I think what will be most interesting is the Emergency Measures we soon take, just to keep Americans alive. For example: Air bags, fuel injection, fancy safety features are all great to have for cars, but they’re all (likely) loaded with Chinese content. But there was a day, not too long ago, when they didn’t have those ‘features’, but they still moved people and goods.

Some parts can be pulled off junkers for a while. Would NOT want to own a new foreign car right now...

Didn’t obamy get rid of all the old junkers? I always suspected there was more to that than what was told.

Auto manufacturing is all scrambled up now. Making Toyota here, Chevy in Mexico. I’ll be buying tires and brake pads for everything this week. Tune up parts for all. Will be getting that small freezer that we’ve wanted for a while. New cell phone that has the capability to text over wifi since we don’t get a cell signal here and not all phones have the capability.
