Lesse.... "redneck" goes to Starbucks while making fun of people who go to Starbucks... ridicules bicycles while bragging about stinky exhaust. Makes sense. (heh)

Well. Yes.

Yes it does.

ETA - You burned you hoarded, well-guarded 30th post since August 2001 on lil' ol' me?

I'm flattered!

Both Lexus and Acura SUVs are made in Canada.

That may be what you meant, but it's not what you wrote. I apologize for assuming you actually wrote what you meant.

Good Lord! When ~~Steinbeck~~ F. Scott Fitzgerald talked about the Green Light at the end of the dock in The Great Gatsby, was he talking about outdoor lighting or money? Was the sign with the Big Eye just overbearing Optometric marketing? Or was it something more?

Did I mean what I wrote or was it a trap?

...and at an accounting department desk, somewhere in or near Seattle, a person of possibly ambiguous sexual identity and probable Democratic pursuasion just made computational note of the almost five dollars flung into the corporate coffers.

Good story? I saw a political and social rant based on flawed info. The automotive and service industry equal to "more thrust per squeeze."

OK, all of these are sold in the US, all are full size SUVs, are nearly as big or bigger than a Chevy Tahoe, and all are built by countries who lost WW2!

Chevy Tahoe is midsized. Excursion and Suburban are full sized SUV's.

Did California lose WW2? Becuase that's who builds most Toyota trucks.

Did France and Mexico lose ww2? Nissan is a french owned company that builds most its vehicles in North America. You sound like a disgruntled UAW autoworker drinking at the VFW post.

Chevy Tahoe — the Most Dependable Full-Size Sport Utility Vehicle according to J.D. Power and Associates

Mid Size? Right. ^^ Thats off Chevy's website

California does not build most toyota trucks. The Drivetrains are almost completely made in Japan.

Toyota has a grand total of TWO factories in Cali.
Operations:
Stamping, body weld, paint, catalytic coating, catalytic converter assembly and steering column assembly Thats all they do. -Toyota's website....Try looking it up

Nissan maintains 2 assembly plants in Mexico:

Aguascalientes producing:

Nissan Sentra,

Tsuru and

Tsubame wagon

Cuernavaca producing

Lucino (2000X)

Tsuru

pick-ups

Nissan currently produces NO SUVs for the US market in Mexico.

Got anything factual to respond with?
