Oh good grief. I worked a contract in the now shuttered GM Janesville, WI plant. Besides Chevy/GMC Suburbans, the plant manufatured small box trucks. I saw coming off that line both GMC and Mitsubishi trucks. Same materials, same machinery, same workers. Only the badging was different.

Are they gonna check the door jamb to see if my Dodge Dart was made in New Jersey or Windsor, Ontario?

Only the badging was different.

I'll go you one better. Back in the early-mid 80s, a guy I worked for had a brand new General Motors pickup. On one side, the badging was for Chevrolet, on the other, the badging was GMC. Even the interior had both sets of emblems (the steering wheel had the Chevrolet logo, while the dash had the GMC version). The only explanation was that someone forgot to switch the trim on one side of the line. The truck was supposed to be a Chevrolet, and the VIN proved it out, but the badging was all screwed up. The saddest part is nobody cared.
