Oh, and I've been to Praha. Wonderful place. Had a great time. Enjoyed the beer.

I don't even know what the heck that is.

Nice. I would like to have old American pickup truck with modern internals one day.
Next time, switch from beer to girls, you will be even happier.

Anybody here want to play the game of guessing how much of it is made in China, Japan, Brasil, Korea, Mexico and Canada?

Almost all of it, a Toyota Camry bought here in the U.S. has more domestic parts than the F150 and that's a fact. You can check a car’s domestic parts content right on the window sticker. Usually, the factory where it’s made is also listed on the sticker. Or, you can find it on a sticker inside the driver’s door.

Also off topic, but for some reason I love the assembly line for our cars

My comment has nothing to do with America specifically but rather the bigotry involved in that viewpoint. You could replace the "anything made in America" part with any other country and my point would still stand.

Hating on a car because some of the components might have been made in a certain country, is moronic. Even if said person hates America as a whole or whatever the country maybe, it should not encompass everyone, nor everything from that country.

Now, not liking a certain manufacturer due to their design language or reliability issues with their vehicles I can appreciate, but not disliking something just because of its origin.

@FRSBRZGT86FAN (Won't let me quote your post)

Bingo! The same applies to the Mustang as well.
Car "manufacturers" don't "manufacturer" much anymore. They buy the parts from whoever meets the specs for the lowest price and that is frequently off shore. They really should be called Car Assemblers now.
