Nissan as much American as either of those companies and their trucks are more reliable, in my experience.

HOWEVER, I had a 91 S10 that wouldn't die no matter how little maintenance I did to it. The doors finally sagged so much I could no longer get in.

Actually ford and gm have spent a ton here over the past few years upgrading plants and bringing a lot of jobs back to the states. Shipping and logistic costs were killing them.

And ya Nissans and others may be built here, but it will still be Japanese coffers that are filled at the end of the day.

maybe i took his "wild" statement different than you. I think he was more in the thinking of Mardi Gras is wild. not wild that you will get killed.

I have a friend that works for Nissan in Nashville, and he has been to Japan many times. even people in Hiroshima and Nagasaki are very friendly to Americans.

I worked for a Japanese company for a few years that had quite a bit of Japanese management onsite. I was not a huge fan of the culture of the company.

"Fun" story: I was working there when 9/11 happened. A lot of the engineering department was in a conference room watching news coverage trying to wrap our head around the attacks, including the senior Japanese management. One of the news anchors made the comment, "This is the largest attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor". The mood in the room was tense.

wasn't mountain dew devolved in Bristol Tn ? way back when it had the guy in the hat ?

The original formula was invented in 1940 by Tennessee beverage bottlers Barney and Ally Hartman and was first marketed in Marion, Virginia; Knoxville, Tennessee and Johnson City, Tennessee with the slogan "Ya-Hoo! Mountain Dew. It'll tickle yore innards."[1] A revised formula

isn't a Dew like a half a cup of coffee too ?
