Afraid not - Canada is a bilingual country - French and English.

Yup, it's really hard to tell these days. A lot of vehicles are made in Mexico too. The new Buick Regal will be made in Germany for a year or two.

I saw in the news recently that the car with the highest content of U.S. made parts is the Toyota Camry. Ford had three models at the top of the list for the lowest % of American made parts.

No wonder the gas pedals stick!

It used to happen in my old '62 Plymouth but nobody made a stink about it.
