I feel like there have been many discissions on how “American” the Ram HD trucks are . Something something Italian owned corporation and a vehicle assembled in Mexico.

IMO, associating a vehicle with a single nation is a bit dishonest. Truthfully, it’s such a global economy and all those little components are made all around the world so we should just accept that it’s a joint effort or something like that.

Does Greenland make auto parts?

Echo51 > vondon302

Danish and brake-related? Likely SBS part

Some of that Nordic immigration he pines for.

The only auto parts I know of made in Denmark are Roulunds brakes (now mostly made in China and India) and Nissens radiators

Too late, he’s already fired off 3 tweets, Chrysler’s stock has halved in value and several Chargers have been set ablaze.

Kinja'd!!!

Now that you mention Roulund, their old test track was half an hour from me , with a heavy banking to assist in high-speeds for testing of brakes. Sadly demolished now after they redid the highway past it.

But I think their operating headquarters is in England... maybe

Or he’ll make them American by buying Denmark completely

vondon302 > Snuze: Needs another Swede
08/22/2019 at 14:36

I think that's the finance headquarters.

Nice Grand Cherokee/Durango parking brake shoes.

I personally would have bought 68273494AA and 68273495AA for about the same price and gotten the whole backing plate, hardware, shoes, etc.

But if you buy em all separately you can get a higher book rate.

But, how would you make everything in to a political statement/decision that way?!

My FIL (he’s the farthest thing from a Trumpeter) continues buying Ford Escapes because he “can’t bring himself to buy a non-American car”. Pointed out that there are a whole variety of other vehicles made in the US for his choosing, but nope that’s the hill he’s camping up on.

This is bullshit. The Dut ch don’t even know anything about capitalism. They’re socialists.

The Danes yes but the Dutch always liked to make money.

I can understand Oklahomans not knowing Denmark from the Netherlands, but in the uk? That'd be like me thinking a Hooiser was from Pennsylvania..

I can’t decide whether this is discouraging (people are stupid everywhere, not just in the US) or encouraging (my fellow countrymen are apparently not as hopelessly ignorant as I thought)..
