[QUOTE="Tom Schindler, post: 947619, member: 56140"] Here is something interesting... Disclaimer: I do not support NAFTA and feel it has been a failure to America and her people. With that being said, vehicles produced under NAFTA are considered domestic made (I don't agree with it) but the numbers show something interesting... Ford sold 1,741,343 vehicles, year to date. Of those vehicles, zero were imported. Toyota sold 1,586,107 vehicles, year to date. Of those vehicles, 341,205 were imported cars and 178,805 were imported trucks. That comes out to 520,010 imported vehicles. Using some simple math, about 30% of Toyota vehicles sold were imported from Japan or somewhere outside of North America. Toyota takes advantage of NAFTA like GM and Ford does, so that point is moot. It still does not change the fact that buying a Ford is supporting our neighbors more than buying a Toyota or Honda. (Honda sales included 12.7% imported vehicles) I am in Florida on vacation with an intestional flu. I am feeling like crap and seriously considering cutting this trip short. I am done with this thread. My point was made. Tom [/QUOTE]
