Replying to: lemko (May 12, 2009 6:52 am) I'm sure they're capable of it, but they probably keep the good stuff that they make in their own country, and just send the ultra-cheap stuff over to us! And the reason we get that cheap stuff? Because there's a demand for it!

Replying to: lemko (May 12, 2009 6:52 am) Not Crescent wrench too? In all fairness. I was looking at the new Fiskars hedge trimmers at Lowes. They are now made in China. I cannot tell the difference in fit and finish from my old Made in USA pair. I am glad I have all the tools I will ever need. But some of the stuff they are making now will rival what we have made. It was only a matter of time. Same as with early Japanese vehicles that were junk. Sorry Lemko, you may have the last USA made Buick in your garage right now. I would imagine it has at least 20% Chinese parts.

Replying to: ruking1 (May 12, 2009 8:51 am) Then there are the *ahem* folks who consider it American if ithas a Ford, GM, or Chrysler badge, no matter that it was designed, tested, and built in South Korea from parts that were sourced there and China.

Assembled here 2. amount of American-sourced content 3..they are designed here (unless you do not consider LA part of America) 4.and you have got the range of no body cares to some body cares who builds it 5. and or where the parts come from. As for the "ahem" folks.... well while they might let the facts get in the way, the facts speak for themselves.
