[QUOTE="Bill V, post: 999422, member: 54538"] Since you asked... "Made in China", on its own, isn't incorrectly stating anything, as it doesn't indicate what is "made in China". Therefore, it doesn't actually state anything, correctly or incorrectly. Now, if you combine it with "Jeep", to effectively be "Jeep: Made in China", well, that statement, in most of the most common interpretations of intent, is incorrect: --It could be interpretted as saying that Jeep, the company, was founded in China--which is incorrect. --It could be interpretted as saying that Jeep, the company, is now owned by a Chinese-based company--which is incorrect. --It could be interpretted as saying that Jeep, the vehicles, are manufactured either entirely or mostly in China--which are both incorrect. So, since you're purporting that your statement is correct--what other interpretation were you intending? [/QUOTE]
