And how on earth can it be cheaper to box up an alternator, ship it down to mexico to have a person spend 15 minutes labor on it, box it back up and ship it back to an auto parts store in the USA than to just rebuild them here?
I guess because they ship them down there by the truck load. A friend of mine had a battery/starter/alternator shop for 40 years and was busier than a one legged well digger for the whole time. Rebuilt everything electrical for cars/trucks/heavy equipment.
Their excuses to move overseas just does not cut it with me. What pees me off is the CEO’s and BOD’s of all these companies worship their god, money, and do not give a damn about Americans, the very people they expect to buy their crap.
