          Well, as of Jan 2025 that eliminates all American car brands.

            As of years before World War 2, Henry Ford was a fucking nazi.

              Yeah there are some good car parts made here, but then they get installed in the worst designs and build quality since 1970s Britain.

            Yep, (and even if not for him we did have Andrew Jackson once) German, Japanese, and south Korean are out too. Italy is doubly eliminated.

            You mean Ford and Holden (GM)? I love the idea of utes, especially instead of to dozers we have in the US, but their cars mostly 1960s evolved tech, until they started sticking Japanese motors in some of the Holdens in the 90s.

              Yup those two manufacturers, and don’t forget the mighty Barra

              https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Barra_engine

              Absolutely amazing unit those things,

                Yeah, I’ve seen lots of Mighty Car Mods and Skid Factory about them, in the US LS engines make too much sense to bother with a L6 of any kind.

                  Yeah that’s fair, and tbh at one point you could pretty much look in a bin a fine a perfectly serviceable barra just good for the using 😂

        The Texas factory is nearly twice as big as the CA one, is where the Cybertruck is made, and is the HQ of Tesla ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
