Quote: Steve, do you buy the more expensive shoe just because it's American made? I don't think so.

I don't know if Steve does, but Marcos, there are many in America who will buy only products made by American workers. It works that way with cars, for example. People in my own family have bashed me for buying a Honda because they say I should be supporting American workers. When I went to Oklahoma last summer for a camping trip, I saw very few foreign cars. Heh, I felt like an outcast zipping around in my little Honda. I have tried American small cars and foreign small cars and I prefer foreign ones because overall, they run better and don't cost me as much in repairs. I have had three or four small American cars, and they all sucked. As far as trucks, though, I would definitely buy American because they are the superior product as far as trucks go. Again, I've had both foreign and domestic .
