Larry’s View

Larry’s view on any and everything.

Cars made in america

Yes, we do still have cars made in America. However, you will find these factories are dwindling with the lack of demand. It has long been a joke that Ford actually means found on road dead. Of course this is not true. You will find many of the Ford cars made previously have been manufactured with endurance in mind and do survive. Today we are finding more and more demand for foreign cars in the market. This means that factories such as Ford and other cars made in America are suffering.

Ford and GMC have recently cut the jobs in their factories causing problems among the economy in America. Even with the demand for the cars made in America they are finding production costs are high. You will also learn that most cars made in America have imported parts. A car is not truly completely American. It is actually the company making the profit that is American. When deciding in cars made in America are actually made in America you have to look at two things. Do you believe made in America is the headquarters of the company and those making the profit? Or do you believe that it is the actual parts of the cars that make them made in America.

Chrysler is one of the cars made in America when you consider a lot of the work is being done in Mexican factories. The parts and the cars are being manufactured just across the USA border, still keeping the process in some part of America. You also have to realize that most cars are not going to be 100% made in America, but they do still supply jobs to Americans. We may not see as many jobs for Americans as in the past with these cars made in America, but we are still trying to take care of our own people who need jobs.

The parts that make up a car are many. You will find that a speedometer or even the brakes have several pieces to the whole. This means that the majority of parts may be made in America, but there are still going to be parts that are created outside the country. Cars made in America are not fully American any more, which may be a cause for some concern with some of Americans. On the other hand production costs have lowered making the cost of some vehicles a little less.
