So how many billions have they taken out of the US economy? How many jobs lost? How much lost tax revenue? That 2.8 is chump change. The automotive trade deficit with Japan was $42 Billion last year. So go back to feeling guilty.

But it is nice seeing Ice supporting the non union labor force

My Dad worked for Ford for 42 years. I have bought two brand new Fords in my lifetime.
Maybe I will buy another someday. With only 11 percent of the American workforce unionized it is hard to go around buying union-made products. I do not have time to waste.

I would posit that Canadian cars are mostly Japanese transplants...I know Honda assembles there too.

In this kind of economy America being an net exporter of anything is good news.

Oh yeah my UK assembled Honda CRV is will hit 265,000 on the way home tonight.

hurray for me!

Me too, unless I'm around left wingers, who I poke with sticks just because I can.

Cheers!

So what your saying is that you were born and raised on Ford money and you buy Honda's, good for you

BTW, I was as well and so are my children...

Well how many Fords do I have to buy in my life to pay it back?
