Ford looks to be top in most assembled in the US. However where do the parts come from? To determine the best cost value (ignoring quality) you’d have to break down the import costs for everything based on origin and see which US assembled car is less impacted. Or if it’s just cheaper to buy a totally imported car made somewhere else.
I have a feeling that American labor in each step of the supply chain is gonna be the key factor that drives up the final price of a car, combined with the tariff added cost of raw materials and/or components that can’t or won’t be made in the USA. It’ll be interesting to watch, especially considering how the idiot-in-chief has been meddling with the CHIPS program office and how that may impact ongoing efforts to expand production state-side.
The problem with buying American is that your best options are brands like Ford. You know what Ford stands for? Fix it again Tony.
Can’t wait for the King of the Hill reboot or whatever it is. Should be out some time this year.
