The #USautoIndustry began its assault on those not using its vehicles—pedestrians—in 1920. It blamed road deaths not on drivers but on pedestrians themselves. Pedestrians, cyclists, children playing, street vendors & public transport all used roads prior to the automobile. Now, not so much.

Finley: American made ain't what it used to be American car used to mean something very specific. Not so long ago if you looked out the window and saw a Ford, GM or Chrysler product sitting in the driveway, you could feel certain your car payment was going to help keep your neighbors working and your communities fat with tax dollars. “I drive an American car” was once something quite important to say around here. If it were a Honda or Toyota in your driveway, you weren’t considered a real Detroiter. There were parking lots where your vehicle wasn’t welcome, and even some where it wasn’t safe. Some Big Three auto plants made workers who drove a foreign-made vehicle park it in a separate lot, and they weren’t welcome at all at Solidarity House, the UAW headquarters and other union halls. When we hired auto writers from out of town, it was part of the orientation to advise them, “You might want to trade in that Camry for a Chevy.” Now, American-made has almost nothing to do with whether an automaker is headquartered in Detroit or Tokyo. Trying to make a patriotic vehicle purchase is a frustrating process. You can buy a Buick from General Motors that is built in China, or a Toyota RAV-4 that is made by autoworkers in Kentucky. Where a vehicle is assembled is not a determinant of its nationality. The parts that go into it come from all over the world. My Ford F-150 pickup, the quintessential American vehicle, has a sticker on the windshield boasting it is, “Made Ford Tough and Rouge Strong” at the Dearborn Truck Plant. But one-third of its innards arrived at the Rouge from other countries. On Cars.com’s list of “Most American” vehicles, you have to scan down to No. 9 to find a model made by one of the Domestic Three manufacturers. That’s the Jeep Gladiator, assembled in Toledo. Jeep’s parent company is Stellantis N.V., which claims Hoofddorp, Netherlands as its world headquarters. This is not your grandfather’s Chrysler. Tesla tops the list, which otherwise consists of vehicles made in America, by Americans, in plants owned by foreign automakers working with parts arriving from all over the world. As the Detroit Three took more of their production and jobs outside the nation’s borders, the fierce loyalty of home-towners faded, as did the stigma of owning a foreign-made vehicle. If it is OK for the companies to look for cost savings overseas, why not for us? If you live in Michigan or other places where an automaker has extensive operations, you might buy its vehicles in appreciation of its employment and philanthropic presence. But for everyone else, there’s no virtue in picking one company’s models over the others. President Donald Trump is trying to return the automobile industry to its origins, when Henry Ford made everything from tires to transmissions in one giant manufacturing complex. And he’s using punishing tariffs to make it happen. It won’t work. This is a globally integrated industry. Parts and finished vehicles move back and forth across national borders. Cars and trucks purchased in one country create jobs in another. All cars are American today. And all are foreign. The only real distinction is which international corporation deposits the check. Sign up for the Nolan Out Loud report. This article originally appeared on The Detroit News: Finley: American made ain't what it used to be

Trump warned US automakers not to raise prices due to tariffs The Wall Street Journal (gate) is reporting that Trump has warned US automakers not to raise prices: * Trump told the executives that the White House would look unfavorably on such a move, leaving some of them rattled and worried they would face punishment if they increased prices, people with knowledge of the call said. * Instead, Trump said, they should be grateful for his elimination of what he called President Joe Biden’s electric-vehicle mandate, which involved subsidies and emissions requirements to encourage electric-car production. Automakers in the US say they face a surge in costs due to tariffs on Canada and Mexico - Trump's tariffs apply not only to imported cars but imported parts.
