I think every vehicle manufactured these days has parts from all over the world but people still see GM cars, for example, as domestic and will only buy domestic American cars. GM recently purchased, or at least purchased a controlling share of, Daewoo based in Korea. GM announced it will be dropping some of their lines, one I recall is Oldsmobile. Someone on this list posted a link to an article about how JZD thought dropping these established names was a very bad idea and that GM should badge-engineer some cars, essentially importing these cars and labeling them with well-known strong brand names. That could further blur the lines of imports and domestics. Please let me know if I am stating this incorrectly.

And when I was looking at a Chrysler Sebring, part of it was made in Mexico! I think the "World Economy" is already partially in existence, and the labels of "import" and "domestic" should be discarded. Then again as far as I'm concerned insurance companies can all take a long jump, anyway. *snarl* - Farrar, screwed by State Farm, in New Orleans ------------------------ Yahoo!
