Buy American. Not once in my thirty-six years doing work for the auto industries have I seen a print with a Toyota or any imported companies logo. Nothing is done here, no gages or fixtures. No products are purchased here. Assembly line work and office personnel is all that is needed here. What is Toyota doing for the USA?
Agree with Mr. Sanders. I am Mexican, owner of a Mexican Packaging Company located in North Mexico, and I buy American cars, if possible made in Mexico, but always with faith that the 3 grand will amend mistakes and grow bolder and wiser with much better cars in terms of design quality and efficiency. I have clear that our partners are the American car companies, Asian car makers import from Asia.
The U.S. need to stop losing manufacturing force, and if it still needs to move to lower-salary countries, then use Latin America; this region won’t ever challenge the U.S. …we are U.S. “friends”. Please, for the good of all the region, STOP BUYING CHINA!!!!
