Agreed.

This is about the UAW. Not collective bargaining in general.

And the UAW is famously bad news. Its the best example we've got of a union that completely jumped the shark and nearly destroyed its own industry.

I'm pretty sure that almost every Toyota that is made these days for sale in the US is more American than any American car I've every owned (save my 1966 Mustang).

I owned 3 models of the 4th-Gen F-body (Camaro/Firebird). It's a Camaro - the "All-American Muscle Car", right? Not really.

The LS1 engine in those cars was made at the St. Catharines engine plant in Ontario, Canada.
The Tremec T-6 transmission was made in Mexico (Tremec is a Mexican company).
The radio was German.
The shocks were Swedish.
And it was all assembled at the St. Therese assembly plant in Quebec, Canada.

So, yeah - this car is an import car.

Mustang is easily doable. Very simple cars. And cheap if you don't go for a "numbers matching" or rare one. Get one with some problems. Parts are cheap, and a philips screwdriver, 3 sizes of sockets, and a crescent wrench takes the entire car apart.
