, and now we've been paying the price for it. This country of ours was made great because we made most of what we consumed, and I feel we can be this way again but we have to demand it! I feel if we made more of what we consume, we'd do a better job of supporting not only our country, but our favorite sport. I'm game, how about the rest of you???

p.s. There's strength in numbers, and it's being proven every day that no-one makes better products for Americans, than Americans!!!!
