Besides, with the globalization of the supply chain, that "American" car may be as American as a Siberian Tiger.

Very true!

My Ford truck has a Japanese diesel engine (with an American fuel injection pump and German injectors), a German transmission, both Japanese and German electronics, and American axles, all put together on a Virginian assembly line....

My son has a Chevy Cavalier with a Canadian engine, and more Japanese electronics than Panasonic!

I would "Buy American", but HOW?

(Answer: Honda or Toyota...)

What Ford truck do you have that has a Japanese diesel engine?

[B Knotts]

I think I figured it out.

You have an '83-86 Ford Ranger with either the 2.2 l Mazda or 2.3 l Mitsubishi diesel.

Am I right? There can't be a lot of those around.
