A better definition of terms might be in order.

Remember, Mexico and Canada are just as much a part of America as the 
USA, which even though better known as The United States of America, 
actually bears the official name of Columbia although most people 
never use the name.




Now:    How many of you out there knew that the name of the country 
we live in is actually Columbia?

...the only place it's ever actually (usually) evident is in the name 
of the Capital of the country (District of Columbia).


Anyway, a car built in Mexico or Canada is just as American as one 
built in Detroit.    Just thought I'd mention it.
