Still Made in the USA

Off Topic

Donā€™t want to revive an old thread, but it must be done. This topic is near and dear to me, and should be to all Americans.

Lots of products are still made in the US. It now requires more research than ever before due to peoples buying habits, but nevertheless, very much accomplishable.

National news (canā€™t remember which show) had a recent story about a contractor who builds houses with ALL material being American-made. He had to do a lot of searching, but was able to find everything, including nails and drywall screws. He said that was one of the biggest challenges. But he found a company and found out through experience that the nails are noticeably better. They jam the nail gun far less frequently. I donā€™t remember the exact number, but it only cost a couple percent more.

The joke goes like this:

You can buy a MiM Strat ā€“ Made in Mexico by Mexicans

or, you can buy an American Strat ā€“ Made in the US by Mexicans :wink:

Does that have the 12" radius fretboard?

So where do you guys place cars like the Camry or the BMW X5 that are made in the U.S.?

My Remington 12 gauge and my Carhartt jacket that I forced my parents to buy me. I wouldnā€™t allow them to buy me anything made in China.

They donā€™t count in my book. Theyā€™re still a foreign to me. Itā€™s fucked up that more Toyotas are made in America than Chevy trucks (mostly in Mexico and Canada).

Is that right? I somehow remember visiting a Peavey plant in Croyden PA back in '82.

I think it is great. Doesnā€™t have to be an American name to be have production jobs here. They are manufacturing jobs and that is what America needs. Plus it provides for more competition which is better for the consumer.
Among other reasonss.

You Steelers fans are true fanatics. So much so that you, as a group, should be included in this thread.

Made in America: Steelers fans.

I drank a decent beer up there once, canā€™t remember what is was called and hoping you can helpā€¦ local to Pittsburgh and a lager. Called Iron something I think, maybe Steel thoughā€¦

Steelers fans are the towns number one export!

And Iron is best drank by sipping the foam down, then plunking a shot of Jim Beam- including the glass- into it, then knocking the whole thing down in one gulp. For ambiance, do this in a dark bar that smells of toilet soap and toaster oven hoagies, about 12 times in a row.

A car bomb, love them and dank bars too! The best pool games happen at the stinky ones.

Technically itā€™s a boilermaker. Car bombs are a variation of a boilermaker.

Add Jack Daniels and Jim Beam to the list of things still made in 'Merica.

All mercedes M-class suvā€™s are made in alabama, most of your v6 hondas (van and accord) and the majority of the chevrolet volt is made in the USā€¦
