Last I knew, Canada was in North America. It's not in the US, but it IS American.

And my American branded car was made in the USA. So was my American branded truck. But I'm just as proud to drive my German and British cars...

"So are you PROUD to be driving a MADE IN AMERICA CAR?"

On my map, Canada and Mexico are both in America...North America.

Not sure any of that 'story' is worth getting excited about. I have 3 cars:
Vette made in KY, BMW made in SC, (with a good portion of parts from Germany), and the
CEO's Hyundai Tuck made in Seoul.

This isn't about buying junk at Walmart made in China. The car biz and car manufacturing, is international in scope.

All cars are built internationally. Also the companies do have a lot of jobs in the us. Also mine was built in America.

I drive a great North American car as well.. a Corolla...from Cambridge Ontario.

Won't catch me driving one of those Mexican made jobs though.

Don't care where its made so long as its made well! To be honest, if it was made in Iran and it outlast all others and it is a good value to cost, I''ll buy it.

One guy, in America, put the engine of my car together.

Am I proud? No, I really don't care. I usually go American because I prefer the styling and the cars tend to be more interesting.

I'm just proud I own a car forget whatever it is. And Japanese cars aren't really Japanese with all the Honda and Toyota plants here in the US. Seriously who gives a rats ass anymore about where a car is built. We all have our likes/dislikes on cars over styling, price, quality, etc. and we all have had different experiences with different cars. Why nitpick over such a subjective issue.
