The reality is there are no more 'domestic' cars and most of the 'imports' really aren't

True. Our 2002 Mazda was built in Michigan, and our 2008 Toyota Camry was built in Kentucky.

I know what you mean. I still have this 'aversion' to foreign cars and I know it's just nostalgia. But then again, I'm still waiting for the Packard to come back. ;~))

Full disclosure: My dad worked for a Packard dealer when I was young. Dad told me that Cadillac was a swear word and those Caddys were only Chevys with chrome-plated lock washers.

Who's to argue with dad? ;~))

And damn, I wish I had that 38 Packard Roadster that was the first car I remember riding in.
