very nice shiny Toyota. Made in America by Americans,

Beg to differ...bolted together by Americans. Toyota's headquarters are located, if I am mistaken in Tokio, Japan not USofA.
Therefore the profits of the venture goes straight to Japan, not Alabama. Yes, they are paying well I've heard, but to call Toyota, Honda, VW, BMW, Audi etc. domestic brands, that's a stretch!

You like many others, fell for this BS from the manufacturers, that if they set shop in the US, using American work force, it will make their cars US made, and claim all kinds of things.

Walter P. Chrysler, Ransom Olds, David Buick, the Dodge Brothers those are the REAL domestic and American made cars!

But the lion's share of the $$ are spent in the US. Face it, GM and (especially) Chrysler can't compete. They're history.

Therefore the profits of the venture goes straight to Japan, not Alabama.
