Really? All of them? Care to apply that to the Cadillac CTS which beats out all "foreign" competition, except the BMW 3-series?

And let's talk about Ford's Ecoboost engine that has the horsepower mavens smiling, and the govt very pleased with Ford's increased CAFE standards.

Now if you want to talk about American assembly instead of American engineering, I can say we have perfectly good late-model Mercedes that was assembled in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, by American workers who did a damn fine job, I must add.

I could go on, but facts are boring, if not in some cases, humiliating.
