US owned, and we save $400 million in taxpayer dollars

Hmmm, kinda hard to argue with that. I say let Ford build the trucks (in the USA)!

I am sure there is more to the story than saving $400 million. In fact, I suspect that the savings is illusory, but that the claim is made for PR purposes. It is very, very unlikely that a maqnufacturer in Wisconsin could underbid a manufacturer in Sealy. The cost structure in Texas is just too much lower. In Texas, Sealy would be a low cost location. I’m betting that there is something else going on.
