“And your money went to Japan. Thanks a lot.”
You really think that matters?
A lot of “foreign” cars are built in the US. My Acura was built in Marysville, Ohio. It employed lots more Americans than Mexico built GM cars.
The Escape is simply a rebadged Mazda Tribute.
Worried about where the money goes if you buy a foreign car? Buy stock in the company.

Actually the Maazda is a rebadged Escape. Your Acura was made in Ohio, the Subaru I referenced was made in Japan which is still partialy an axis of evil.

For about the 10,000th time. These Cars are "assembled" here in the US. Most of the jobs created by the Japanese and others are low-tech final assembly. Many people are foolish enough to believe working for Toyota is no different from working at GM or Ford.
WRONG.
This is what a lot of very stupid and foolish people have been led to believe. Only the most naive and foolish people believe it's not essential have have domestic companies building our major transportation vehicles.
