Agreed. I don't get those tt speak tt the jap cars are so much better yada yada yada. Then in the next sentance they tell me how a majority of my american parts are made globally.

Bottom line. The parts that are outsourced are probably made to spec by the lowest bidder. This goes for all companies of anything.

I will put my gm/ford against any meanufacture tit for tat. The american cars/trucks today are leaps not bounds better than many foriegns and maybe not all.
