Glad to hear that you bought a Ford T_bone. I like the idea of buying American however even though your truck was built at the Kentucky plant it still has a significant amount of imported parts. America also has very stiff environmental (EPA) and worker safety laws (OSHA) which costs manufacturers plenty and those costs have to be passed along. Most other countries don't even come close. If Ford didn't also build that vehicle in Mexico your cost would have been much higher. It is still very competitive and a combination of cost control, quality, reliability, and inovation must dominate in order to survive.
