I read a report about US made vehicles recently, maybe it was posted here, I don't remember, the report listed the top 30 vehicles with the most US made parts.

That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
