[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 247082, member: 1024"] Yep, it is sad. My husband and I generally buy American as much as we can. We have always bought American cars, but we have found that the majority of the parts are made overseas. As much as I hate to say it, I have seriously considered a foreign made car, because with all of the American made cars I've owned over the years, once they hit about 50k miles, everything begins to slowly fall apart. My friends who have bought foreign cars have not had near the troubles we've had with ours. I would love to own a car for three years and NOT have squeaks and squeals for a change. OTH, husband finds that US made tools are better than tools made anywhere else. HOWEVER, (and there is that parenthetical always, isn't there?), because of the cheaper made tools from other countries, it is becoming harder and harder to find US made tools. There are only a few companies that still make tools in the US. Though they are far superior to the non-US made tools, they are considerably more expensive. [/QUOTE]
