Assembled in America, is different then built in America

If it hadnt been for the uproar the Mustang
clubs raised the late 80's the Ford Probe mazda built piece of shit would
have had
the Mustang badge on it. Chrysler has been in bed with Mitsubishi since the
70's.
Easy to spot Mitsi powered Mopars, their the ones doing duty as mosquito
control
vehicles. You want American, my Caviler, and every other model with the 2.2
ltr
engine and 4 spd automatic transmission made in Tonawanda NY. The only 2
other places the engine/tranny is built is the plant in Tenn., and in
Kiaserslautern Germany.
None of the German engines are used in US cars. So far the little bugger
has been a good vehicle.
we put 45,000 miles on it last year, no problems at all. It aint a rocket
ship, but it can get out
of its own way right handily. She was assembled in Ohio. V-6 engines are
getting
dicey, expect to see Buick V-6 being made at Buick plants to start appearing
here. On side
note, Buick number one selling car in china. Problem is only buicks built
there are being sold there.
Speaking of Ford, RIP Windsor engines.
Will give ford and Chrysler some credit tho, the new Mustang is sharp, the
new Challenger
coming out is absolutely beautiful. The Camero, well, side view is "ok",
the tail is pretty
good, but that nose, is ugly as sin, and reminds me of the mid 70's toyota
celica gt, remember
the one that looked like a 2/3rds 68 mustang fast back with it's "smiley
face"grill? I am
beginning to think GM hired all the un-employed AMC designers.
