It's really amazing that US tech and innovation does not apply to the auto industry anymore.

History quiz:
What company was responsible for both the Redstone ballistic missile that launched Alan Shepard into space, *AND* the S-I first stage of the Saturn I launch vehicle?

I was thumbing through some old magazines while waiting for a friend to get out of a doctor's appointment, and learned from Road & Track that the Japanese have (auto) R&D facilities set up all over the U.S. doing truly groundbreaking work.

I left wondering, "is it possible their Americans are better than our Americans?"
