Fake News.
I beat it. Just bought a new MB 2 months ago. So there! Lol
Nice! Merlins can be “cold blooded!”
Try this:
The guy in the right seat is a long-time friend.
I don’t know where you are, but if you are ever in Salinas, CA go to CalPacific Airmotive at the Salinas Airport and get them to show you around. The own the STC for most of the P-51 models, and have a ten-year backlog to do restorations and modifications (they also hold the STC for several of the two-seat conversions. They did Jack Roushes “B, (”Old Crow”) model, and Roush has a shop in MI that does Merlins for them. My son is an A&P and he says that their work is impeccable. They told us that they have yet to build a P-51 from scratch, but they have all the tooling to make a completely new airframe.

I concur. I seriously doubt the veracity of this story.
I live in Alabama, which is one of the most Pro-Trump states. Mercedes Benz is a major employer and investor.
There is a huge Mercedes plant located outside of Tuscaloosa which employs thousands, including one of my close relatives. They are extremely important to the Alabama economy.
Even Coach Nick Saban, the Alabama Crimson Tide Football Coach owns a couple of large Mercedes dealerships in the state.
I seriously doubt that President Trump would do something that would seriously anger or hurt his loyal base.
Exactly!
So, no more Trabants or Wartburgs?
Auf weidersien!

I call BS to this fake news article. Trump never said he’d push foreign owned companies out of the US.
