Actually, it kinda is complicated. If you look at the build sheet for a
new "American" car, the engine or tranny could be built in France,
Mexico, Canada or even China. Yet the "foreign" cars have their plants
in the good 'ol USA.
A Ford hybrid is about 50% foreign parts. A Chevy Equinox has an engine
built in China. A Mazda pickup is built by Ford. Older Isuzus may have
a GM engine. A Chevy car may have had an Isuzu engine. A Chevy could
have been a joint venture between Toyota, Daewoo or who knows whatever.
Dodge has their parts from who-knows-where. Where does it stop and how
can the "American" car companies bitch about the foreign invasion when
they have jumped in bed with the foreigners?
