So you are willing to pay $25-30k a more for a new car? That is how much it cost. I am not. Unions are maga Trump supporters building inferiority cars that cost 60-100% more vs foreign manufactured cars. We need to drop all tariffs and let Americans buy high quality cars for 1/2 the price.
+1 BYD is selling well in Europe now.

There you go.
Most of their parts, not all, made in USA or unstamped.
Roll down windows, no speakers, no radio, no screens, rear wheel drive only, etc.
Noble idea. But a vehicle stripped down this much still costs 28k?
Roll down windows were better.

Yes, it matters. We should be making them here. No one is saying that they can't be made elsewhere, too, but we need to be making them here.

It really doesn't matter. All cars are made from things from different places. If you are talking about assembly, increasingly that will be done by robotics and automation. So assembly is not a huge source of future jobs regardless.

My F150 had 400k miles on it before it died. There is a reason the the F150 is or was the most sold vehicle in the US.
