[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 6932472, member: 549629"] Japanese auto makers found that loophole a long long time ago. Do you really believe Toyota's are made in USA, or merely the final assembly? Car makers started doing it to avoid import tariffs. Traditionally import tariffs are a lot higher for fully assembled vehicles than it is for the parts that would go together to make that car. So Toyota imports the parts in just small enough pieces to avoid those tariffs, finishes the assembly here, and advertise "made in USA". Thousands of stupid Americans buy into it, thinking they are supporting the US economy. [/QUOTE]
