Then why do you drive an outsourced car?

Not to start a debate here but I think outsourced/foreign cars are purchased
for their quality and usually cost more than domestic vehicles so the price
isn't the issue (unless we're talking Hyundai/Kia). Most foreign cars are
now built in the USA anyhow and some domestics are in fact outsourcing to
Mexico (I think Dodge?). The argument of foreign vehicles stealing jobs in
the US isn't very valid anymore, and in fact, quite a few of GM and Ford
products are made in Canada while Nissan, Toyota and Honda are making many
car models in the US.

Yep. My Nissan pickup was made in Tennessee, and the Ford small pickups were and
are made in Canada.
