There’s no such thing as a 100% American-made car.

True. But we can have meaningful discussions about which cars have the most value coming from American labor. I'd be fine with considering that a car which has 51% of its value coming from American operations to be "American made".

No - but having the factories/supply chains based on American soil is an advantage for us versus a deficit.
