FYI. The Wall Street journal did an article last year on domestic versus
foreign parts content. The Journal noted that the Toyota had something like
80% domestic parts content and the Ford Mustang was near 65%. Who is
"ASSEMBLING" cars here and who is building them.
----------------------

Although the parts content and location of build are important statistics, the final vote is where do the profits actually go?? For Toyota, Nissan and even Chrysler they end up overseas........
